Awesome! We get to give him an official send-off this year. At least he said earlier that if he plays in '10, it will be his final year. An awesome player in his prime!

Now he exercises an option which is unlikely to be picked up by the champs. WTF is he thinking?

He was on national television during the WS and thinks that someone is gonna look at that and pick him up for more money.
