Cain - 4 years, 8 mil per

Sign Duke.

Once I find out on Cain I'll deal with the rest... gotta see what Cain's gonna sign for before I figure out who I'm bringing back and for what.

[Providence A's]

Duke - signed
Cain - I want more money! Slowly, I am getting impatient.

[nick]

Cain - 12 mil, 4 years

[Providence A's]

Cain - I want more money! I am pretty close to breaking off negotiations.

[nick]

17 mil, 4 years

[Providence A's]

signed...you have about $16 mil left for extensions after that deal.

[nick]

Phew. Thanks for the heads up bro, appreciate it.

Go ahead and sign Barrett too for what he's asking for.

Figure he'll be my starter until Andersen's ready, and then fall into the backup role.

The rest I'm going to wait on for awhile.

Thanks man!

[Providence A's]

Barrett - signed

[nick]

Thanks.


Check and see what MR Merkin Valdez wants.

[Providence A's]

Valdez - probably test the market, offer?

[nick]

Try 2 mil over 2 years

[Providence A's]

Valdez - the amount of $ is not enough. mood isn't too bad, next offer.

[nick]

Best to start now if possible...

Jon Papelbon - try him as a closer and as a starter if you don't mind?

Also, how much in extensions do I have after the trades I made?

If you haven't entered all of the trades in yet, it's no biggie. I'll wait until after the sim to negotiate.

thank you!
