  1. We don't forget details like that, us Sox fans.
  2. Don't want to hijack the thread? Hell man, that's what we do best here. IMHO what Springer gets is a moot point, where the Red Sox are concerned. We're in the market for a Pillar or Marisnick this year. Pitching, pitching, pitching is what Bloom will be focused on.
  3. If Springer does get 120 million, that would only be 40% of Harper and Machado, of course, or 180 million less.
  4. MLBTR's rankings: 1. Bauer 4/128 2. Realmuto 5/125 3. Springer 5/125 4. Ozuna 4/72 I'd say Springer makes the cut.
  5. Sure, he might. My guess is that a few of the premier free agents will get multi-year offers that are too much to pass up in these uncertain times. That seems to be what MLBTR is speculating as well.
  6. I'm sure the guys at MLBTR took into consideration the expected down market. Their guess is $125 mill, and your guess is $68 mill. Something to watch.
  7. Pillar has been a good value over his career. FanGraphs has his career dollar value at $103 million. B-R has his career earnings at about $15 million.
  8. The issue isn't so much the draft pick. MLBTR predicts he will get 5 years/125 million, and that looks like it's being discounted a little for the COVID-19 factor. So that's 25 mill a year tacked onto the payroll. Springer is an excellent player that every team would love to have. But I would rather see that kind of money allocated to pitching.
  9. The Pillar of Strength! (OK, maybe I only voted for him so I could use that.)
  10. Bloom took a while before he named Roenicke too. He's a patient man.
  11. Holy s***. I didn't know what you were talking about till I looked it up.
  12. I remember that when the Nats signed Jayson Werth for 7/126, they basically said the only way they could sign any big names then was with a massive overpay.
  13. Cliff Lee, supposedly. And there have been a few others who said they took a little less. But most of the data on the offers is never made publicly available, so how would we know? Sometimes you hear people say 'we outbid ourselves' as in signings like Price and Eovaldi. But we have no actual clue what other offers there were.
  14. You might be the best qualified candidate here, but I think you fall a little short of that list LOL
  15. I have my doubts any posters here can satisfy that list of qualifications!
  16. "For of all sad words of tongue or pen, The saddest are these: It might have been." - John Greenleaf Whittier
  17. Lakins wasn't traded by DD.
  18. A fun exercise might be to figure out what our roster would look like if you reversed every DD trade as if it never happened.
  19. OK, here's your chance: spell out the major part of your complaint.
  20. My bad. From now on that will read 'prospect'.
