That might be why the return looks light. Cincy cheaping out again.

Williamson is a good prospect, but you'd think it would have taken more than this to get Winker. Not having a good farm system really sucks.

It's gonna be sad when we get outbid by the Rockies.

Is someone gonna tell Joe that Kimbrel might not be here for long?

That's a little better than I thought.

For real. If they really wanted him back, they would have paid him.

You're protected when your car crashes. Alonso's car flipped 3 times and he still ended up ok and ready to play. Had Tatis flipped over 3 times while on his bike, he'd be lucky to just have a broken wrist.

If that hobby interfered with my ability to do my work, then yes.

If you're the Padres, how do you let this man ride his motorcycle and get into accidents when you have 300 million $ invested into him?

That looks like the Samardzija trade all over again.

I would be kinda pissed if I'm a Braves fan. Olson's good, but they gave up a ton for him when all Freeman would have cost is money.

Wow that's a lot. Pache isn't the prospect he once was, but that's 3 top 10 prospects from the Braves system.

That guy has 6 k followers and isn't verified. I'd believe Murray over them.

A lot of projections had Suzuki around the $10 million a year range. If he's getting almost $15 million a year, then Conforto is probably getting $20 million/year.

I think this is the first real big domino to fall that will open the floodgates for position player signings.

Torres makes no sense for the A's though. They're not looking for guys in their arb years.

Freeman to the Dodgers?

I think the Yankees would be ok with Rizzo at 1B. It all really depends on where Freeman signs. If Freeman signs with LA, I can see Atlanta ending up with Olson. If Freeman re-signs with ATL, the Dodgers probably end up with Olson.

But if he bombs, they gotta pay him another $22 million.

lol that did come across my mind.

Tatis avoids surgeries like Kyrie avoids the vaccine.

lmao he clearly reads this board

This will probably be the case for everyone. Blame it on MLB for cutting spring training in half.

This team has never been all that smart in terms of resource allocation. If we really spend $30 million on some utility guys and relievers and call it a day, it would be an absolute disaster.

Kelly's lucky he didn't have to miss 6 months. His injury was in mid October. Even in the worst case scenario he should be back by mid April.
