Who here thinks Seager was worth almost double Semien and more than double Story & Baez? (Of course, not per year, but still...)
-
Better offensively, no doubt, but better than $140M/6 might not be $200M.

Why do you assume paying another player what you offer Bogey will be half as good? Now, they may take Bogey's money and pay 2 guy's half his money, each, and together, they may not amount to crap, but every signing or extension is a gamble to differing extents, and we all will never agree on what each player is precisely worth. I'd have offered Bogey more than Story, but only if we still thought we could be in the ballpark to sign Devers, next year (and we should have been able to do that.) However, now that we have Story, I would not offer him $25M x 8, $26M x76 or $27M x 6. It's close, but I think Story was likely told, he'd be the SS in 2023. (Just my opinion.) I thought Betts was the face of the franchise, and in my biggest moment of weakness I suggested something like $400M/14 to keep him here, so I don't think I'm some heartless, will-nilly let 'em walk kinda fan. Now, most here know my bias towards having a great defensive SS and not thinking Bogey is one, so personally, Devers is the current face of the franchise, and who couldn't love that cheery baby face?
-
Sounds fair, and in my mind, that is saying "bye, bye." (He won't agree to that, now.)
-
Only Seager got more than $175M, this winter. (Other got more, last season.) $325M/10 Seager (I'm not sure anyone but the Rangers GM thought he was worth that) $175M/7 Semien $140M/6 Story $140M/6 Baez $105M/3 Correa (opt outs)

I would guess that most BorA$$ clients do better than they would have with the majority of other agents. The guy does his homework. I'm not sure he turns off owners enough to not bargain for someone they want, because he's the agent.
-
Sorry. I noticed this afterwards. My bad.
-
Can one big blow out win be enough to light a fire under this offense?
-
I answered the question on why a player might sign BorA$$ as their agent.
-
I don't think Bogey would take a 3 year deal, even at $30M each, but if they offered that, at least they could sat they made a market level offer. He'd probably rather take $25M x 5 than $30M x 3. I think he gets $25M+ x 6+. Maybe 25 x 8 or $26M x 7 or $27M x 6?. I'm curious how many here would offer that. I would have offer something like what Story got, maybe a little more, but now that we have Story, I would not.

Good to see a smokin' hot batter there, instead.
-
That's a massive K rate!

Especially feral cats.

I used to have thread by the same name on the other site as a way to try and keep the wild posts on other threads. It did NOT work there, either.
-
Well. you are a Yankee fan, so I was saying it like expected you to write about 2023, as a way of saying our 2022 was over, like expect you hope it is. It wasn't meant to be any sort of demand that you not start the next part.
-
I'm far from upset. Why assume I'm upset just for saying start Part 1 of 2023? You guys read too much into many posts.
-
I guess having 6 parts is fine.
-
No. Why did I act like there was?
-
That he wants a good agent? Is this a trick question?
-
Why not just start the Realistic View at 2023 Part I?
-
I thought the Yanks "fractured" when Reggie Jackson and Billy Martin went at it in the dugout during a nationwide broadcast. Fractures heal very quickly, at times.

Are you replying to me, because you know I'm a Bucks fan? -
Fair enough. My whole point on the 14 year deal was that I'd give him what he's worth over 10-11 years but make it 14 to bring down the AVV and have the off-chance he might still be a plus years 12-14. He was pretty young, when I suggested 14 years. The $400M number was at my peak of desperation to keep Betts here. It wasn't the only numbers I threw out there back then. Fair game to bring up, though.
-
That's why most board member would be terrible GMs.
-
He's doing very well. He'll likely be called up to AAA, this season. 15 Ks 0 BBs Nothing is wrong.
