  1. While spitting at people possibly Oops, sorry. Shouldn't mention that. Alomar being best ever blah blah blah.
  2. That's what we would all WANT to say as a GM But the market says he will probably get it. Darvish is seriously underpaid. Free agent crappy number 5 starters are getting paid the same as he is. Mid rotation guys like Ervin Santana and Matt Garza are probably going to get 14-15M. Tanaka is only 25, projects as a 1/2 starter, and is not tied to draft pick compensation. And the posting fee is set at a very reasonable 20M. He'll get what he's asking for.
  3. Tanaka wants "at least" 17M per year http://www.sbnation.com/mlb/2013/12/27/5247690/masahiro-tanaka-rumors-japan-yankees-cubs-rangers
  4. At this point I'll settle for any one of them. Dammit my expectations have dropped in the last 6 weeks.
  5. Did Davidi and Lott's book discuss the Darvish bid at all??
  6. No no, I think this is better too. You know what you're getting in to at least, as a team/GM/owner. And the player should get the benefit. The posting fee still needs to be just enough to make it worthwhile for the team a player is leaving.
  7. Exactly. He can negotiate with multiple teams at once. Anyone that bid 20M. He'll get mad stacks of cash. All this new system does functionally is give more $ to the player and less to the Nippon league team that posts him.
  8. I just looked again at Darvish's 2013 numbers. Holy s***, what a BEAST season he had. Led the majors with 277 strikeouts AND the lowest hits/9 in the AL. ERA+ 145. Yet he got got little attention it seemed, thanks to Scherzer I suppose. For what the Rangers are paying him, he's one of the best deals in baseball.
  9. With our luck he signs with the Jays, throws 55 pitches and blows his arm out
  10. Darvish got ripped off so bad due to old posting rules. But, he accepted...
  11. Sorry to hear all this man. Here's hoping your 2014 is a major improvement. Best wishes.
  12. Absolutely. Merry F'n Christmas everybody.
  13. I want but can't see us getting him. Dodgers Cubs and Yankees seem much more likely.
  14. At least they're getting blankets... wait. Does it get cold in the DR? Ever?? Do they even NEED blankets?
  15. ... for the Buffalo Bisons
  16. LOL extra hard
  17. again, I like that we have more depth in the minors available to fill in when people get hurt. However, starting roster really hasn't improved 1iota since the end of the season. We need more.
  18. ... to be called up from Buffalo every time you get hurt
  19. There's GOLD in that thar waiver wire. GOLD I tell ya!!
