Heard this morning that McCarty is to report Wednesday but that Braley was still on the fence.

if I was either of those guys?????

I bolt w/o hesitating.......I see no upside by staying...

Only reason to stay is if you feel you have something left to prove or that you want to play in Omaha. It's not like either of them are making a beeline to the majors. They'll hang in the minors a few years and maybe get a shot if they improve. They'll do the same thing whether they stay or not. Can't fault them for taking the money, but I hope they stay. There's a lot of people who left early in '08 who wish they'd have stayed.

We won a record 50 games this year, hosted a regional and couldn't even win our own regional against an in state rival that was absolutely depleted of pitching due to injuries. If we can't even get to a Super Regional with what we did this year, I don't see how we'd get to one next year even if they did stay. I'd be outta here.
