    Nick Madrigal is penciled in as the second baseman on my defending champion fantasy team. MLB offseason potential scenarios WWW.MLB.COM Will one free-agent signing trigger a half-dozen more? This loaded-at-the-top market may lend itself to that. For instance, if Stephen Strasburg re-signs with the Nationals, do the Phillies, Yankees and Angels suddenly ramp up their efforts to sign Gerrit Cole or Zack Wheeler? Or let’s say the Rangers sign Anthony

    The Red Sox aren't exactly negotiating from a position of strength this offseason. The Sox may be pounding sand. Or not.

    The website should explain its updates since the end of the season.

    Christian Vazquez would even it out.

    The trade simulator suggests that is a slight overpay for the Red Sox: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trade-simulator/ ... although the website may not take into consideration the luxury tax benefits for the Red Sox.

    According to one website, that trade gives the Red Sox a surplus value of $16.2 million and the Astros a net negative value of $6.5 million: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trade-simulator/ As the simulator reads: Not accepted.

    Would anyone trade Chris Sale for one-time Gold Glove second baseman Dee Gordon, saving the Red Sox $19 million for luxury tax purposes next year and nearly $30 million annually thereafter? One website lists Sale with a negative net value of $11 million and Gordon with a negative net value of $11.4 million: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trade-simulator/ Sale and his injury concerns might be too risky for the Mariners despite their reported payroll flexibility.

    Those are reasons why other teams would not want David Price and his contract. Would you package Price, Mookie Betts and $10 million in a trade to another club for a player with no surplus value? That's what one website suggests it would take: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trade-simulator/

    Despite posting only 0.8 fWAR, valued at $7.9 million, this year, Robinson Cano has posted 21.4 fWAR, valued at $169.8 million, six years into his 10-year, $240 million contract. The Cano contract appears better than the contract for David Price, who has posted 10.6 fWAR valued at $85 million in the first four years of his seven-year, $217 million contract.

    Should Mookie Betts be penalized contractually for the .210/.300/.323/.623 line he posted over 14 games in the same postseason?

    Joe Mauer posted fWAR valued at $96.7 million in the first four years of his eight-year, $178 million contract while David Price has posted fWAR valued at $85 million in the first four years of his seven-year, $217 million contract.

    According to one website, the Red Sox package of Mookie Betts ($50 million) and Jay Groome ($4.3 million) would have a surplus value of $54.3 million: https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trade-simulator/ The proposed Yankee package of Miguel Andujar ($27.2 million), Clint Frazier ($19 million), Luis Gil ($8.7 million) and Mike King ($2.4 million) would have a surplus value of $57.3 million.
