How much will each free agent get?

[Jeffy25]

How much will each player get, and where do you think they will go?

Just bold your predictions next to the player and copy and paste the list.

I will keep score of who was right the most and how close you were on your predictions of salary and years.

you get 5 points for guessing the right team, 3 points for being within 20 percent of the annual salary amount and 2 points for guessing the total number of years

50. Rafael Betancourt - 3 years/18 million/Phillies

Note=some of my picks mean others won't work, i made them just for points. Obviously the Nationals won't be signing both Hudson and Lopez, and the Yankees won't be signing three leftfielders

[OregonDuck1989]

Is bujillion a fiscal amount? Cause that's how much Scott Boras would like for Holliday.

you should bold the contracts Ewing to make it easier to read

[ewing6]

done

[Red Sox Fan 734]

We should make one thats all yankees and see how high on the leaderboard they are at the end of the year :P

[Jeffy25]

You can just remove Tim Wakefield, sorry, forgot he was already signed, anyone else on this list already signed?

[grasshopper]

Hate to say it but Yanks are going to make a big time play for Holliday. If they can sign him vs. Damon, bye bye Damon. Matsui has already said that he will take a paycheck cut to keep at DH. Damon had a fantastic season, but age kills him from a big contract. Pettitte is as good as signed. Hughes/ Wang/ Chamberlain can fight it out over the 4th and 5th spot.

I think that is all Jeffy, I just wrote N/A next to him, haha.
