Thomson to Toronto, Lopez to Colorado

Two guys who have had some fan support here have landed elsewhere, according to Rotoworld. Thomson reportedly gets only $500,000 guaranteed, but there is no word on incentives. Lopez signed a non-guaranteed deal with incentives that could take his price to $1.6 million.

Thomson wouldn't have been a horrible option, but these two guys have a lot of questions surrounding them.

Would be nice if we could get Mulder
for that price.

This should help the market a little bit though on the rest of the free agent pitchers.

I'm not sure how...
either of these signings will set a market.

Yeah
Thomson was the last resort for teams who didn't even want to spend what Armas, Ohka, Weaver, etc. will cost. I assume that Toronto was just the first to give up and go to their last resort. And Lopez is either done or real close to it.

Granted, a lot of teams aren't going to pay
Weaver what he wants. He probably thinks he'll still be able to get close to $10 a year.

That Marquis signing is looking real good now. lol. Meche even better.

Thomson
I would have liked to have gotten him back at that price.
