Who's gonna sign him? Great pitcher, but too high dollar and on the downhill slide. Batting, and not his pitching, saved him this year.

| He's already said he wants to be finish out his career closer to home, which is somewhere in southern california I believe. The Padres already passed on him, the Giants can't afford him, the Dbacks are in saving mode, and I haven't heard any interest from the Dodgers yet. I'm thinking probably the St Louis Cardinals since they've probably got the money and are a winning team. He's going to have to lower his demands both in terms of money and years if he wants more choices. |

The cardinals cant avoid him under most any circumstances. Also I wonder if I''m the only one here who thinkgs gred maddux has been a pretty overrated for much of his career. |

| heh I think you just might be the only one. I've always appreciated the way he pitches with so much accuracy as opposed to a lot pitchers nowadays relying on power and movement. I hope he significantly lowers his demands and comes to the Giants. |

If by accuaracy you mean having a much bigger strike zone than almost any other pitcher than sure. He's one of the biggest arguments for questec, but thats another matter entirely. |

| lol I guess you could say that but I haven't really noticed that. But if that's the case I'd say he's earned it, despite the unfairness of it all. Doesn't look like my Giants are going to get him since we just signed Brett Tomko. |

Hmmm ... who else are Braves gonna unload? Castilla? What a great baseball club, now completely FALLING APART! I guess there will not be a 13 season division wins streak ... what a shame ... so many memories ... so few to NONE World Series wins ... precious. At least they had a great 2003 season that was completely different from all other streaking seasons. Oh well, I'll always be a Braves fan ... I cant forget all the memories. Funny to note that Braves went from dead last in 1990 to first overall in 1991, when Soviet Union collapsed, and now their legacy is over, too.
I'd say Maddux will sign with Cubbies (go to hell!) or Padres. |
