  1. This is it...6 years, $156 million with a $13 billion bonus if he lives to 131. Present value of the bonus is $100 million. Everyone is happy.
  2. So Bregman is the bad guy
  3. The platoon thing doesn't work perfectly, though. Zaudi went crazy with that with the Giants, but two incomplete players don't Voltron into a good player. I agree Gamel is fine for 1.2.
  4. That was probably pre-Gamel, though
  5. We've got a 5'10 guy who throws 99? Again?!
  6. If true, bang up job by Boras
  7. Blue Jays motto
  8. I thought this was an interesting analysis of the Framchise, including changes in his pitch usage (more changeups) and why he might be throwing his sinker harder: https://blogs.fangraphs.com/framber-valdez-made-a-change/
  9. RIP and condolences to their family. Good job on the headline, Statesman.
  10. Dauer apparently just passed away. RIP, coach
  11. Oh damn, it is on. This is Bregman's fault.
  12. Not a Mavs fan, but the word "generational" is being vastly overused in sports media. Generational is once every 20 years.
  13. I would argue that we've had a guy there who sucks for some time.
  14. You can't go wrong giving a 31 year old a 6 year contract!!!
  15. Good to see Carlos Lee is still doing well.
  16. Altuve's agent is Boras, also. The contrast between him and Bregman is stark. Hope Bregman resigns at a reasonable price, but hope we move on soon enough to get OF help.
  17. Not too late to switch from Daikin to Toto
  18. True story--Luhnow's rejection letter was just "You're a cunt" on Astros letterhead
  19. I hope that some of the posters on clutchfans are logging on from prison because they should not be allowed to participate in society.
  20. I'd like to see an analysis of Keith Law as a prospect ranker on a 20-80 scale
  21. Free agents the Dodgers signed between 10am and 2pm yesterday
  22. Tyler Ivey and Forrest Whitley on the same MLB roster would be like seeing Elvis riding the Loch Ness monster. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6050949/2025/01/13/astros-tyler-ivey-comeback/
  23. Pujols is the manager. Montero let him experience being an Astros fan in 2005.
  24. Always loved Bill Doran. Hatcher, too. Felt like Pete Harnisch would be a good guy in a fight.
