    Good. Everyone is happy now.
  2. Kimmi
    He is set for life, which is precisely the reason that he should be willing to give the team somewhat of a discount. He should have accepted this deal two years ago.
  3. Kimmi
    In Bloom, I trust.
  4. Kimmi
    Fair. They have some other terrible contracts on their roster as well. That said, Trout is under contract until 2030. That's scary, and he's the best player in baseball.
  5. Kimmi
    Because they really, really want Betts.
  6. Kimmi
    There is no way that the Yankees weren't stealing signs, and CC knows this. This is one of those cases where the other players should just keep their mouths shut.
  7. Kimmi
    It would make sense. Might even be a 3-4 year deal.
  8. Kimmi
    I was agreeing with you. I am rolling my eyes at Mookie saying that he needs to go to free agency because he has the player's union to think about.
  9. Kimmi
    We'll take Verdugo, Maeda, and a lesser ranked prospect.
  10. Kimmi
    I am glad they didn't counter. Maybe the Sox heard Mookie's counter and saw the writing on the wall. No need to counter.
  11. Kimmi
    Personally, I wouldn't do 10/300, but that's just me.
  12. Kimmi
    I completely agree about the farm system. Bloom was brought in mostly to rebuild the farm, but I think, on the whole, he has a balanced approach. He will be balancing the short term goals with the long term goals.
  13. Kimmi
    I would try to get the Dodgers to throw in a prospect as well.
  14. Kimmi
    Of course it does. Trout's contract greatly restricts the Angels in other areas.
  15. Kimmi
    Nope.
  16. Kimmi
    Or more.

    If the deal fell through, it would be bad for both teams. Don't underestimate the Dodgers' need to get this done though. It's not only about getting Mookie, but they had other moving parts too, for which the deal falling through would not sit well.
  18. Kimmi
    Right, sensible people just don't like good players.
  19. Kimmi
    I completely agree with your first paragraph. Well said. However, the Red Sox didn't trade Mookie "just like that". This is something that has been considered and reconsidered for several years now. The trade is not something the Sox would do lightly, despite all the media speculation to the contrary.
  20. Kimmi
    Of course it's reasonable.
  21. Kimmi
    ^^^
  22. Kimmi
    Ha.
  23. Kimmi
    Oh, it would be terrible if he backs out now, not only because of public perception, but what are Mookie and Price going to feel like being back with the Red Sox? I don't see this deal not being completed. The Dodgers are in a similar situation. They need this to get done.
  24. Kimmi
    12 years $420 mil is not reasonable for Mookie. He is not Mike Trout, and that isn't even reasonable for Trout.
  25. Kimmi
    Right, because he has the player's union to think about.
