The previously highest paid player in franchise history was Carmelo Martinez, who made $490,000 back in 1989.
Read More...Chase Headley said he “didn‘t know how to respond” Wednesday afternoon after learning that the Padres are planning to offer their star third baseman a multi-year contract that would make him the highest-paid player in franchise history.

He's coming back?
Amazing that he's been on 7(8) franchises already, and he's only 28.
The Blue Jays might have $$$ burning a hole in their pocket, but I doubt they spend it on too many players. They've already been making noises about cutting payroll.
I think the Tigers will bring back Boesch.. but they won't go into the season with Boesch, Dirks, Berry as the only corner OF options. They'll sign someone like Ross or Hunter to start in a corner and hit lefties, or trade for similar. A Justin Upton trade would not suproise me, but they don't have the pieces as far as I can tell (Porcello and something?) I'd be happy if the resigned Sanchez, but very surprised. I'd love to see them try to trade for Haren instead. I see the Tigers adding a reliever, too.
Also, it's splitsville for Delta Burke and Major Dad.
I do see them instead taking "buy low" trades that other teams want to dump for salary concerns. Like Marco Scutaro and AJ Burnett last year.
Jackson is on the Octavio Dotel power tour. Is Jackson some kind of head case, I'm amazed that a pitcher of his ability/potential keeps getting moved around so often.
Surprisingly, Delta Burke and Major Dad are still married, 21 years after that episode aired.
This is a bigger upset than Omar Vizquel ending up having a longer career than Carl Yastrzemski.
