What problem would that circumvent? As I understand it, exercising the option early would have no effect on the AAV. So you wouldn't accomplish anything by doing this.
-
It seems to say the option does transfer.
-
Where does that info come from UN?
-
Note: mid-point between Yankees rumored offer of 168 and Cano's rumored offer of 252 = 210.
-
Buster Olney reports that Cano has asked the Yankees for 9 * 28 = 252. Plus a vesting option for a 10th year thrown in for good measure LOL
-
This is way over the line man.
-
Man if I did something like that with some of my avid baseball fan friends, a few would be calling me a complete ******* when they found out it was BS.
-
You're quite the merry prankster mark.
-
This is something that's been overlooked a bit - this was a classic contract-motivated season for Ellsbury - he even played hurt some at the end of the year - which was kind of unprecedented.
-
Compare Ortiz's numbers for his age 26-30 years to Cano's for age 26-30. Not close at all.
-
It's career. All we know is that Ortiz had a positive test for something in 2003. Anything else is rumor. There have been rumors about Cano too.
-
I did compare. Ortiz's OPS+ is 139, Cano's is 125.
-
He's an excellent hitter, but he's not an Ortiz.
-
One of the biggest problems with this idea is that it requires outbidding the richest team in baseball for a player who has more value to them than he does to us.
-
OK, now let's move on to a discussion of a blockbuster trade with the Reds for Votto.
-
Peralta is definitely on my spite list for 2014 - I hope he has a s***** year.
-
You don't seriously think there's any chance of this happening though, right?
-
Let's be realistic here. You don't make a colossal investment like that just to 'KO the Yankees'. They're probably not even the biggest threat the next 3 years. And let's not forget that at the end of the day they do have more money than us. The best thing for us may be to let the Yankees have Cano and his $25 million a year cost.
-
Not to mention that as of now their 2014 rotation consists of Sabathia and Nova and they have no closer.
-
He also admitted he had no info on Salty medicals...why not just say 'I'm guessing my ass off like everybody else'.
-
There's a report that the Yankees offer to Cano is 7 years, 168 million, which sounds right. It's also reported that the offer has a deadline. There are no rumblings at all about other teams being interested enough to try to outbid the Yankees.
-
I think Brady and Manning are both in the top 5 QB's alltime, with Montana, Elway and probably Unitas I guess.
-
They're not dealing Lackey. My sig line says how I really feel about most of this.
-
OK, you typed that we didn't need him after 2013. And potential is exactly that, potential.
-
Huh?
