  1. Yes, he is back in New York so I don’t need to worry about him here.
  2. The fact he hangs around with the gate 12 guys makes me question his intelligence.
  3. Gross
  4. Alonso strikes me as the kind of guy who would be afraid of the metric system so I never thought it was possible he was coming here.
  5. Do you suppose there is a chance that one of them has accepted already and they are doing Boras a favour of holding off on announcing so it doesn’t take them out as a suited for his other client?
  6. It really saddens me that 150 innings is the bar for an innings water now.
  7. Did they figure out how to get steroids and HGH past the testers? Seems like that might be needed to pull a Clemens.
  8. My thoughts on this is he figures this team either does well and he has a chance in the playoffs or they don’t and they blow it up and send him to a contender at the deadline.
  9. There are some questions in the advanced metrics as to how much longer Alonso would provide that one dimension even. And to be fair, Giménez also offers speed in addition to being absolutely elite on defense.
  10. Is there statcast in the park? I think it is concerning statcast numbers that have cost him.
  11. He literally said it was from August in his post dude. That being said, it is important to note that all of that 55 million is now off the books as it was mostly from traded players.
  12. One thing that stood out to me was we had more guys who got votes than AA’s braves did. I found that interesting.
  13. Age. Vlad is so much younger and hasn’t shown signs of bat speed slowing down that Alonso has.
  14. To some extent I bet they do, except it may be different for teams without much money to spend. Ie the Pirates deal with rumours of what player is getting traded away.
  15. Jays had one player make the top 100…just barely. Tiedemann came in at 100. However a number of guys just missed as Yesavage, Nimmala and Orelvis Martinez made the list of 15 who just missed.
  16. If there is one thing we know about Snider it is that the dude could handle his meat.
  17. One thing I found AA excelled at was restocking the cupboard. He would trade from his prospect pool (like in 2013) but then build it back up with assets again pretty quickly. you also have to figure he would have kept Price around for 2016 and who knows what that could have meant.
  18. Holy hell, that’s like 13-20 years of payroll for some other teams.
  19. Right, I forgot about the escrow part (and that it doesn’t count against CBT when it does get paid out…although watch that change in the next CBA)
  20. True, but it means they are penalizing future teams to likely take this team from 5th to 4th.
  21. I am not sure how I feel about the deferred money in this deal. It’s like borrowing money to put a performance tire on one wheel of my Ford Pinto.
  22. Oh yeah? How many gold gloves does Devers have? /sarcasm gold gloves are ridiculous
  23. I am curious, which half are you referring to? Personally, I wouldn’t trade a season for a cap. Even with a cap (or capped salaries) players will still choose the allure and sunshine of LA over other locations. So now other teams will have to pay a larger percentage of their cap to attract players essentially still giving the LA and NY teams an advantage.
  24. He should be in Buffalo but Atkins will have him on the roster to try to save face
