Yeah, that doesn't bode well for us in our extending of Mookie, or possibly Sale. At least Machado didn't join the Yanks.
-
Yup, but again, if you have to play 11 games without a day off, the beginning of the season is the absolute best time.
-
I love that start. Better for the players to remain in the warmer climbs and get a big road trip out of the way at the least taxing time of the season. Perfect.
-
Yeah, you can totally understand why.
-
I'd say there is a pretty clear difference between being found guilty of using, twice. And people questioning others. That said, I don't doubt most of Baseball and professional sports are juicing so I see the point.
-
Can't stand this move. He's cheated continuously. Let him rot.
-
Unless those taxes go to making a safety net so people don't lose homes in hard times and it funded free healthcare and schooling. That would be too sensible, though.
-
The Yankees have built quite the pen.
-
I'd also love to know what his career numbers are at Fenway Park. He always seems to kill it there.
-
I think if we put Manny on this team in place of Bogey we win 109 games this year.
-
It wouldn't surprise me. I know the market is weirdly depressed right now, but that's crazy low.
-
Tough to answer, but I imagine restocking the farm a little and bringing back a good reliever would certainly not be out of the question. Maybe. I just can't believe a guy of his talent will go that cheap and for only 7 years. I completely understand that people are worried about his attitude on times and let's be honest he seems a right prick, but his team mates always seem to like him and even if you did get fed up of his ways, with that contract, you could probably easily move him after a few years if he continues to be such a force offensively and defensively. I'd far prefer Manny for $25m over Bogey for what? $20m? Although Bogey would maybe get lesser years.
-
If Machado is available at 7 years for $25 a year, I'd grab him and trade Bogaerts in a heartbeat. Although I'm positive the price for Machado is going to get much higher.
-
That was my very first thought.
-
We did get something out of that trade. He helped us win a WS.
-
Trade him I say. And Sale. I'm fed up their greatness anyway. It would have merit as a discussion the season before his final year if he's showing zero sign of staying. For what it's worth, I don't think he re-signs with us. I'm not sure why; it's just a nagging feeling.
-
Absolutely this. He was superb for us for almost all of the contract and helped us to 3 Division titles and then had just enough to help us to the WS. IT worked out very well for us and now is the perfect time to walk away and say thank you.
-
That does sound quite painful to be fair.
-
Spot on. We only see the tax limitations. The owners are more worried about bigger financial lines. If they are profitable and wining, they don't care if we go over the tax threshold.
-
Excellent re-singing. Perfect it's for one year and also at a reasonable cost. Great move.
-
£11m per year for Harvey? That seems high. Bringing back Pom for £6m for one year could work. See which of the last two years is the real him.

The Alex Cora Managerial Decision Thread
Hitch replied to StephenCurry30's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
The best thing about that, is that its aimed at the fans and parts of the media that had a collective breakdown after Game 2. It should be posted every other page in game threads. -
Lots of flooding though...from all the tears.
-
Yeah but we'd have an awesome farm.
-
He's definitely not going anywhere, but I would LOVE it if he opted out. We got the best out of his contract and then we wouldn't have to pay for the declining years. But like I say, he's not going anywhere.
