Newhart - signed
Zumaya - more years! mood isn't too bad.
Tartamella - $ not enough! slowly, getting impatient.
Banta - signed
Azevedo - signed

I'm not sure what you wanted to do with Barnes. you listed both "offer the same as Tartamella" and "no offer." Your whole post was confusing as you quoted me and didn't fix it when you added your own offers making it so I was the one saying the whole thing

Sorry about that. You read it right. You wrote offer the same as Tartamella and I wrote no offer on the next line. I should have done something to differentiate between what you wrote and my response.

Try 3 million per for 2 years for Zumaya please,

Try 6 million per for 2 years for Tartamella please.

Thanks.

I didn't write "offer the" same as Tartamella...I had wrote "same as Tartamella" so "offer the" got added, which was why it was confusing. If it was left as "same as Tartamella" then I would have seen that was exactly what I typed, but it wasn't.

Zumaya - $ not enough! mood isn't too bad.
Tartamella - longer contract...close to breaking off negotiations.

[OrioleMagic]

Sorry about that.

Please resign Zumaya to a 2 year deal. The pitching sucks in pending FA, so I will pay more than I would like to now. Offer 4 million per for 2 years and then go up 500k at a time. Thanks.

I am going to let Tartamella go to FA and work with Diaz/Burg/LeClaire next year. Thanks!

[Providence A's]

I followed your directions and now he won't talk.

$4 mil x 2 = more $! mood isn't too bad.
$4.5 mil x 2 = more $! slowly, getting impatient.
$5 mil x 2 years = more $! close to breaking off negotiations.
$5.5 mil x 2 years = ice is getting thinner.
$6 mil x 2 years = you had your chance.

[OrioleMagic]

Thanks anyway. If he will take 7 mil for 2 years after the next sim, lets give that a try. I'd do even 8 mil at this point. Thanks.

[Providence A's]

I tried $8 mil x 2 years now and he still said "you had your chance."

[OrioleMagic]

and so it goes... Please try after each sim until we are done. If he insists on going to FA, that is just the way the ball bounced. I guess he forgot he is turning 36 and asking for a contract that ends when he is almost 38.

[Providence A's]

he said the same thing after the final sim.

[OrioleMagic]

Thanks anyway!
