Negotiations have been ongoing to establish the prizes for this contest. It looks like the autographed Spanky and Tercet hugging pic isn't going to happen. So we have two prizes for this contest.
J4L has the final say on the tiebreakers and will post shortly.
The two prizes going to the winner will be a Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Toronto Blue Jays Majestic Alternate Official Cool Base Player Jersey - Royal Blue and a $50 Lids gift card, good in store or online.
This will allow for a start of the season baseball survivor contest for additional prizes.
The Rays should do this as well. Could you imagine adding 30 wins to a 90 win team. Plus they could trade all the excess and stock the farm.

No need for any relievers. Just every 4th day you set up a 5 and 4 scenario.
3 years $96M for Price. Throwing in $30M the Sox will get a piece for him. Maybe even $20M. He still had a 3.62 FIP/3.73 xFIP and got his swinging strike rate back to what it was when he was elite. He has age based injury concern but he's an upgrade for half of the contenders, and 3 years of risk is probably less than free agent market.

Let J4L know if something isn't correct.

Betts for Syndergaard seems so perfect to me. Allows Boston to save probably $15M (and get under the luxury tax), without having to start over. The Mets make a big splash again and get a shot to extend Betts
