But as far as a big contract with one of the top free agents, like what they did years ago with Ivan Rodriguez and Magglio Ordonez, I'd be shocked. They're certainly not in the business of multiyear contracts at this point after laboring to free up payroll over the past several months. Anything they do the rest of this offseason IÃÂ ...
