Not really. Since he opted out he didn't get paid by either team.
-
And you would need some actuarial algorithms to calculate those relative risks. But I do know one indisputable fact - any player's career can end on a single play.
-
It's all just guessing either way.
-
The thing I remember best about Jimy was that at his press conferences, when he was asked for some insights into strategy or whatever for the upcoming game, his answer was always the same: "We'll go play." -
Game is one hour earlier tonight for some reason.
-
Or we may have anyway. 2020 was Tax Year 3 whether we did well in 2019 or not.
-
Maybe they did, or maybe they had no impact at all. Mookie wanted his 12/400 no matter what, and it was a monster risk no matter what.
-
DD overpaid in prospects for Kimbrel, but I maintain that the contract itself was excellent.
-
The cliff was mostly about the timing of our contracts.
-
400 million seems a very fair estimate. The Dodgers signed him for 365, in the midst of a pandemic.
-
Remember when I said how bad the 2015 pitching rotation was, and you said it was actually the bullpen that was atrocious?
-
Eovaldi was second on the team in innings pitched.
-
His doctors are going to be important factors in the call.
-
My opinion, and I'm sticking to it, is that they just didn't want to give Mookie 12 years and 400 million, regardless of any other considerations. Their risk analyzer spit it out.
-
Pillar, or any of the other guys we keep hearing of to replace JBJ for much less money.
-
Agreed. But Mookie was a special situation.
-
Sure, but that's looking backwards. And Bradley contributed to a title. The mystery was why they decided to pay him the $11 million this year.
-
I think it was ownership making the call.
-
And I'd definitely sign up for that.
-
Margot's salary was 2.475 million this year, Pillar's 4.25 million.
-
Thank you.
-
They did try to lock Mookie up at the price they were comfortable with, but it was nothing doing.
-
Most likely neither.
-
Just Larry saying Larry things.
-
Larry, Margot has a career OPS of .693. He had 1 HR and 11 RBI in 47 games this year. But you see him hit a HR in a playoff game and you get all excited about him.
