It'll be a new low if we lose out on our targets to the fucking Rockies.

Ummm...isn't that former White Sox Zach Thompson?

Needed him in there to clear the $560 million mark.

Interested to see who they gave up.

Holy shit. The Rangers just spent half a billion dollars in 2 days.

It really is a philosophical problem with this franchise. We love to spend money on mid-market players. It's not like we don't have a high payroll. We do, but our highest paid player is making under $20 million and we've never signed a free agent for a higher AAV than $19 million. If you asked this FO if they'd rather have one 6 WAR player making $30 million a year over 5 years or if they could sign three 2 WAR players over 3 years for $36 million combined a year they'd probably take the latter every time.

Wait, are you saying we can't even compete for free agents with the likes of the Blue Jays and Mariners? That's even sadder.

lol I wouldn't put it past the FO to royally screw up a 2nd time with Kimbrel.

I'm honestly surprised how reasonable the Ray and Gausman deals have been. Berrios too.

I'm gonna guess the Harold post about them misreading the market was about Ray.

Boob strikes again. Says we're interested in both Semien and Ray and they sign with someone else.

I'm gonna guess the Sox were interested but weren't willing to go above $100 million or 5 years.

At least he's not signing with an AL Central team. We can't hit that guy to save our lives.

Oh damn. I'll need to sharpen my pitchfork tonight then.

Aren't there 2 more days until the work stoppage? I'll wait until then to be really pissed off that we did nothing.

I'm still not sure why they decided to trade Gallo when they were going to spend a massive amount of money this off-season to get better. It's not like the Yankees wow'd them with their offer.

Remember when nobody wanted to work or play for the Mets like 2 weeks ago? I guess money does solve some things.

I thought Scherzer would easily get 3 years and 100+ million. I didn't think he'd get 3 years and $130 million though. Cohen really wanted Scherzer.

Just need Nightengale to tweet about it so he ends up signing with the Dodgers.

Stallings catches against lefties, Grandal against righties. Grandal and Sheets platoon at DH.

He was above average last year. I thought he was hitting the ball hard, just not very far. Which is why I thought the ball change sapped a lot of his power. If TA hit with the old ball last year he probably would have hit 30+ homers. He was definitely on track for that in the shortened 2020 season. I really think the ball change affected some of the mid-power guys in baseball.

He follows 69 people. That should tell you about the seriousness of that account lol.

I doubt Javy or Story would want to play 2B when they're better defensively than TA is at SS.

lmao all you had to do was look at his name to know it's a troll account.
