Talk:Surgery Should End Bagwell's Career/@comment-101836-20060326145112

By the way, Patrick, Bagwell isn&quot;t a jerk for what he&quot;s doing. The Astros are trying to screw him. He&quot;s been overpaid because he allowed the organization to backload his contract so that they could afford to get other players. He took paycuts for years to make room for others. Now he&quot;s trying to get the money he rightfully earned from 1999 to 2003. It&quot;s not his fault the Astros are trying to get out of his backloaded contract. They shouldn&quot;t have done that if they didn&quot;t have intentions of paying it.
