Hill's last contract was 3/48. You have a solid point there. If Hill could get that much Price should be worth about 3/60.
-
Simulator is overruled.
-
MLBTR suggests the Sox would get stuck paying 35-40% of his salary.
-
I see no need to trade Mookie. Trade Price & JBJ.
-
Only if one thinks it should all be done in one transaction.
-
John Henry obviously thinks the tax will continue to exist in the next CBA, and I'd say he's in a pretty good position to know about that.
-
The only thing the Sox have to include in a trade for Price is money.
-
That's assuming paying Price's full salary, which no one has suggested.
-
It's the Jays. Even if David pitched 6 good innings, we'd still have a shot against the Jays pen. We have much bigger things to be concerned about.
-
The MLBTR piece puts an optimistic spin on a trade for Price. It says there about 7 teams interested in Ryu and suggests that the Sox will have multiple potential partners for Price, and that the Sox could expect teams to be willing to pay $20 mill * 3 of his contract.
-
I just don't know why you're going apeshit about a possible trade of Price to the Jays. It's not like trading with the Yanks or the Rays.
-
What are you blathering about?
-
He was talking about Teheran & Keuchel methinks.
-
The lux tax is not going to disappear altogether, no chance. Players realize that having a lux tax is much better than having a hard cap. Maybe the rates are reduced a bit and the thresholds pushed up a bit.
-
At this point I feel like anything could happen. Maybe if they're underwhelmed by the offers they're getting they scrap the reset for this year.
-
I expect Manfred's threat was simply a negotiating tactic.
-
But it will get resolved.
-
Bum and Miley are signed.
-
It's kind of like the Mafia. They have always been very resourceful and adaptive in devising ways to separate people from their money.
-
If the umps are cooperating, it's pretty much a done deal now.
-
The question is how baseball revenues continue to rise when attendance and viewership are apparently dropping. That's why I raised the 'partnerships' thing as a possible explanation.
-
Where is all the new dough flowing from? Probably from the new 'partnerships' like Nike and DraftKings, isn't it?
-
Yes, a big miss on my part.
-
As far as obvious concrete examples go, you can't do any better than the '16 Cubs and the '17 Astros. Both teams somewhat notoriously tanked for a few years, scoring high draft picks that were integral to building championship teams.
-
It's one of those things that's just obvious. When we talk about the farm, what we're really talking about is being successful at scouting, drafting and developing players.
