Sounds suspiciously Cubby yuppie like. We need our southside birds to be more gritty and high in twtw.

This is Chicago. It's either got to a pigeon or a sea gull.

Players of note without options below.

I hadn't heard this yet.

Almost as if the other teams weren't interested in them.

It's almost like the other 29 teams out there realized the same thing and knew they could chance them on waivers in six months.

Honestly, they just need to DFA him and get it over with.

Ah, took "this guy" as Micker.

In order for this to happen, Micker has to clear waivers and have no one claim him.

6 to 8 weeks (42-56 days) is a BIT short of 60 days FWIW. Going to guess Yermin doesn't go to the 60.

Looks like last year included a groin injury (Sept), COVID (july), and personal issues(Apr-May), and groin/hamstring during spring training.

Yeah, it sounds like I don't have to worry about him dying in the OF so that is nice.

More like Chitterlings.

At $10 a pop, or whatever the price is now, it won't matter to me anyways.

It has to be a low level minor league return if the return wasn't a headline in the story. My guess, no Kimbrel, no Burger. Phillies might just need the roster slot.

Forget it, he's rolling.

Archer has 6 million in incentives for the record.

This apology is actually pretty amazing. He personally takes blame, apologies for his actions, and shows some humility.

A 7 or 8 year pushes that back by how much?

It is important to realize that Gio is only in his 2nd arb year. Last year when this deal was kicked around he was in his first. It wouldn't be hard to put together something like 8/12/22/25 with option for 25, including a $5 million buyout and a 3 million dollar signing bonus to come up with a 4/70 or 5/90 structure and be around market value for the type of extension we are taking about. It would get the Sox some certainty, while still giving Gio a run at FA early, without breaking the bank.
