lol at Edwin's agent. They had an offer and chose to decline so they could test the market, and then he takes issue with the fact that they Jays decided to visit the market so quickly.. I notice he makes no mention of a counter-offer being made to the Jays...., nor a request that he asked the Jays for a couple of days to get one to them.

His agent is also spouting off B.S. that 5 teams are currently offering 4 year contracts. Lol 2-tool players overvaluing themselves.

Signing a 3 year deal with an optout after 1 with the a's seems like a mortal lock at this point

Yeah, numerous people put Randy Johnson on the Expos when he didn't do anything for them. Nobody mentioned Dawson.

Johnson on the Expos was signifying which franchise had 4 guys who did the most after leaving.

Expos: Vlad, Marquis Grissom, Pedro Martinez, ?

I think of Walker as a Rockie, and Hawk a Cub.

26/3 nova to stay with the pirates

excellent signing and should be a useful trade chip if they go that route (unless they actually figure he's important to their rebuilding which...shrug)

Gary Carter is the right answer for the 4th Expo, and shame on you all for having Grissom but not Carter on your list there.

Pedro was only in Montreal for like 5 years. If I weren't Canadian, I'd probably not even have Pedro on the Expos Rushmore tbh.

Carter was a Met who, for whatever reason, was a huge investor in the booming early 80's company Soul Glo.

Carter played 1500 games with the Expos and 600 with the Mets

Gary Carter, Tim Raines, Andre Dawson, Steve Rogers

Had to look up Steve Rogers. Apparently Captain America was a spy, who infiltrated an awful Canuck baseball team.

TBE, you gotta chill on the indignation if you yourself can't even see fit to put Staub in there

Every old Expos fan would probably like to slap you or whatever French Canadians do to express vigorous disagreement
