    Which was obviously what I meant. If you keep replying you're just proving my point.
  2. Bellhorn04
    These things are always very clear looking back. I still think 2013 was a miracle. I certainly agree we're not winning 97 this year.
  3. Bellhorn04
    Not ideal though. I'm hoping for a healthy Story until such time as he's not...
  4. Bellhorn04
    Well, he gets it if he lives that long. Deferring money for that long is no trifling matter, if you really care about money and what you can do with it.
  5. Bellhorn04
    I realize. The AAV is $31.7* million. There are 3 years. $31.7 million * 3 = $95 million. What would you call the $95 million number? *Rounded.
  6. Bellhorn04
    So was 2013. So was the Rangers winning it in 2023. Maybe the Sox will actually add something at the deadline this time.
  7. Bellhorn04
    I spelled out "total AAV of the contract", which obviously refers to the 3 years. I believe you knew that, and you're just being irritating for the sake of it, again.
  8. Bellhorn04
    I will vouch for the fact that your post was very confusing. We had a lot of discussion about what kind of offer it would take to sign Crochet to an extension. If they show him the right numbers why wouldn't he take it? And the injury risk is a known part of the equation.
  9. Bellhorn04
    Very true.
  10. Bellhorn04
    If the '25 team has a lot of things go right they could make a run IMHO. A postseason rotation of Crochet, Buehler, Houck and Bello or Giolito or Fitts or Crawford would be pretty decent. But that's a lot going right.

    As somebody once said, you can lose the World Series in April.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, I thought he had it backwards. Trying to keep Mister Magoo on track here is hard work.
  13. Bellhorn04
    So you're saying it's the Sox who don't want to extend them?
  14. Bellhorn04
    You clowns know what I meant. The total of the 3 years AAV's is 95 million. Hopefully that clears it up. 😜
  15. Bellhorn04
    Yep, it was sheer financial brilliance on Alex's part to take this deal from the Sox. He would have been nuts to take that 171.5 mill from the Tigers. 🙃
  16. Bellhorn04
    It is kind of hilarious that his final payment is in 2046.

    From Forbes: https://www.forbes.com/sites/danfreedman/2025/03/03/the-red-sox-and-alex-bregman-pulled-off-the-rare-win-win-contract/ Bregman bit even with massive deferrals in the deal. According to multiple sources, Bregman is entitled to a $5 million signing bonus that is not due to be paid until 2028. He gets $15 million this year, and $20 million in each of 2026 and 2027 (assuming he does not opt-out). The other $60 million (again, assuming he plays all three seasons) is deferred to dates ranging from 2035 to 2046.

    Rockem Sockem Robots are back in stock, folks! 🙃
  19. Bellhorn04
    harmony reported a little while ago that BTV had his contract with a small surplus value. But right now with his shoulder issues, it's surely under water.
  20. Bellhorn04
    I can understand notin ignoring the deferrals because numbers aren't really his thing. I assume you're just doing it to mess with me. 😛
  21. Bellhorn04
    The total AAV of Bregman's Red Sox contract is 95 million. Your numbers are wrong.
  22. Bellhorn04
    How much does this matter? If hitters wanted to jack their numbers they'd all want to play for the Rockies.
  23. Bellhorn04
    So why didn't he take it last time? You don't find 51.5 million + the deferral gap a huge difference? And of course he'll be a year older at an age where one year is huge. To me there's kind of a logic disconnect here.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Well, we're making way too early judgments on all of this, needless to say, because that's what we do and it's fun, but if Campbell and Grissom continue to struggle and Mayer continues to shine, I think the scenario I mentioned has to come into play.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Which he hasn't done since 2019. Fenway might boost it some, hopefully, but if it's a park factor increase only that doesn't add much value. As you can see, I'm digging in on this one. The guy turned down $171.5 million! And in spite of what notin said, Detroit seems like an OK place to play now.
