    No. I want him only DH'ing with maybe a handful of games in the OF at NL parks.
  2. moonslav59
    7 of the 11 deals over $25M/yr x 7 are able to be judged. 5 Good: Kershaw, Scherzer, ARod1, Verlander, ARod2 2 Bad: Miggy & Price Of the 12 deals between $20-25M that can be judged, now, I find... 3 Good 3 S-So 6 Bad I'd say the idea that the vast majority of mega and mega long deals go bad is unfounded.
  3. moonslav59
    Yes, I meant to put price in red. (Fixed it.) One could argue Price is "pending."
  4. moonslav59
    The move certainly increases the odds. (I know you aren't going anywhere, but yes, if he gets hurt- it's all your fault!)
  5. moonslav59
    I edited out the shorter term contracts- just 7+ year contracts listed. Red= Bad Blue= Pending or good Black= so-so
  6. moonslav59
    When JD gets hurt playing 1B, will you be around to defend the move?
  7. moonslav59
    Or both, plus I'm terrified, but I know that doesn't count for jack.
  8. moonslav59
    My guess is Cora may have to serve a suspension. I'm thinking, how can the Astros not have known an ex-player would spill the beans at some point? If I was an ex-Astro and I was facing them in a game, I'd tell my team, anyway.
  9. moonslav59
    So, basically, the whole player budget up to the luxury tax is paid before they even to the gate receipts and TV revenue.
  10. moonslav59
    He'll get hurt in ST'ing just trying to squat for a low throw. (I'm not joking, here.)
  11. moonslav59
    You'll have to ask Gulianni.
  12. moonslav59
    You think we could get Margot and 2 prospects (no Quantrill) for Betts?
  13. moonslav59
    This means we should trade JD, assuming the impossible happens and Pedey DHs 80+ games. JD should not play defense- anywhere but in NL parks.
  14. moonslav59
    It's all a hoax and a witch hunt! (Repeat 17, 000 times.)
  15. moonslav59
    Who gets the money if sold at Fenway Park?
  16. moonslav59
    I think we were talking about what return in trade we might get for Betts, not him shooting for the moon on a contract.
  17. moonslav59
    Reposted for your enjoyment. Date listed was the last year of the deal.
  18. moonslav59
    I already posted a list of all the top contracts of all time. (Go to the Realistic thread. I just reposted it.) It's not even close to 10:1, but the judging criteria is subjective. I'd say it's more like 3:2 or 5:3, but if you narrow it down to 8+ year deals with players 27 or 28, my guess is the numbers are close to 1:1.
  19. moonslav59
    I doubt we trade him for a 5th starter and 4th OF'er. It will more likely be for 1-2 near ML-ready prospects. Then, with the money saved, we let Bloom do his magic with cheap FA signings to fill numerous voids in our 25 man roster. CF (assuming no JBJ) C (assuming no Leon) 1B SP RP RP SP depth
  20. moonslav59
    There was already a drop off in viewership the last 2 years. Losing Betts will not add anyone. Will people who wanted to buy a Betts jersey, still buy one of Devers or Bogey? Probably, many will. IMO, Betts will earn the $330M/30 year deal he may get.... and then some.
  21. moonslav59
    So, maybe a 1 for 1 deal, assuming ATL wants to shoot for a 1 year window (doubtful).
  22. moonslav59
    If, by some miracle, he comes back and plays a lot, I think his bat may be okay. I'm worried more about his range and ability to turn the DP.
  23. moonslav59
    There have been some very great returns, in the past. Maybe not "the moon," but...
  24. moonslav59
    So, a comp pick for Betts.
  25. moonslav59
