Bob Sacamano Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 5 minutes ago, Vulture said: Sugano has apparently decided to pass on joining the American nightmare and is reportedly returning to the NPB. His posting deadline passed at 5 pm. Yep. He wanted to beat Kikuchi's deal with Seattle. Picked a bad year to come over. Luckily, he got 4 years and 3 opt outs with his old team.

While we needed a RF, I just have a feeling the Eaton deal will look like an overpay when all is said and done this offseason and this Schwarber deal may support that.

This is part of the price they pay when they jump in early to target players and not wait for the market. Sometimes they will overpay, sometimes under but at least they have a player they liked and aren't waiting it out like the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Wow, Schwarber got $10M...that’s slightly more than he was projected to get in arbitration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold's Leg Lift Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 He got $10M. He was projected to get $7-$9M in arbitration so he gets released and makes more money. The system is so fucked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mets are $24M below the luxury tax threshold and would probably prefer someone who can play CF, so I’m guessing it’s not them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
