I think your cynicism is a little over the top. A lot of players do perform well after they get paid. Even the much maligned Manny Ramirez. He played as well after signing with us as he did before signing with us. A lot of these guys love playing the game and playing it well. It's why they got into it in the first place.

I honestly don't remember all the details. How did ratting on Clemens save Pettitte's skin?
-
Wait till next year!
-
Based on what he got from the Jays, I'm sure we weren't.
-
Yes, I'm sure it's a gradual process.
-
Mark McGwire's certainly did.
-
The whole world that follows baseball, I mean. Don't be so literal. Certainly the vast majority of people who read SoxProspects would know, I expect.
-
Maybe they figure that's not a necessary part of what they provide, or that the whole world knows about the suspension anyway.

What would a Betts extension be?

The Dodgers reportedly offered Harper 3 years @ 45 per, or 4 years @ 42 per. -
Four? Where would Devers be?
-
Yep, it's been torture. The Machado-Harper show was like a 20-inning game. By the end you don't even care about the outcome, you just want it to be over. Although truthfully I'm glad the Yanks didn't get either one. That might have been insufferable.
-
I think Harper will be a productive hitter for 5 more years at least. But he will probably be a DH eventually. The Phillies and the other NL teams bidding on him must be confident that the NL will adopt the DH.
-
Yeah, that's the way I feel too. Off them now and never touch them again, that is.
-
I'm hoping that dustcover said that under the assumption that Pedey would be PUP.
-
They have a good chance at going back-to-back, too.
-
This deal is not really any bigger than Machado's, though. It's crazy money, of course. But the craziest thing is that the teams can actually pay contracts like these.
-
MLBTR predicted he would get 14 years and 420 million. So this is actually pretty reasonable.
-
Machado's deal is actually a little better, with a higher AAV and an opt-out. Wasn't expecting that. Edit: now they say there will be opt-outs in Harper's deal.
-
Good for the Phillies. The stories that he didn't want to play there were obviously wrong. It only took $330 million to make him love the place.
-
Were the Yankees 2018 Bullpen Champs?
-
It's no longer a secret.
-
For me it's about having some faith in DD and the organization that they know what they're doing. I'm also of the belief that DD hasn't closed the door on making an acquisition if that looks to be necessary.
