It seems like we're damned if we do, and damned if we don't. I can't stand the thought of Thome playing elsewhere, and we get nothing to show for it. He's the last of the great Tribe hitters from the 90's, and maybe the best now.

But, I don't want to hear Dolan crying poor when the contracts for the next wave of stars come up.
He said he would expand the payroll again after the re-building process has taken place, and I'm holding him to it.
