The Pirates signed Jack Wilson to a 3 year/20 million deal yesterday, making sure he'll be here until 2009 with a club option for 2010.
I have to say, I love his quote on the whole situation:
"I was thinking to myself, 'Oh, wow, what if I don't stink again this
year? What if I do well? I'm going to go into my last year. How is this
team going to afford me based on the market that's out there?' The more
I thought about it, the more I realized all I wanted to do was stay."
What a class guy. I'm damn happy he'll be in Pittsburgh for years to come. He's going to get that gold glove too.
