I’m guessing $300 million on the low end if he keeps this up, primarily due to his age and potential.

Yeah, because they are older. Vlad Jr. got paid so much due to youth and potential, but yeah, will likely bottom out on that massive deal. You are comparing a 26/27 year old to Schwarber who signed an extension in December at age 32 and Alonso who signed with Baltimore at age 31.

Vlad Jr. peaked at around 6 WAR and signed his $500 million deal last year.

Because you fall for his game like a lemming. 10-0. Cubs owning the world.

Stir that salad bowl, baby!!!

If he keeps going at this rate, what is he worth? Vlad Jr. is probably the best comp. Good luck, Jerry. Juan Soto (Mets): $765 million (15 years, signed 2024) Shohei Ohtani (Dodgers): $700 million (10 years, signed 2023) Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (Blue Jays): $500 million (14 years, signed 2025) Mike Trout (Angels): $426.5 million (12 years, signed 2019) Mookie Betts (Dodgers): $365 million (12 years, signed 2020)

Yep, he’s only 26. He’s passed them both up. He will be in line for a mega contract once he’s a FA due to his age.

Bergolla is Madrigal v2.0. Not gonna fly in the majors.

See if he can play CF and then they can dump Acuna.

Completely missed this news. Then I really don’t understand taking a TE with their third pick. “The Chicago Bears restructured tight end Cole Kmet’s contract in April 2026, converting $7.65 million of his salary into a bonus to create $3.825 million in immediate 2026 cap space. This move reduced his 2026 cap number to $7.775 million while raising his 2027 cap hit—the final year of his deal—to $15.425 million.“

Don’t tempt the master troll @ron883. He’ll have the Sox in the WS in his next post. 🤣

Good game. Exciting.

A 4.7 forty time at 6’6” and 267 sounds pretty insane. But taking a TE with such a high pick is also a bit crazy considering the team’s needs.

Ahem… I think the Bears will try to trade Kmet but ultimately he will be a pre-June 1st cut. The Bears don’t think he is worth paying $21 million over the next two years with Loveland taking over the primary role.

New game…

Pretty sure she’s not on the crew for her hard-hitting questions…

Throwing home on that flyout with Acuna at 3B is just about as braindead as you can get.

Best Acuna at bat in a Sox uniform.

If he’s at DT, he’s probably slaving away 55+ hours a week. So you could slip right in and snake her, in more ways than one.

Quero and Acuna need Charlotte so bad.

Getz really needs to try sneak Acuna to Charlotte. If he is claimed, oh well…

Brutal. Lame that it can’t be challenged when every game production gets the side shot for every close check swing.

That was awful. Not paying too much attention to the game and have it muted. Could that not be challenged?

Just increasing his price game after game. Crazy. Extension talks… lol.
