James Woods?

Wood is the new boner?
"We are the JeDi, the ultimate power in the universe. We will do as we choose. And we will destroy any who dare stand in our way."
But at over ten million, according to MLBTradeRumors.com
Given our recent monetary plunges, and more importantly, the fact he’s a relief pitcher, I’m thinking it probably wouldn’t have been worth it for us.

At 10MM+
No way. That’s something I couldn’t see the Angels doing.
Wonder what the market for Cordero looks like now?
Still liking Kerry Wood for the last (cheap) bullpen addition.

Ya, I'm liking the Wood idea more and more.
Besides, the last name Wood has to be redeemed in Angels lore.
By replacing one
flameout with another?

Way more than 3Wood for sure
Just watched his 20K performance again. Eerie similarities between his game and Ervin’s no-hitter performance. Both came down to a scorer’s discretion.
Lost in that awesome performance of Wood’s back in 98, was that he yielded no walks and it was barely a 1-hitter. If the scorer ruled differently, that 20K game would have been even more spectacular as a no-no.
Then it seemed all downhill for the kid after that.

I remember reading somewhere
That Kerry Wood is actually the name of Brandon Wood’s dad. Weird coincidence or what?

Cordero, hails no
His peripherals are declining horribly, and he’s likely to be way overpaid. Same story with Lidge (that BB/9 of his is really ugly). Kerry Wood seems like a solid addition; like others have said, he could serve as a veteran mentor/setup man type.

I wasn't suggesting
that the Angels should sign Cordero.
I’m hoping JeDi makes a run at Wood while most eyes are turned to Cordero to see where he will sign.

I would have liked Madson on a 1 year deal(although it is a 10+ million dollar 1 year deal)
But at the same time, I can’t get too upset over it considering everything the Angels have done this offseason.
I hope this means we make a move at Wood

NOTICE
i have just flagged every post with the mention of Wood in it
becasue your all crazy
Nothing says Sundays like the thump of an Andy Lee punt followed by the frantic backpedaling of a return man.

One source says its for $10 million and another one has it for $8.5 million
LA Angels 2012 Champions!
Law of averages.
$9.25 million.
Done and done.

Good signing for the Reds
Would have loved to see the Angels get him but I doubt another 8.5 million was in the budget.
Nor should it have been in the budget.
8.5 million is WAY too much for a reliever.

Boras really f***** this up for his client
"You realize that Ive been posting on AN since 07 on this name and I am one of the most rec'ed posters there right?" - Some tool named Designatedforassignment from Athletics Nation
Yeah, if the 4/44 rumors are anywhere close to being true...
Boras really screwed the pooch. And, by “the pooch”, I mean Ryan Madson.
Winning doesn't matter. -Lyle
I wonder if this screwing will effect the Fielder situation

I was wondering that, too.
I doubt it, but perhaps Prince feels a bit more urgency now?

on the fielder to dodgers fanshot I added some more links
To further cloud the skies and indicate that it probably did not effect the Boras process

Thanks for the links.
I love how close together in time, yet far apart in content, they are.
