  1. There's just so much risk there. You'd almost have to know 100% beforehand that he'd decline. If the team has ~30M to spend on two starters and ties half of it up on a guy that every projection system will have with an ERA close to 4.5 would be disastrous.
  2. http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/eye-on-baseball/25333950/qualifying-offer-set-at-158-million-which-f_2 $15.8M My bad earlier saying 17.
  3. Santana was actually good though.
  4. I'm curious as to what everyone thinks of Hector Santiago. If he were a Blue Jay, would you offer him 17M? If not, what makes Estrada the much better investment?
  5. 1/17 is a lot of money. There isn't a recent precedent for a pitcher projected at like a 4.5 ERA getting a contract big enough to turn it down. Not that it can't happen, but there aren't a lot of truly stupid FO's left.
  6. Yeah, I probably wouldn't go there. I do think he has a case though with the recent Nolasco/Santana/Jimenez signings. When JAson Vargas gets 4/32, Chen can get a fair bit more IMO.
  7. Interested on the cyborg's take on whether Estrada should/will be QO'd.
  8. The way I look at it is like this: knowing that they have Lindor, knowing their payroll constraints, and knowing how averse they are to risky long term contracts, if Tulo were a free agent would Cleveland want him at 5/100? I don't even think they'd make a phone call. I really think him at that contract would be of no interest at all to them, let alone at the cost of a legit ace on one of the best contracts in baseball.
  9. All things considered, I don't think Tulo is even in the same range of value as Carrasco. You'd probably get a "no thanks" if you offered Cleveland Tulo and his contract for free right now.
  10. Yes, but why are you telling me this?
  11. Don't forget Alex Cobb! I think we just became best friends.
  12. Punching down is in bad taste, champ.
  13. I sure hope the True Cards don't become the Cubs of the DDL and go almost 100 years without a title. I'll have to start training my future child from birth to be a great fantasy baseball player so they can bring me glory.
  14. Gordon is a free agent? For some reason I hadn't noticed this.
  15. Damn, we better have a LOD replacement ready, just in case...
  16. What's Lowe going to cost? Something like 3/15?
  17. I'm 28 and find myself trending towards 2).
  18. Happy Birthday Dinger DDL is getting old
  19. Also, the team was 15-28 in 1-run games. Also, they won fewer 1-run games than any other team in the league, and still won 93 games. That means that they tended to win games by more than one run. Only this forum would get on the manager for winning games by a large margin more often than any other team in the league.
  20. The term 'egregious mistake' was a forum meme. The thread is tongue-in-cheek. Lighten up.
  21. They didn't even have enough cash to afford two months of Danny Valencia...
  22. That's for 2017. He's projected to go to 12 this year.
