In response to "What's David Ortiz's contract status?" by Will Hunting

I'm pretty sure he doesn't have a No Trade clause...

Posted by Mel Profit (aka Mel Profit) Jun 2 '09, 08:41

and I doubt he's a 10-5 guy.

Responses:

Why wouldn't he be a 10-5 guy? - musubi Jun 2, 08:49 2
- It's the 10 part I'm not sure about. -- nm - Mel Profit Jun 2, 09:04 1
  - He had enough cups of coffee with Minnesota to have played 12 years now. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 09:10
Is he just done? Is it time for him to retire? - amoxy Jun 2, 08:43 25
- I think he's done... - Mel Profit Jun 2, 08:47 22
  - He's signed through next year with a club option for '11. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 08:48 21
    - Agreed on your IM. He seemed like a genuinely nice guy and was a great hitter - amoxy Jun 2, 08:50 1
      - He's been nothing but good for the Team, the City and hopefully the Sport. -- nm - Mel Profit Jun 2, 09:02
    - I really can't stand it... - Mel Profit Jun 2, 08:50 18
      - I just can't think of something similar from a 33 year old. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 08:51 17
        
        40 year olds don't fall off this quick. It might be age, but this doesn't fit *any* pattern. (nm) - musubi Jun 2, 08:52
        
        Mo Vaughn? Albert Belle? nm -- nm - groiny Jun 2, 08:52 13
        
        vaughn maybe....but that was direct injury (tricep?)...same with Belle's hip degenerating. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 08:54 7
        
        That's what age is though. Sans injury, just age doens't make you fall off a cliff. - musubi Jun 2, 08:57 6
        
        Belle's not in the same category for me at all. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 08:59 5
        
        Of course. But at 25, they have no career baseline of excellent performance. Point being, once that baseline is established, simple age - musubi Jun 2, 09:02 2
        
        Body slows down by natural aging process = cheating on fastballs and missing badly on everything else. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 09:06 1
        
        Natural aging simply *does not* explain going from an near all-star level to below replacement level. - musubi Jun 2, 09:11
        
        I suspect those Trick Or Treaters put a curse on him. -- nm - David Jun 2, 09:00 1
        
        Or any of the other random people he was an ass to. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 09:02
        
        Nomar? nm -- nm - groiny Jun 2, 08:53 4
        
        Glenn Davis? nm -- nm - groiny Jun 2, 08:54 3
        
        *cries* - Will Hunting Jun 2, 08:55 2
        
        30+ homers in the astrodome, doe snot hit 30 in 4 seasons after the trade. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 2, 08:56 1
        
        Yeah, that's a good one. I forget why he started sucking, if there was a reason. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 2, 08:57
        
        Andruw. -- nm - David Jun 2, 08:52 1
        
        At least with Andrew there were visible signs though. - musubi Jun 2, 09:00
- he has big man syndrom, they dont gradually decline, they just fall off the deep end. - tRuMaN Jun 2, 08:46
- Bill Simmons has the question of how old he really is instead of the roids. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 08:45
I think he's a 10-5 guy, but i can't see any circumstances the Sox could trade him at current. - Will Hunting Jun 2, 08:43
