No political talk peeps.

Correa literally broke laws and went to jail. The nuance stops right there.

Both of them needed to say they accept responsibility and just ended their statements. Instead they both look like absolute jokes

Yes I'm sure the criminal is glad that the guy he hacked is getting his comeuppance ?

Reinsdorf should give him a paycheck every year for the rest of his life for robbing him of 1994

I understand these are billionaires and they should be able to blow past theoretical luxury tax limits and such, but these are still businesses. The Yankees had to swallow hard the last few years and make due with the high payroll, the Red Sox are trying to stay under the tax right now, and the cubs are doing the same thing. I don't feel sorry for any of those teams because they are messes of their own making, but I understand why they don't want to go over the threshold and get penalized

Nobody here is sad for Ricketts.

Honestly wouldn't think it would be a bad thing to reshoot the "good guys wear black" commercials frame by frame with the current players

Vikings OC Kevin Stefanski to be named Browns HC

This offseason has shown that money is indeed an object to Ricketts

He rejected their extension proposal and now they are in court for his service time manipulation. I think the time for solving it all by throwing a lot of money at him has long since passed, in fact it may not ever have been much of a possibility. Boras made it pretty well known that they were pretty pissed off that he was held down for the extra year. Bryant is gonna be traded.

2020O

Lol Bryant as the everyday Cf? Ok then

So, the Yankees failing to deal Clint Frazier at the height of his value indicates.....that Sabermetrics contributes to your opinion a front office being too conservative???? The Yankees. The New York Yankees were too conservative and over reliant on sabermetrics and this is the result.

I'm still trying to figure out why Friedman holding on to players like Seager, Bellinger, Buehler is a bad thing when his teams are still winning 92+ games every year and knocking on the door of a championship

Nobody is pointing to them as the reason for the job not getting done but you

The cubs and Red Sox both run heavy sabermetric based front offices. The royals lost every player that won for them because they wouldn't pay them and none of that has to do with sabermetrics

Connect it to the team being conservative. Don't name a sabermetric value and waive your hand dismissively at it. A team prioritizing a better deal for a better player doesn't make sabermetrics bad

Honestly man, every time you make one of these proclamations without doing any sort of rudimentary research you just spin yourself deeper and deeper. Everything you have said is just wrong and you know it. The dodgers have made the World Series multiple times in the past five years, they are one of the if not the most winning team in the national league over the last decade. At no point can you say that their moves have been detrimental to the success of the team

Playoffs. Are. A. Crapshoot. you have yet to name one team that favors $/war over winning. In fact, you have named four teams that USE $/war and win. the 90s Braves aren't even part of a sabermetric argument so quit trying to move the goalposts

Playoffs are a crapshoot, consistently getting to the playoffs means you are winning. Your argument just now stated that teams aren't trying to win in favor of saving money. I ask you how many games they won this season and all the sudden it doesn't matter. Their payroll approaches 200 million, and you say Friedman is running the team like he did in Tampa. This argument is all bullshit and you know it

How many games did they win last season

Please explain how they did not try to win
