frankly it looks to me like the outline of the kind of offer the M's might have to make if they are all in on Fielder. I only mentioned it as an example of how this time, if the M's whiff on Fielder after making an offer like that, or anything near that, I for one will not in this instance engage in my favorite sport of bashing the Mariners organization for their beancounting ways. They will truly have gone the extra mile to make it happen. It wouldn't be their fault, given that they don't hold Boras' pen.
It is a rumor of a rumor that supposedly has its source from inside the Mariners' organization, but I find it hard to believe that during such a high stakes poker game as the M's are playing that anyone would risk their career with such a leak. And if by some chance Jack were to see a purpose in leaking out just how serious the M's offer has been right before he tells Boras to fish or cut bait, you'd think he'd find a more credible channel for the leak.
