Good good

5 years, $60M. With incentives and options, the deal is actually worth 9 years, $288M. What a dumbass.

Sorry, that was Christian Walker

I thought of them earlier. Weird.

Didn't see that. Thanks. Also dumb because Benintendi is terrible against lefties ha

Ok

True. Just need someone to hold it down until he comes up

wtf Guardians lol

The Yankees can do this, trade for Bellinger, Arenado, and sign Walker and I think they're a better team than last year.

Congrats to Nationals for getting Ethan Holliday

Yankees sign Fried to 8-year deal https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/12/yankees-max-fried-agree-to-eight-year-deal.html

His numbers are actually pretty split. I think Slater platoons with Benintendi or one of the younger guys.

It does look like the Rule 5 Draft starts at 2PM ET tomorrow so its later than it used to be. I don't think the meetings will go into Thursday and I think most will leave after/Wednesday evening/night

He's talking about the Kim from the Padres. The other Kim coming over is a true free agent.

Lol when I looked last week, I had the same issue.

I miss when it used to go to Thursday.

Meetings end tomorrow right?

Back when MLBTR did their top 50 free agent predictions, 2 of the writers had us signing him and 2 others had the Sox signing Hyeseong Kim. Obviously their guesses are worth nothing but just felt like tossing that out there. I guess for discussion sake, I wouldn’t hate signing either.

lol true. I'm just good with a sunk cost swap of AB for TW if it means getting out a deal a year sooner.

Taijuan Walker has been pretty dependable (other than last year) overall in his career.

I don't think anyone is really "up in arms." Just that he doesn't really do anything. Blocks someone else who you should probably play every day to see what you have and probably not a guy that won't bring back much in a trade in July if he does good. Edit: hope I'm wrong on that last part and the perfect scenario happens where they actually do get something interesting.

Worth mentioning that Cashman was supposed to go on MLBN but canceled like 3 minutes before his segment. Probably related.

Come on not Red Sox! Edit: ideally Yankees

Looking at his defensive numbers, I don't think Tauchman will be in CF. His numbers across the OF look bad.

Will Venable joining MLBN after the commercial break.
