He deserves it! He did a fantastic job managing them after the break. My only complaint is him not playing Brett Wallace too much down the stretch. That made me scratch my head a bit.

I think he is trying to raise Carlos Lee’s trade value by showing he can play 1st base well so that maybe we can trade him.

That’s the funny thing though. Who would want that contract? Seriously I would trade him and that contract to any team in baseball for a jelly donut, which I would in turn throw at Tim Purpura.

Throw in $15 million and you might have a deal. But I wouldn’t throw the most expensive jelly donut in history at Purpura.

Itll be just like the Oswalt and Berkman deals, throw in som money for a prospect and to get out from under the contract. That and to open up 1st base for Wallace

To celebrate his new extension, I wonder if he’ll discover St Lucia

Happy to hear this. He absolutely got the very best out of what he had-and the team obviously kept playing for him too. They started off so poorly, it looked like they were headed for 100 loses.
