I doubt there's a bunch of teams with 40 million to spend on Verlander who are trying to win. He could sign for more than 25 with his tax figure...
Do you understand the Astros don't pay buyout money for players on other teams? You really think if he's pitching well we aren't flipping him for...
Yeah, I'm just going to go ahead and block you now. You aren't a reasonable person who can actually admit they are wrong. I've already...
I appreciate the effort. I do think most of your data is correct but i do see some flaws in assumptions. My basic arbitration estimates: Tucker -...
As i stated before, i didn't factor in the average salaries. Please do try to keep up. If i miss something i do admit it.. i also included...
You're also assuming no actions to manipulate the tax. For example they could offer extensions and spread out altuve and Bregman over more...
It's a fair point about the average salaries of the contracts counting for tax purposes. That being said, you're basically projecting everything...
So trading for Greinke made no sense to you? 1) Why do you assume they take on all 20 million? 2) Korey Lee will be a cheap primary catcher....

Except the hope is he goes back to the guy who led the AL in 2 of the 3 triple crown categories. He can catch 3 of the 5 starters and dh one of...
I'm confused, you're arguing the big money is a reason to keep a 32 year old catcher hitting .199 this season????? It's a gamble by Houston he...
I doubt he's available but I would give up Leon, Ivey, and another prospect for Salvador Perez. He's face of their franchise but 32 and having a...
I'm not sold on it either but i would do it under these conditions: 1) Whoever is available at #3 is evaluated by our scouts is lower ceiling...
To Knicks Donovan Mitchell John Wall Azubuike To Jazz Christian Wood JaeSean Tate Alec Burks Evan Fournier Kemba Walker #3 pick Future pick from...
Sixers wire be like: Will you take our mistake for Christian Wood? These guys are out of their mind. I don't even consider without 3 first...
Yordan clearly more power than Bags, but Bags had a better eye, better defense, and better base running... Bags admitted to trying roids before...
