    I agree it would depend on if Detroit thinks they have a good chance of winning.
  2. Old Red
    Once again the two sides can still settle on a different figure before going to arbitration.

    Well said. I’ve been saying for the last for 3 years now that the JH of today is not the same JH that bought the Red Sox. 20+ years ago, and his priority is not the same like defeating the Evil EMPIRE. Back then too as JH said on the Felger, and Mazz show that LL runs the Red SOX, and that hasn’t been the case for years now.

    I know what the definition of what sham is, but not only did I not believe it I didn’t really pay any attention to it. You bought it hook, line, and sinker. You have a problem with it, and I don’t. Just like I don’t pay any attention to what Sam says at the year end presser every year. Like I said before the Red SOX have been peeing on fans, and telling them it’s rain. Some have figured out to get a raincoat, and some have not.

    I’ll rephrase to say in more years, and more money than I would pay.

    If we sign Bregman then great, but I’m just not in the camp that he has to be signed at any, and all cost.
  7. Old Red
    Full throttle was only a sham if you believed it. I didn’t. I’ve been saying the last three off seasons that I’ll believe it when I see it, so no I didn’t think it was a sham.

    If teams want Skubal bad enough to trade for I don’t think it would matter at all if he’s making $19M, or $25M, and that will have NO BEARING on what Skubal will get in the future. What he gets in 2026 won’t matter when it comes to signing him long term after that IMO.
  9. Old Red
    I understand fully the arbitration guy can’t pick $25M, but that doesn’t mean the Tigers, and Skubal can’t get together before arbitration, and settle.🙈
  10. Old Red
    These were all agreed upon, and not rewarded though.
  11. Old Red
    I’m glad you’ll be waiting for me, because I’ll be way down the list that has started already especially out in RSN. SHAM, SHAM, SHAM.🤫
  12. Old Red
    It doesn’t hurt to try. Maybe they come together in the middle somewhere around $25M.
  13. Old Red
    Vlad Jr has the highest win at $19.9M.
  14. Old Red
    Skubal wants $32M.
  15. Old Red
    A big NO on $170/6, or anything close. 3 yrs, or 4 years max, and then MOVE on.
  16. Old Red
    There are so many rumors, and reports out there that none of them may even be true. The Red Sox May have made an offer, but most likely not good enough to BorASS, and Bregman.
  17. Old Red
    As I keep saying he’s a good player, but he’s not a Mike Schmidt, or George Brett, and he’s starting to get older, so I don’t think he’s someone worth going large, and long on like 5 years. I said the first contract, which was 3 years was just right in years.
  18. Old Red
    Alonso was worth $85M to Boston, but $155M to Baltimore. Flintstone was worth $150M to Philly, but the Red Sox didn’t even put in an offer , so just, because those players got that much money from other teams doesn’t mean Bregman should get that much from the Red Sox especially when JH has the checkbook. Most likely both Alonso, and Flintstone will hit more HR, and have more RBI then Bregman the next five years. No doubt Bregman plays a good D, so it all depends on what you want, and what you want to pay.
  19. Old Red
    But I don’t believe at any cost. I understand he would help, but I think some, and I’m not saying you are fixated more on his hot start last year, and not how he eventually finished up the season injury, and all, and now he’s a year older.
  20. Old Red
    No buyout, and no option years. That’s why we’re going through this right now on if he’s coming back, or not. Make him a straight up offer, which supposedly they have done, and if he doesn’t want it then move on.
  21. Old Red
    A lot more money.
  22. Old Red
    It’s all make believe if that’s what you like.
  23. Old Red
    Yeah, yeah.🤔
  24. Old Red
    I agree, and as I’ve said many times that Raffy was the last man standing after Mookie, and Bogey left.
  25. Old Red
    I don’t think they will. Of course Donavan has been mentioned on here as well, which be cheaper in money, and what it would take to get him, but it’s a drop off too from what Marte would bring.
