  1. Yeah, I don't really have a whole lot of sympathy either, but serious labor unrest isn't good for anybody, especially us fans.
  2. You mean next time, which is a few years away. The union seems to have gotten snookered a bit this time around.
  3. Very nice! I may have to add something to this myself.
  4. It would have been nice if he explained the last part, as in what other team might sign Martinez.
  5. If Hosmer has 7 year offers and is holding out for 8 he and Boras are being foolish.
  6. So that would mean the entire justification or lack of justification of your team-building approach depends on luck.
  7. Wouldn't it be amusing if something big happens tomorrow on Groundhog Day?
  8. But the trades of Espinoza and Kopech had a lot to do with us making the playoffs last year.
  9. According to Keith Law, as per post #27 on this thread: "(The Red Sox) 2017 draft class was one of the best given where they picked, with three potential first-round talents coming in their first five picks."
  10. All this is quite reasonable. But the change seems to be a rather abrupt one, and if I'm one of the players I might be a little suspicious about it all. If the players as a collective get really unhappy with the situation there's going to be trouble, and everyone will lose, like we did in 1994. We'll have lots of time to debate who's right and who's wrong when another season gets cancelled.
  11. This offseason has gone from merely boring to agonizing. It's not just about when's JDM gonna sign anymore - it's about WTF is going on in general - I smell huge labor trouble, and I might be starting to get on the side of the players in this thing.
  12. Lavarnway just got signed by the Pirates to a minor league deal LOL
  13. Middlebrooks signed a minor-league deal with the Phillies for this year.
  14. Mookie won his arbitration case and gets $10.5 million this year.
  15. If he was willing to sign a minor league deal and if he demonstrated he was healthy, it's pretty much the same use and upside as all the other dumpster dives. But you already know all that.
  16. It might be bad news, but it's not necessarily bad news, let's put it that way.
  17. So what though...we all know it's normal for a team to use 7-10 starters in a season.
  18. Now that's looking at the dark side...sometimes we won't tolerate someone else's optimism LOL
  19. He might as well have spent the last month on a beach somewhere in the tropics.
  20. There's no freaking way DD is done.
  21. Oh I know. You have to forgive me, I'm so bored I'll argue about anything right now.
  22. Oh sure, equating a pitcher's numbers to an agent's numbers is perfectly logical.
  23. It's starting to shape up as a test for the whole baseball economic system. I'm starting to get a bad feeling about the 2018 season. The rumblings have begun.
  24. Boras is used to feeding frenzy offseasons. This offseason might be the true test of his skills.
