ill take a contract back obviously, but only if hes off the books when the year is through. dont care how dead he is, ill let him sit in my minors. id take mueller back, but id want a little better spect, since assuming id have to take on lofton too, which i dont mind since he is indeed off the books at the end of the year.
id also take chan ho park back, but im barely under the allotted amount available, so youd have to take doug mientkiewicz or somebody back, to match it up financially. still, it would give you about 6.5 mil to make another move if you so chose.
