"I can fix her" - Ross -
Objectively speaking what is $2M in international money worth? Looking at the draft, pick #46 has a bonus cap of $2M and I found an article from 5 years ago that says pick #46 in the draft has a present day surplus value of $6.6M (above the bonus you have to pay the player). So it was/is worth something like that. I know the draft and international scene are not directly comparable but let's just say we can directly do it just to estimate. This means Toronto got $3.75M plus something worth $6.6M ($10.35M total value) in order to assume a contract committing $14.75M to Myles Straw, who doesn't even have to be given a 40 man spot. Okay, there Ross. I did the explaining for you again, you loser. Obviously this assumes Toronto can spend the money appropriately on actual international prospects...

Class of the league with no hardware? Pfffft

But aren't there guys like Harrison Bader and MAT just sitting there in FA? Kike Hernandez?

International Free Agents
Laika replied to Krylian's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
If the Dodgers top three have signed with other clubs... are those other clubs not signing certain choice prospects? Must be some trickle down -
Well, there are pop up international players from time to time. They could wait for one. lmao Ross you f***ing idiot Somehow he made the worst possible outcome even worse.
-
Ross is excited about the possibility of giving himself a chance to think about potentially making it a realistic scenario in which he ends his own life
-
Ross frantically texting BNS after the Dodgers got Sasaki. "BennnnNnnn!!!! Launch the Tony Taters rumours please bro send the tweeeeeet!"
-
Ross just looked at his Steamer/600 of 0.8 WAR and then went to baseballtradevalues.com for a consultation $5M AAV is solid!
-
Man I hope someone in the media grills Atkins on the Straw trade. Rosie DiManno style.

"Forget" to turn on incognito mode

Ross has a healthy work life balance. He probably just popped on the latest 10% Happier podcast and cracked another can of raspberry Bubbly.
-
Isn't going to play? Have you met Ross Atkins? Straw's o/u on plate appearances is probably a solid 300

Good, f*** those dudes

Actual salary cap International draft
-
I thought you switched teams when you were like, fifteen?
-
I mean they took on a bad contract to get a $2M international prospect. Something a rebuilding team with money should do anyway. I guess. Way to go Ross...
-
Trading for Myles Straw and international money in this context is UNFORGIVABLE I HATE RUSS ATKINS SO FING MUCH
-
lolllll
-
WOW AREN'T YOU FUN
-
@Brock Beauchampwitness what you have acquired
-
AJ Minter to the Mets. 2/$22M Same AAV as Heff Joffman despite Minter coming off a -0.1 fWAR season, projecting for 0.5 WAR (Jeff is 1.3) and a big stuff/velo dropoff.

Terminator signs off every email with "govern yourself accordingly." even if it's to his sister. Hi Candy, I was just wondering if you wanted us to bring that pecan pie to thanksgiving this year? Let us know by Thursday so George has time to make it. Govern yourself accordingly, - Term

sorry, didn't mean to imply that I had a job what I meant by "work" most people would find revolting, disgusting, possibly not legal I dunno

I have refreshed mlbtr and this forum like 500 times today. I am literally shaking I can't work or look away from the computer at all. This is identical to the Darvish and Ohtani finish lines. Amazing stuff. I am prepared to have my soul crushed like Ralph Wiggum.
