AA is going to have a hard time getting him to agree to a 12/200 deal with an annual 1M donation to the Braves foundation.
AA is going to have a hard time getting him to agree to a 12/200 deal with an annual 1M donation to the Braves foundation.
Also, 2 SP with years of control, smart gm don't trade them. Will be a bad long term move , like AA did when trading Syndergaard . Hahaha, can say the same if you have a young catcher who have...
I'm in the same boat in that I think it's far too soon to give up on Manoah and ship him out for a mediocre return relative to what he can provide if he returns to form. It's maybe not realistic to...
Why do you even care so much about this Braves trade FFS? Geez you guys need to get a life!
Braves will still be a 95-100 win team and one of the top teams in baseball next season. Also, they have...
Pretty much the entire lineup had career-worst slugging %
Willing to give him a pass as well as Vladdy and Kirk. If they all look the same next year then we’re in trouble
After we sign Ohtani we should debut Kikuchi's name on the Level of Excellence on Opening Day.

Ok folks I know I hung up my badge months ago but special times call for special measures. We are finalists to sign the greatest player since Babe Ruth and everyone is going to need to be on their...
Best player since Babe Ruth and we are in the finals. Yeah it's still probably a long shot but it's still a shot people.
If you don't feel some rustling in your jimmies right now then you need to...
So what?
Prince enforcing is good. Sometimes you actually get the guy at a price you would want to pay, if the other team unexpectedly bows out or if nobody else wants to pay fair $.
It's not...
Jays need to take advanatge of these broke teams losing their TV deals.
From Rosenthals piece today:
"The Rangers and the Guardians are the two teams most in jeopardy of losing their rights...
Where the hell is Drake right now anyway? If we are going to sign Ohtani we need all hands on deck.
I know Geddy Lee is pulling out all the stops but there's only so much he can do at age 85.
...
Never deal with the Rays. The Jays could send over 3 of their worst/lowest prospects and they would all turn into studs.
Fricken Rays. They lost Franco, now they'll probably trade Arozarena and Glasnow yet still win 90+ games next season.
Probably Wagner was earning 120,000 or something, which is good money for fly-over America, but like Poverty level for Toronto, and he asked for 150,000 or something so he could at least buy a...
2 mozza burgers for $12.99. What a deal!
That’s like the A&W coupons in Canada where you can get two teen burger meals for like 17.99 AS A DEAL
Give me a break
I had dinner last night with my friend who has been letting me know about call ups and trades for a few seasons, I've discovered how he knows so much information for someone who doesn't work in...
If you haven't watched this already check out the Baseball Doesn't Exist breakdown of the kind of revenue Ohtani generated for the Angels.

Ya they might have yelled at the core to get in shape
Bo is probably the most serious player the Blue Jays has. He just criticised management and he didn't openly do that either and Atkins has a fragile ego.
You asked me a rhetorical question about AA being fired because they didn’t win the WS. As if one were to fire Atkins by the same logic you would have to fire Anthopolous too.
I replied that AA...
I was talking more about current players on the roster signing contract extensions versus FA deals because usually FA are just going to go to the highest bidder.
Atlanta singed Acuna, Albies,...
I'm actually a fan of Shapiro but it is ironic he scolded AA for trading all those prospects meanwhile the organization he ran screwed up by waiting too long to trade players off the roster. If they...
Perhaps AA's biggest strength as a GM was his ability in contract negotiations. Even during his time in Toronto he did fantastic signing Bautista and Edwin to team friendly deals. The Yunell Escobar...
