Report: A's may sign Big Hurt

Posted: Thursday April 24, 2008 07:24AM ET

If the A's are considering bringing Frank Thomas back into the fold, manager Bob Geren isn't saying. Thomas, released by the Blue Jays on Sunday, played with Oakland in 2006. The team reportedly is considering bringing back the 39-year-old as a designated hitter.

If they sign "The Big Hurt," then they would be out of the "Barry Bonds Sweepstakes." Frank Thomas had success in Oakland, and will not be nearly the headache that Bonds would be.

Actually, any team that signs him only owes him the league minimum. Who would be stupid enough to give this guy 10 million?

A Twins fan and a Nordique fan that can't let go are definitely the midget tag team wresting champions.

Twins fan....here's a thought...being emotional about this wont help. In the end, an emotional midget, is stil just a midget.

Don't go making too much money...you might find yourself with a pocketful of cash and a team no one cares about to cheer for.
