    The current state of the team can be blamed on DD, Henry, and Ben. Ben left the team with very little pitching, that was his main contribution.

    It all comes down to the definition of "afford", of course. Having enough money available to buy something doesn't mean you can afford it.
  3. Bellhorn04
    But you have strongly argued that a 12 years, $365 commitment is simply insane. So why isn't it enough of a reason?
  4. Bellhorn04
    Jeez, the guy's name is not that difficult LOL
  5. Bellhorn04
    But he did want that GM in 2015...

    It's not just the 30 million a year. It's the risk that the player will get injured or decline but still be paid the 30 million for years, which would cripple a small market team.

    All I have really been saying is that the primary reason Mookie was traded is that they didn't want to give him the contract he wanted. To me that's all the reason they needed. Do you strongly disagree with that?
  8. Bellhorn04
    Maybe because Dombrowski had 3 division winners and one team that went 108-54 and won it all, and Bloom has done nothing yet. Not everyone is into the deep analysis of all the whys and wherefores like you and I are...some folks truly focus on results.
  9. Bellhorn04
    They changed the rules for one year and for a pretty good reason IMO. Just be glad the re-set counts.

    It's anyone's guess how Price will do the next 2 years.
  11. Bellhorn04
    I don't really understand how a small market team could afford a $365 million contract.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Mazza's FIP seems to suggest some hope.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Still a threat for sure.
  14. Bellhorn04
    I think it's a little paranoid to be concerned that because we hired Bloom we're going to operate like the Rays now.
  15. Bellhorn04
    AFAIK Price is not paid by anyone for 2020. So if he had stayed, the situation would be the same.
  16. Bellhorn04
    From the sounds of it, the preferred narrative he's referring to is that JDM is only in a temporary slump.
  17. Bellhorn04
    That doesn't reflect the COVID-19 adjustments and the fact he opted out of the season.
  18. Bellhorn04
    It's too early yet to know if he's in a short term slump or long term decline.
  19. Bellhorn04
    I think it's 156 million? 2016 31 2017 31 2018 31 2019 31 2020 0 2021 16 2022 16

    I'm confident Bloom will be able to follow in the footsteps of his old boss Friedman.
  21. Bellhorn04
    No one should be maligning Seager's contract.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Yankees still have an 87.5% chance of making the playoffs.
  23. Bellhorn04
    It happens about 35% of the time.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Because I took the lazy man's route and only looked at B-R.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Devers is a fine young hitter, but he is also a minus defender and minus baserunner. So we're not talking about a Mookie-type talent or price tag by any means,
