A KONERKO OF GREAT PRICE
Via BTF, it has been reported that the White Sox have offered Paul Konerko a four-year, $52M deal. For those without calculators installed in their heads, that comes out to $13M per year.
According to the article, Paulie's first choice is a five-year deal, and he will likely test the market regardless of the ChiSox offer, but I think this story represents good news for the Angels. The White Sox have clearly made re-signing Konerko a priority, and $13M is a huge offer for a man of his talents.
There's just no way the Angels are going to be stupid enough to outbid them on this.
Right?

Comments:
Another stumbling block to the Angels signing Konerko, it was reported, is his insistence on a strict no trade clause. In the past, the Angels have been reluctant to agree to anything but very limited no-trade provisions in free agent contracts.
