    Yes, this. It’s usually shorthand for “no deferrals” or “deferred money in today’s dollars”.
  2. Brock Beauchamp
    Given the numbers, I also think this came from the organization. It makes the most sense.
  3. Brock Beauchamp
    I was leaning toward blaming the Jays for not getting this done, now I'm leaning toward blaming Vlad. I knew someone would leak the numbers at some point and if Vlad's sticking point is current-day value versus having some deferred money... c'mon. The two sides aren't far apart. This should get done and everyone move on. It appears the Jays are offering somewhere north of $450m in today's value and $500m in money overall. That's way beyond reasonable for a player with so many obvious questions surrounding him.

    You're all spot on, it's Lind.

    This is somewhat Twins-focused but a fun throwback to a very good player most of us haven't thought about in quite awhile. Shannon Stewart: A Memorable Outfielder Who Turned Around The Twins' 2003 Season - History - Twins Daily TWINSDAILY.COM In one of the Twin's best trade deadline acquisitions, Shannon Stewart was obtained at the 2003 trade deadline, propelling the Twins to three division titles in four seasons.

    Yep, we were able to identify the problem yesterday afternoon, the issue should be resolved now.

    Especially if Tucker is asking for seven years and Vlad wants 10+, which very well could end up being the case.
  9. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, I noticed. I sent a note to our server tech, hopefully he can address it this weekend.
  10. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, he's gonna need a 6-win season to get anything close to that, I think. Because if you're going to drop a massive pile of cash on a player, would you pick Tucker or Vlad? I'd go with Tucker, frankly.

    Yep, something is still happening but it's weird none of the other sites are suffering. I've sent another note to our server tech about it.
  13. Brock Beauchamp
    Anyone else seeing this message? We restarted some server instances, which fixed some slowness on the other sites but it seems to be lingering here.

    If you haven't been following the absurdity of what's going on in Red Sox camp, here's a humorous take on it. Stomach Bug Besieges the Fort: Red Sox Bedeviled by Bum Tum - Just For Fun - Talk Sox TALKSOX.COM Internal turmoil has stricken the Red Sox, which is to say that a whole lot of players have a stomach bug.

    I like the comp to Freeman for Vlad. It's a much better comparison than Acuna, Albies, etc. And I think it's often overlooked that both Vlad and Bichette come from generational wealth. That surely gives them a perspective and patience that most other players, particularly Latin players, can't afford to have.
  16. Brock Beauchamp
    Oh by the way, any time any user has a problem, don't hesitate to start a thread in this forum and tell me about it!
  17. Brock Beauchamp
    Thanks. That's also been the case for me, I'll send a note to our server dev.
  18. Brock Beauchamp
    Yeah, that's pretty bad in CAD.
  19. Brock Beauchamp
    In US dollars, that sounds about right. I suspect they have incentives based on social following, history of work, etc.
  20. Brock Beauchamp
    I was wondering if I made it too easy by going with Borders. I'll up the game for next week.
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    I only know the salary of one person at The Athletic and it's a lot more than $50k a year. I'd say closer to double that. Not a fortune by any means but a good salary. Though I have no idea if that's average, below average, or above average within the company.
  22. Brock Beauchamp
    Did you know WBC qualifiers are going on right now? I had no idea until I checked MLB's schedule for the day...
  23. Brock Beauchamp
    The Athletic doesn't have a Jays beat writer? Seriously?
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    Great piece, Jim! From a pure baseball standpoint, strikeouts aren't a big deal but they suck from a spectator viewpoint, which is why people throw such a fit about them (and conflate them as a terrible baseball outcome).
  25. Brock Beauchamp
    This is a game we play on the other sites and I wanted to bring it over here. Guess the player, the unobscured image will be released in three days or so.
