  1. Man, we can't get home soon enough.
  2. I'm the total opposite of Uncle Rico. So yeah, please don't call me that.
  3. So we just gave a large extension to a guy that doesn't have his elite fastball anymore? Why?
  4. Sometimes I wish managers in baseball were like football coaches. It seems Baseball managers manager their players with kid gloves. You see let up more often in baseball and I guarantee you Bill Belichick would have a field day with Xander not hustling on that play.
  5. They're going to stay with the call in the field only to uphold a great defensive play. To heck with these guys.
  6. We need to hurry up and get home.
  7. OK I guess it's time to hit the playstation.
  8. Again, you guys are implying that his market value 2 years from now is going to be the same as it is today. If he suffers a career ending injury in July it will impact his future value. I didn't know we had so many nostradamus's on this board.
  9. He doesn't have to do anything. I'm just saying he's an idiot.
  10. Which is over 200 mil. Again, he could suffer a career ending injury tomorrow or just flat out fail at dealing with the pressure of trying to secure the moon and everything else that comes with it. Boras has no problem with waiting, he's already a fat cat. Sign the contract, take the pressure off, secure your family for generations to come and take that money and invest it. You can just as easily invest that money and get to a billion dollars as you could with 400 million. Not hard.
  11. Anybody who thinks waiting 2 years to sign a mega contract when the market is already set is a MORON. No offense.
  12. Yup Scott Boras is a mega millionaire. He has already made his. He has no qualms with Mookie waiting it out. LOL.
  13. Anything can happen. You have hundreds of millions of dollars staring you in the face and nobody is going to get a higher contract than Mike Trout.
  14. Question for everybody on this board. If you were Mookie Betts right now, would you wait to sign an extension? Be honest. Remember the market is set. Harper signed and Trout signed. Be honest with yourselves.
  15. Really? You have hundreds of millions of dollars staring you in the face. From now until he becomes a FA anything can happen. It's a no brainer dude! Anybody who thinks otherwise needs their noggen shaked.
  16. I think Mookie should have taken whatever the RS were offering him. I'm sure Boras is advising him but he should have taken the highest offer from the RS.
  17. I remember buster olney saying benintendi was going to be a perennial batting champion. I don't see it. Good player but I think a lot of people overrated him.
  18. I always believe a tie goes to the player with team success. It's just another opportunity to reward what matters which is WINNING.
  19. C'mon man we're not winning the world series without Betts. We're making this harder than it is.
  20. It's pretty simple to me. Did your team make the playoffs then you're a candidate. If not then no you shouldn't be. With Mike Trout, the angels don't sniff the playoffs, without mike trouth they don't sniff the playoffs. This shouldn't be complicated.
  21. Will be interesting to see what Harper gets. Whatever he gets Mookie will get more. $300 million may be Mookie's asking price. gulp.
  22. Major props to this team but that 2004 team are like the beatles like I said. Can't top it.
  23. Yeah 2004 is and forever will be a legendary team. As great as this team is that 2004 team will always be celebrated like The Beatles.
  24. True. but for me it's more for sentimental reasons.
