    Soto has reportedly received official offers from 5 teams this week.

    Its not so much ignoring longevity... just not quite giving as much credit for it as some do, especially since those extra seasons of CC weren't really close to his peak talents, just slightly above average. On the other hand, when a guy can reinvent himself with worse stuff in order to pitch later on in this career, it's no reason to argue against him either. I guess it just sucks to not see Felix go in, who I think is the better pitcher.
  3. John_Havok
    Plus so many of Felix's Seattle teams were dumpster fires
  4. John_Havok
    I checked and going by 7 year peak, Felix has the edge over CC, imo. CC just managed to have those extra 5 seasons at the end where he wasn't as good, but still decent, so I understand why voters might vote this way.
  5. John_Havok
    On first pass, I dont agree with CC over Felix, id probably have voted for them both. I can understand people dinging Felix for his career ending early though. I think Utley should get in too.

    That's one way to see it. But, if you consider that signing Soto means they will be operating in Luxury Tax territory, that could also mean blasting past the penalty lines and not just signing Soto, but other upper end guys that fill obvious holes. Kinda like last year, there's a budget for Ohtani+, or a stop gap budget. This year it's probably the same. A Soto+ budget instead tho

    This is the most sane and logical back and forth i've seen here in a long time. Kudos.
  8. John_Havok
    Jays made their initial pitch to Soto today. Sources describe the pitch as "impressive"
  9. John_Havok
    CAn you calrify what you mean about signing Santander, Alonso/Hernandez, and Adames for less money and shorter term than Soto? LIke, its obvious any one of them would be less AAV and fewer years, but ... are you saying you could get 3 of those 4 guys together, for less AAV combined than Soto is gonna get?
  10. John_Havok
    Yeah just saw this. Unfortunate, but would be a real bitch move to not let a guy seek a promotion.

    Vlad wins the 1b Silver Slugger. All but guaranteed a 30m final arb contract now.
  12. John_Havok
    For sure. This way, he gets to basically pick who he plays for for the next 7 seasons, then hit FA at 30 and, assuming health, makes a boatload more. What's interesting is that his Japanese team agreed to post him, knowing they're losing out on a boatload of cash.
  13. John_Havok
    Clement and Pop qualify for Super 2 status. Doesn't matter much at the end of the day since neither will make much the first time, and Pop should be released anyways
  14. John_Havok
    Or they could be adding, not replacing.

    Grady Dick. Legit?
  16. John_Havok
    When you first post them they are but a refresh brings them right up.
  17. John_Havok
    Kim and Clement are very close to the same player overall, Kim just walks a bit more. Is the gap in salary between the two worth the extra ... 5-10 OPS+ or WRC+ ? I'd pass on Kim but only because Ernie is here.
  18. John_Havok
    Not surprising but Teo says his priority is resigning with LA
  19. John_Havok
    Worst tradition in MLB. Handing the trophy to the team president rather than a player.
  20. John_Havok
    What a great way to end a World Series. Yankees lose. At home. By playing like dog s***. This is a great day.
  21. John_Havok
    This aged poorly.
  22. John_Havok
    See? Now THIS is a ballgame.
  23. John_Havok
    No doubt. Interfere with a live ball...like ffs. By the looks of that fan there was a bridge missing it's troll.
  24. John_Havok
    I think in totality, if there is a sweep it can certainly be considered a disappointment. Freeman is the only star showing up from either team. There's not even a secondary player making that big of a difference and no "who the f*** is that?" pulling a Pat Borders. Right now, all the story lines aside from Freeman are "where the hell is everyone?" That said, the Yankees are getting s*** on so that's all I really need to enjoy it. It really is the simple things in life.

    Hit a bomb the other day, that's all I know Also, no updates on whether his wife is pregnant yet.
