High Hawpe
It looks like the Rockies are about to extend Brad Hawpe.
The National League champion Rockies, locking up another of their homegrown players, are on the verge of signing right fielder Brad Hawpe to a three-year contract worth approximately $17.5 million.
This will replace the contract he signed recently.
The Baseball Musings Pledge drive continues through March. Please consider making a donation.
re: rockies sign up key players
gee, let me think about this...
oh yes, the same rockies that came down from their mountain and swept the red-hot phillies 3-0 in the NLDS in 2008.
and then won the ALCS and the pennant for good measure.
yes, i think i'd lock up some of those players too.
