  1. Irrelevant though, you don't get Price for 5/150. I'd absolutely do that, but there's no way he signs it. God I hate even trying to debate with you. It always goes the same way. You say something, I argue it, you call me a moron without actually understanding what I'm saying, build a strawman and then be massively condescending about it. Things that generally help a conversation include actually understanding what the other person is saying and avoiding the use of strawmans, but if that's too much to ask from you then I won't bother trying anymore.
  2. Says who, mj?
  3. Tulo Donaldson Encarnacion Bautista Martin Colabello? Goins?
  4. Again, there are other ways to accomplish this.
  5. Jays won't have a TON of money to spend next year. Players get raises which erases a lot of the savings.
  6. It's back of the napkin, sure, I didn't really feel like going complete and full nerd; but it's close enough. It's unlikely Price will provide around $200m of value. I'm asserting that the contract will lose them more in the latter years than it'll gain in the former years. $30m per year is a ridiculous salary to pay a pitcher, or anyone, and with the Scherzer contract, that's what you're looking at.
  7. Imo we won't see another Buehrle for a very long time. He's so rare and unique and... lovable.
  8. No. Literally every single team in baseball would want David Price when not considering money. Every single one. There is no need to sign a contract that you know loses you money. There are better ways to acquire talent.
  9. Price, on a $28m AAV for 7 years, totaling $196m, would have to contribute 26 WAR over 7 years, coming down to 3.7 WAR per season. I cannot understate how unlikely that is to happen.
  10. Take money out of the equation and Price is a great fit for insert MLB team here
  11. Lol and you're telling me I'm making a moronic statement. In what world doesn't Price get $30m?
  12. if you want the problem, idk, go read the last 72 pages instead of randomly necroing a mercifully dead thread? mods?
  13. Sure. And constraining your spending abilities on one pitcher will impact your ability to add good pitchers.
  14. "mega prospect" lol I figured it was Werth for Judge
  15. Because committing large sums of money to pitchers over long terms is not conducive to winning.
  16. It's not why can't they. It's why shouldn't they.
  17. Of course spending more can very easily lead to winning more. The thing is though, it isn't really necessary nowadays.
  18. Oh so he's a good reliever you say? GO FIGURE
  19. Bogaerts somehow fetched Scherzer in BBDL
  20. Team (Playoff odds, division odds) Yankees (89%, 46.8%) Blue Jays (89.4%, 48.1%)
  21. Yes the BBDL squad pushed him to make that deal. Really like it for him.
  22. No, lol. There isn't a strong relationship between dollars spent and games won anymore.
