BJ RYAN RUMORS & GOSSIP

Ryan Madson Should Consider a One-Year Contract

Poor Ryan Madson. When the off-season first opened, it looked like he all set to get a big fat four-year, $40 million contract from the Phillies only to have them pull it off the table right when he thought they had an agreement.
