    But in this case, there is no result of the investigation that would make it less desirable to trade Betts.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Personally I think they are readily apparent and already discussed in infinite detail.
  3. Bellhorn04
    What a nonsensical question.
  4. Bellhorn04
    But you've been of the opinion that if they trade him it's unlikely he'll be back, right?
  5. Bellhorn04
    Sadly, I think I'm out now.
  6. Bellhorn04
    Well, anyone who says that is being dumb.
  7. Bellhorn04
    I don't think % wise too many people think it's only 5-6 years.
  8. Bellhorn04
    How long ARE they, you mean. They've only just begun...
  9. Bellhorn04
    We sure as hell don't need that.
  10. Bellhorn04
    Or we could be absolutely screwed by about Year 5 or 6 of the contract, with a monster albatross hanging around our necks. Lots of possibilities.
  11. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, if you take the cold, rational longview, if Mookie wants 400 million, we're better off if he gets it elsewhere - hopefully in the National League though.
  12. Bellhorn04
    So what teams does that leave in?
  13. Bellhorn04
    This is especially true in baseball.
  14. Bellhorn04
    He had a -0.1 fWAR last year. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
  15. Bellhorn04
    You're 19 minutes late.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Yeah, and while you're at it, imagine how much money you could make if you knew the score of the Super Bowl in advance.
  17. Bellhorn04
    I honestly thought the crazy upward spiral would end somewhere. But maybe not.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Absolutely true. But Mookie will be one of the two human beings on the planet getting 400 million to play baseball.
  19. Bellhorn04
    There has to be a pretty good staredown going on.
  20. Bellhorn04
    If he does go elsewhere, I'm guessing it would be a team with a great offensive line.
  21. Bellhorn04
    That's not light at all.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Right now Mookie is golden. But that could change with amazing rapidity.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Having Price can only help though.
  24. Bellhorn04
    I know what you're saying, but 400 million will give anyone pause. The biggest contract we've ever given out is Price's 217 million, and now we're trying to dump it. And Mookie wants almost double 217 million.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Your point has validity. I'm just assuming that Bloom was aware of all this too, and that he had his reasons for not doing the non-tender. Maybe it was because he was fairly sure he would be trading Betts, and he didn't want to also have to deal with the possibility of having to replace JBJ if another team signed him, so he wasn't concerned about a few extra mill.
