shysocks 0 Posted April 6, 2015 Didn't see it mentioned anywhere else on the site: The Indians locked up Kluber for 5/$32.5 with two option years. Other than Kluber's age at signing, which is a big factor, it is reminiscent of Sale's contract. Kluber will turn 29 this week, whereas Sale was what, 23 when he signed his?

shysocks 0 Posted April 6, 2015 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 3, 2015 -> 04:10 PM) It's not that bad for the Twins. They save over $6 million and it's not like they had any chance to compete this year anyway. You make a good point, but I think in general you'd like guys on 4-year deals not to get busted for steroids before they've played a game for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They also signed Carrasco long term. It doesn't even feel like news anymore when teams lock up players for their first 1 or 2 FA years, it's normal operating procedure.

Obviously, the offseason and then spring training didn't go well for the Nathan-Tigers' fans relationship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
