At the very least he should be a plus defender, just don't count on the fluke offense

Funny thing is all of the same things can be said about Clevinger.

The sad thing is statistically you are probably right, and when 98% of abuse instances go unpunished, you would think that is the actual problem.

Man if wanting to make sure people face penalties for Domestic Violence is "woke" this country is fucked.

Jerry describes his desire as "excellent".

Following the stream of logic here, unless he sues and wins, she isn't guilty of lying...

I have to imagine the bottom team in the AL Central will be much lower than 69 or 70 wins.

Ok, this hashtag needs to happen.

I love the taste of spring training fluff in the morning!

Stop quoting entire articles and think about this for a second. By the time he paid a smuggler, an agent, and taxes, how much of that original deal do you really think was left? Even the Chicago extension has paid him something like $25 million before taxes and agents so far, with just over $40 million left that is promised. His real powerball moment happens if he plays like 2019 and gets his $300 million contract. If he doesn't the money train derails after 2 more years.

Because no one is signing $300 million deals these days

This is a real good point. The tax hit can't be nearly what it's been made out to be unless Jerry had double or tripled his ownership stake.

I know people think they got lazy after they got paid, but despite that thought, anyone with baseball IQ realizes that it is their NEXT contract that gives them multigenerational wealth.

I am really hoping for a fast start to get me going again. I never have been so meh about baseball. After the strike years I was mad, and didn't go to a game for about 4 years, but that was anger. For me, it is just apathy. No excitement, no buying tickets, hats, etc. I just can't give it any energy.
