Toronto signing someone else isn't a bad thing

Oh oh I know this one! Gausman has signed with nobody yet and he had about 12 teams after him.

Don’t worry. Ray is going to throw us all off and jump too for our sake.

That would be interesting. The Marlins have been talking with him but last I remember he wanted way too much money for them.

He's going to be declining by the time that team gets good again.

Yankees didn't give him 7 years. Guess they are a small market team too.

I think the Rangers probably were forced to do that. Their team is a ways away and plenty of others in the bidding.

Good news for Parkman he gets others to wallow in his misery.

Haven't we done that many times on here?

No thanks to Rodon

Deadlines are cool. Good things happen when teams have a date they need to do stuff by. Now I'm not sure we do anything by then but I bet this is only the tip of the iceberg for the rest of the league. Should be a fun next few days.

Jesse Crain got a 3 year 13 million dollar deal and his best years were here. If your trying to add to Parkman's argument I don't see how he works. We got all the upside.

Correct. In his case it doesn't mean he wasn't elite. But his peak was Atlanta. Scott Linebrink isn't even the same conversation.

In a different area it happened with trading for Lynn last year. "We need a high in the rotation pitcher bad" to "We gave up what? What the hell is wrong with them". Unless you getting good players for trash there's people upset here always.

Well it's reinforcing Chi Sox's point. He wasn't at his peak then.
