  1. Ferland is basically replacement level, no different than Andreas Johnsson or other dudes you can find each season. YOLO.
  2. Eric Pardeenyo is experiencing elbow soreness.
  3. That's actually such a stupid deal for the White Sox. You're paying Eloy like he's already Giancarlo Stanton, guaranteed. And for what? So you can call him up right away? He has no leverage. I've long advocated offering an extension of this length to Vlad, but it would have to be $75M... $100M is just whack.
  4. We talked about this at some length in last night's podcast... stay tuned.
  5. The players would never go for that. They would argue there is no one authoritative WAR, they would argue that WAR doesn't accurately represent their abilities, they would argue that their WAR was intentionally suppressed by the team to reduce salary... many many problems.
  6. Baseball Marxism in full swing up in hyaw.
  7. You're a commie.
  8. He knew the deal! How the hell can he complain? He's going to be rich beyond his wildest dreams very soon. He can't wait another year to get what he always knew was coming? My god. Not to mention, $600K is plenty of money to live on, even if his signing bonus was garbage, which it wasn't. His signing bonus alone is more than you'll make in your career! This is a mind-boggling display of greed. Alex Bregman should pull his own dick out of his mouth and get a shred of self-awareness.
  9. Do we want every player to get paid exactly what they're worth as soon as they're worth it? Or do we want 30 teams who are actually capable of theoretically competing? These two things are mutually exclusive. We as fans should absolutely not care about the supposed injustice of soon-to-be very rich men getting rich a little bit sooner.
  10. Because Alex Bregman is a rich ****.
  11. Reported for being a truthbomb.
  12. No offence but I think it's a f***ing retarded argument. If you want a totally free market, then you should outlaw everything other than 1 year deals. If Alex Bregman gets hurt and misses 162 games, how about we pay him $0 the following year? How about non-guaranteed contracts so Anaheim can rip up the abomination of a deal that Pujols signed? Players don't get paid what they DESERVE, that's never been the deal. Players get paid what they can NEGOTIATE at the moments in their careers where they are afforded the luxury to do so based on the agreement that their own union negotiated. Bregman's current production is already baked into the leverage he had when he signed his signing bonus. f*** Alex Bregman and f*** you, commie!
  13. That's nonsense. This system enriches Alex Bregman type players more than anyone. Not only does he get a huge signing bonus, he's going to be making boatloads of money very soon in arb and FA. It's the Kevin Pillars who should be complaining, if anything. The players who don't get big bonuses, the players whose skillsets don't get rewarded in arbitration, the players who get chewed up and spit out for their cheap productive years and then struggle to find big league jobs. Alex Bregman doesn't have a damn thing to complain about.
  14. So f***ing what? Wait your turn to get paid like everyone else. He's not special. Even Mike Trout doesn't get to bypass the system.
  15. I'm getting really sick and tired of superstar players and the union complaining about being poor. Bregman got a motherf***ing $5.9M signing bonus and gets paid $500k per year to play baseball. Most of the people in this forum will never even make half of that in a year. As soon as he gets to arb he's going to be making 8 figures, even if he never signs a long-term extension for some reason. Who the f*** does he think he is?
  16. What a f***ing ****. Did Bregman's agent never explain the CBA and how arbitration and free agency works? You get paid the minimum til arbitration, deal with it. Jackass. You want more? Sign a long-term extension. There is no middle ground.
  17. You can just watch Tellez take a few ABs to know that his bat speed is going to get him eaten alive. It will not work, abandon all hope.
