With this much time elapsing its more likely that he & his family are going to accept this deal. The organization basically said "Hey Phil we don't want you here & we told you this when you were going in exchange for Griffey a while back and our feelings towards you haven't changed." The Pads have already brought in a minor leaguer to play his position & saying we rather have this kid as our 1st baseman for our playoff run than you. I think its too much of a pride thing for Nevin not to accept.
