Squirmin' for Yermin

But would you trade our World Series for 10 playoff years? I sure as hell wouldn't and I would hope you wouldn't either.

They will gladly trade all that for that World Series.. Without Corbin they don't have one.

100% true.

I completely agree with your tiers here.

The sky may not be falling.. yet.

How do you feel?

I think you're getting into the Greg territory of annoyance.

I wonder which poster this is LOL

LOL... Since 2009 the White sox are -137 games below .500.... the Phillies are -22. They haven't been close. That's a difference of I believe 11.5 games a year.... Yeah, but no.

yup

Yeah, anyone predicting wheeler would be under 5 years for 100 million havent been watching the past 5 offseasons. It was clear he'd be at these amounts.

Good.. So this tells us we are at least at 5 years and 100 million. Not some low ball 5 years 85 million shit

I presonally would give the 6th year at 120. HOWEVER, I would understand the Sox passing on the 6th year. I wouldn't be mad about it, even though I'd have done it

Yeah, Bukaky is their Rutherford. High prospect who produced nothing. Martin looked bad in the majors. Beer though I love.

I want nothing to do with Bumgarner.

I don't think we are discussing 74 million dollar deals.. We are talking large, 100+ million.. If we refuse to take risks there we will never amount to anything,

Almost none.

Personally I do think Kopech will be a very very good pitcher.. But I would love to ease that pressure.

We are discussing passing at 5 years 100-110. No excuse

I don't think anyone here will be mad if we pass at those numbers.. He's proven to be a #2 pitcher. There's potential for more. Not seeing that is asinine

meh.. Sure Ryu is the better pitcher when healthy... Sadly he's never healthy. He has worse injury history than wheeler lol. I'll take the potential and better health of wheeler

The Dodgers also have a bajillion SP.

2.

This is pretty much where I stand

I would be fine passing at 6 years.. But almost anything in the 5 year range would be bitter if we don't beat the offer.
