Re: Signing Bard?
What do you mean? They signed him and gave him a 1.5 m signing bonus.

I've looked but maybe you know: are there any stats anywhere, or at least reports coming in from your end about how those guys (Bard in particular) are doing? |

Re: Signing Bard?
There are no stats anywhere but I get the stats and reports from people who are down there and then report them back to us.

no they didn't. really no reason to when they got Weeden and Anderson for the price it may have cost to sign Laporta. |

Re: Signing Bard?
Wasn't he ranked one of the top hitters in the draft? And didnt we get him relatively late?

He slipped because of injury and we got him late. But for the money he wanted it wasn't worth it when they got Ty Weeden and Lars Anderson signed for less than what Laporta wanted. |

Re: Signing Bard?
To add to what Jsinger said, Jon Sickels along with some others actually had Lars Anderson rated higher than Laporta, and he cost much less to sign. Anderson has alot to prove but hes an exciting young player.
