I don't think I have to describe his reputation for salary demands. It was not till March of this year that Lohse and/or Boras realized time is running out (spring training) and have to accept much lower offers. My question is when news circulated in March that Lohse/Boras were viewing offers of $4-5 million, why Gillick didn't come back with another offer of that range?

That was Lohse's mistake or maybe his agent's for missreading his market value. He would take that deal ina heartbeat now. I think the Phils offense should punish him today. Show him what a contender looks like.GO PHILS!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Phils offered the money and he turned it down. That was Lohse’s mistake or maybe his agent’s for missreading his market value.
