Whoa. This is the most positive I've ever seen you about the youngsters.

Guy bought himself another 5 years.

Plus, you never have to worry about sitting out in the cold or rain delays. You can go to a game at the end of March or early April and it will be nice inside.

He'll probably end up on the IL.

Seeing progress from the kids this season would be a great start.

Agreed haha

All 3 but each one a varying level of blame.

Prove it. Put up or shut up.

For next year's free agent class, I kind of expect Rendon and Goldschmidt to extend before free agency. Possibly one of the starters too (probably Sale: already talked extension, his wife loves Boston as he said at the time of the trade that it's the only visiting city she went to, he's a winner there, etc).

I didn't get the game last year and definitely not this year. Not enough changes in sports games/lack of time for games in general makes it a no-brainer to avoid it this year. Tap Baseball on the phone for another year will have to do to get my fix in.

We need a deep Hawks playoff run.

Couple of those guys were definitely considered more than "solid" free agents. Lester and JDM for sure were better than solid.

I think a team like the Dodgers likes to stay somewhat below so they can make an add mid-season if they need to.

Probably have to move more than just Pederson because he would barely help since hes only at $5 mill. People, including myself, say that they need Hill but that guy always seems hurt himself so who knows.

Dammit I'm not ready to get hurt again. It's too soon.

Yeah which is odd because I'm pretty sure he has already hit 4th a couple of times.

Right. And if they had, you better believe Boras is leaking that out to the media. Unless, as someone below pointed out, they are the mystery team.

Chris Sale's arm finally fell off, eh? On a serious note, hope it's baseball related and not anything tragic (never know in this world),

Can you say, "grievance?"

And no one would disagree with you. But I sort of expect them to sign CarGo or Jones.

I did remember there being something about being on the 40-man. Like the date is slightly later than if a player was called up not on the 40-man (like Bryant).

I'm sure the MLBPA will have no issue with that.

The Sox can't possibly fuck this up twice in one off-season, right?....Right?......RIGHT!?

Yes their chances are great based on the remaining teams (Harper is the type of guy who wants a big market). It's just a matter of if they want to pay up or not. And this is the issue.

So if it's true that he has multiple $300+ million offers in hand, one being the Phillies and the Giants and the Dodgers looking more short-term, who would be the other team?
