You're right. I saw $6.5 million for him for 2012, but that's a club option year. Not sure what the buyout is.
This is not some silly theory that's unsupported and deserves being mocked by photos of Xena. ![[Image: ITgoyeg.png]](http://i.imgur.com/ITgoyeg.png)

How the hell does Samardzija have a no trade clause?

I am looking forward to seeing Diamond pitch. Shark is worthless, so to me anyway, it is better that he stays down in the minors. If he continues to pitch well, maybe some team will want him in the offseason, provided that he waives his NTC and we agree to pay a 90% of his salary.

If Thomas Diamond turns out to be Jewish, then I'll be serving cake in the lobby after his start.

The Samardzija contract is the biggest Hendry face-palm of them all.

To be fair, I don't doubt for a second that Hendry was basically told to give out NTCs like candy by the Trib since they wouldn't show up on a balance sheet any differently than a normal contract and would only burden the new owner.

The Samardzija signing was bad...no doubt.
That said...I don't recall a lot of bitching about it at the time.
ANNNNNNNND...
I refuse to pick away at Hendry...judge his body of work.
