he could have signed a week ago, and we could have signed Moustakas for fallback option, but instead, he wait stil Moose signs with Milwaukee. Now our options suck at 3b.

I don't get that signing for either side. Machado will end up demanding a trade because of losing so much because... - Inigo Feb 19, 09:46 3

Can't wait for the trade deadline in 2022 when Diego looks to unload him to the Red Sox. -- nm - The Commander Feb 19, 09:45 14

    - How? He got a reasonably fair market value -- you can't spend all winter complaining that no one's spending; then get pissed when a - Will Hunting Feb 19, 09:55 11
      - First, I didn't complain about shit. The Cardinals did the smart thing and got Goldy. But when the huge free agent signs a historic deal... - The Commander Feb 19, 10:02 4

        No shit, dude. Course, if I'm him - I'd want to see what playing in St. Louis is like first. nm - The Commander Feb 19, 10:08 2
        
        Related - thank god the Blues started winning some games - I was already tired of the local sports guys obsessing over getting him locked up long term - The Commander Feb 19, 10:13 1
        
        He's like Freddie Freeman, a really good guy who quietly rakes. - David Feb 19, 10:14

        Sure it is based on 7-8mil per WAR. You're buying 40 WAR over a decade. He's done 33 WAR in 6 1/3 years - Will Hunting Feb 19, 10:00 4
        
        I do not believe in that figure for per WAR value. -- nm - groiny Feb 19, 10:02 3
        
        Until the last 2 years, it's been the benchmark for years. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 19, 10:26 2
