Quote of the Day: Jim Callis on Joe Mauer

Found March 18, 2010 on Jorge Says No:
Mlb_may_01_0f32
Via ESPN.com chat:
Jason (St. Louis)

It sure seems more and more likely Mauer hits FA. If the Red Sox and Yanks get in to a bidding war on him, what potentially do you think he could end up signing for? Is 8 years 225 mil outside the realm of possibility?


Jim Callis

Not outside the realm of possibility if he becomes a free agent, but I still think he resigns with the Twins.


Now I'll pose the question: would you commit $200+ million to a catcher?

I wouldn't. I don't care how good he is or if his name is Joe Mauer, the risk is simply too high at that price.
