Strasburg is 31...this is a Pujols-esque type deal that they'll regret -- nm - Flavorize--strolling through Disney+ Dec 9, 12:59 1
- It ends at 38...it’s not a Pujols deal. If he ages normally, he’ll be a drain for 2 years. Albert was a drain with 5 years left. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 9, 13:24
Holy crap! That's a massive overpay. - Will Hunting Dec 9, 12:10 1
- 80mil is deferred (with interest) so it's not quite as crazy-assed absurd - Will Hunting Dec 9, 12:29
I wonder if $260 over seven years would get Cole -- nm - Krustylu Dec 9, 12:04 4
- Unless Stras is like 150mil defferred, I'd say no. Cole is better outside the margins. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 9, 12:12 3
  - $280m over 7? That's 40m per -- nm - Krustylu Dec 9, 12:18 2
    - Stras just got the contract Cole was offered by the Yanks. Cole is not-insignicantly better. Ergo.... - Will Hunting Dec 9, 12:21 1
      - $40 a year is crazy money and should be enough -- nm - Krustylu Dec 9, 12:21
Fuck. -- nm - nubby Dec 9, 11:59 12
- You thought the Braves would drop that coin? -- nm - Krustylu Dec 9, 12:03 11
  - Oh, no, even though I'd dreamed about it. But it'd be nice not to have to face him so much. -- nm - nubby Dec 9, 12:22 6
    - I get that. I'm rooting for Mookie Betts to be traded to the national league -- nm - Krustylu Dec 9, 12:32 5
      - How about just out of division? *waggles eyebrows* -- nm - spamlet Dec 9, 12:43 4
        
        Definitely not to you guys. The Good Sox are going to be title contenders in a year or two. I'd rather not see him at all, if possible. - Krustylu Dec 9, 12:53 3
        
        It’d be nice to be good for a change. I don’t really see us landing him. The price will be too high for one year of control and we lack mid-tier guys. -- nm - spamlet Dec 9, 13:12 2
        
        I think you could sell him on that team and the city to stay. -- nm - Krustylu Dec 9, 13:23 1
        
        He wants the choice which means most money. - Will Hunting Dec 9, 13:25
  - or that someone out of division would. -- nm - Reagen Dec 9, 12:05 3
    - That's reasonable and I'm a little surprised he's heading back. I didn't think they'd pay him this sum -- nm - Krustylu Dec 9, 12:06 2
      - He's the original Natinal. They had to keep him. -- nm - David Dec 9, 12:11 1
        
        Well, Zimmmerman is Mr. National but Stras is 2nd. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 9, 12:13
