They could have but they wanted him to take a bunch of tests before they signed him but he said no way. What a mistake that was.

Thome wasnt a free agent. He was signed and has an enormous contract. He was traded to the white sox for aaron rowand and the phillies are paying half of his salary for the next 2 seasons.

Thome did go to the NL. He signed with the Phillies and was traded to the WhiteSox this off-season.

I'm glad they didn't.
I wish he had gone to the NL.
