I was around then the poll was first posted, and the Washington Times had already leaked salary information (although it was not known to all, I posted it in the comments on Nationals Journal). I still think it's a decent deal, just becuase we guarantee ourselves an okay shortstop (as opposed to the other crap on the market right now outside of Furcal, who's injured).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00096823960889095209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4745915579093042618.post-33741161371256189762008-07-23T09:15:00.000-04:002008-07-23T09:15:00.000-04:00Also I wonder how much of that 82% approval was re...Also I wonder how much of that 82% approval was registered before the price became known?<BR/><BR/>The word "extension" probably got a lot of people thinking $4 million instead of $8 million.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4745915579093042618.post-15312883253229814982008-07-23T09:11:00.000-04:002008-07-23T09:11:00.000-04:00I guess I can live with the Guzman deal, and I'm t...I guess I can live with the Guzman deal, and I'm <A HREF="http://www.nationalspride.com/columnists/post.cfm?blog=hendo&id=93&story=whether+they+knew+it+or+not" REL="nofollow">trying to look at the positives</A>.<BR/><BR/>But I'm also trying to wrap my brain around that $8 million per year.
