Would you take a shot a Jason Bay for a 1 year deal.
do you think he is a steroid guy that is broken down and done
or
just back luck and injuries.. He needs a new start fresh Start.
We need a RH bat with power and are limited with cash..
I am not sure I would but if he is cheap why not give it a try
Sounds like a project for a second division or rebuilding team. I could see the Cubs or Astros being good fits. If he signs a low cost 1 year deal with incentives and a team option, they have the potential to get back a prospect if he performs and he gets a guaranteed chance at redemption. Plus both teams play in good hitting environments.
If the Phillies want to take a rebound gamble they should be courting Melky. That's a first division option.
No
**** to the NO! Is this even serious?
we already essentially have him.... John Mayberry Jr.
No Bay Jose'!
Booooo. ;)Quote:

That being said, I wouldn't sign him until after I've addressed the other 2 OF spots and 3B with the guys expected to be in the Opening Day lineup. I'd probably wait and see if he were still out there around January 31st.
Fair enough. I don't think he will be though. A team like the Astros or Cubs will give him a small guaranteed deal to see if he can turn into a trade asset.
Back, Luck, & Injuires kind of sound like steroid after-effects to me
the point is to get better. No to Bay.
The man is fantastic. I would like my team to sign him again if they get another shot at him.
