Is Paul Konerko a free agent after this year? I've seen it stated a couple of places lately. I thought he signed a 3 yr deal after the 2002 season.

He is under contract next year too.

I know his contract sucks, but he has been earning it this year, for sure.

He could hit .300 with 30 bombs and 100 rbi's this year and he'd still be overpaid.

Still like him though.

He plays a good 1st base as well.

His range leaves something to be desired.
