And the Yankees will be right at that number between Cole ($36M), Stanton ($32M) and Judge.

JV to mets

Trea Turner to Philly for 11 yrs 300 mil

phillies have some DEEP pockets 

 

[TonyTexas 10508]

An extension for the man who admitted he let the league close the gap. I guess now he now he will let the league pass them as a culmination to his career. 

 

[Dutchrudder 11135]

I think the Yankees should go against the flow and replace Cashman with George Costanza. He could do great things for that club and he already hates Houston.

[Planet Houston 4930]

Please please please let Correa sign with the Dodgers. Pleeeeeeeease. 

[Dutchrudder 11135]

Verlander got 86m for 2 years with a third year option from the Mets. Can't blame him for taking that. Will miss him and Kate on the Astros, but I don't hate him for leaving. Dude deserves to get that 100m for probably 1 years worth of work.

Holy fuck that’s a big number. Have to think that’s for 9 years at $40M per

 

[kevwun 15764]

Yankees better offer 400 million to be sure.

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

2/$33M with an opt-out for Josh Bell to Cle.

Quote

• Gary Sánchez’s agent, Francisco Marquez, has made a presentation to teams pointing out that the catcher’s exit velocities last season compared well to those of Contreras and Vázquez, and that his expected slugging percentage and weighted on-base average were significantly higher than his actual numbers.

“The most important aspect of the 2022 season was that at the end of the season Gary was able to finally and completely shake off the emotional baggage he had acquired during his previous two seasons with the Yankees,” Marquez said. “Whoever gets Gary this offseason will benefit from the rebirth of the Kraken.”

 

[kevwun 15764]

I bet his agent didn't try to explain why he sucks at catching the ball.

[Helobious 9450]

If anyone got emotional damage it was me from watching him trying to play the catcher position. I defended him forever but even I couldn’t take it anymore.

[TonyTexas 10508]

The Rangers are going to need 10 pitchers to account for the number of starter innings required. 

 

[kevwun 15764]

You can accurately recreate Gary Sanchez catching by using a turkey on your hand instead of a mitt.

Heyman has deleted the tweet, said he jumped the gun and Giants haven't heard the final word from Arson.

[TonyTexas 10508]

Heyman ain’t no Woj …….But probably accurate

Heyman doing his best to collude with the Yankees.  

Leak the shit out so the Yankees go full tilt and offer 400 mil and get it done 

[TornACL 7698]

As a nearly lifelong Giants fan, this all ends with the Giants signing Brandon Nimmo.

[tx 3 putt 76873]

Judge about to get paid !

[Chuckie Finster 22694]

Wild thread.

TL;DR: MLB juiced the baseballs for the Yankees (specifically during the Judge home run chase)

Depending on the number that’s probably a win. I think I’d rather owe Nimmo 5/120 than judge 9/360. 5/120 might be light for Nimmo but that seemed to be about where the consensus estimate had him before the start of the offseason. 

[tx 3 putt 76873]

If you’re the Giants, Correa or judge ?

To paraphrase Bill James, Gary Sanchez is to catching what Thurman Munson was to aviation.
