This is my hope as well. The bonus amount should fall into JRs "comfortable" range for teenage players.

TJ could work.

Time to queue up some juicy conspiracy theories!

Man, you went from telling people to be patient to completely convinced he's not signing here in like 2 hours, based on conjecture. The Hot Stove roller coaster really got you on edge.

So apparently trying to give you an actual opinion was a poor choice. Noted.

The players don't have much choice other than to roll with him. I HIGHLY doubt that anyone here wants this team to implode after being a complete dumpster fire for more than a decade. You can want the team to succeed (WE ALL DO) and be dissatisfied with how other aspects of the club are run/operating.

I'd like to trade Nick Madrigal for Mike Trout + a prospect. Not sure why the Angels would want to do it, but the Sox would be taking on lots of salary, so LAA needs to sweeten the deal.

Leming tweets about the Bears, but that's all I know about him.

Ask the Oakland hitters if Gio was "coughing up chunks" during that playoff start, arguably the biggest game of his career, outside of those other no-hitters he threw. God forbid young players needing experience to learn and improve their skills.

Absolutely. Like some have thought, a viable and cheap backup C option shouldn't be off the table before the off-season concludes.

Just wait until he finds out about the hamburger with feelings

First mock has Sox selecting Ryan Cusick, RHP from Wake Forest

Did you see it through a reply? I think that's how they can sneak through.

And in Rand McNally, you wear hats on your feet and hamburgers eat people.

It would be a great counter to all of the Padres additions.

Yeah he said everything but his name when he was on with Bruce & Spiegs.

I could see why different posters are coming up with different totals then, makes a lot of sense.

According to Spotrac, they're just under 110M (link) at the moment, with the salary estimations on Gio & ReyLo.

Probably, right? Only other thing I could reasonably see them doing today is a Lopez pre-arb deal. I'd think they would try to work out a long term extension with Gio, and their M.O. for those seems to be during ST.
