Including $124 million for Jose Ramirez.

Why would they waste money on an MVP candidate & future Hall of Famer when that money could be spent on relievers instead??

Guardians' pen has to be in the $5-7.5 million range total.

So you trade him then…you don’t fucking non tender him. This is almost as bad as your AV for Mitch Keller take. 

He has no value. There would be no difference between trading him and non-tendering Giolito. 

AWFUL

Mr. Non-clutch at the plate.

That’s our All-Star.  What a headcase

Nice situational hitting

TA pulls a ground ball with RISP?  Where have I seen that before…

Has a team ever been less clutch?

Come get your fucking all star

I don't have anything against him. 

I just struggle to see how they're going to cut payroll other than salary dumping guys or non-tendering them.

Dang it Luery, why couldn't you have gotten a better single!?!?!?!

If that's the case, then maybe he's finally come into Jerry's price range for an extension ?

Washington Generals

Holy crap, and just as expected...

If that's the case, wave bye-bye to Eloy and/or Giolito. 

The difference is Eloy has two years of guaranteed money, not an arbitration year.

Jack be inconsistent?  Never!

I'd rather have LOLeury up with RISP, than our "All Star" Shortstop, pretty sad.

It’s crazy how worthless Anderson has been against the Twins and Indians this year.

They will still have $15 million under the tax give or take even if they bring Abreu back.

Sell the guys you can sell to make yourself better, fill a couple holes for next year in the process, change the entire coaching staff, and give it your best shot.

They needed to link Keuchel and or Lynn with Kimbrel to the Dodgers, the only team besides the Mets who doesn't give a rats ass about the salary tax. I wanted them to get Lux and perhaps a pitcher (proposed Gonsolin in October, but doubt the Dodgers would bite).

• Lynn $19.5M Age 36
• Grandal $18.3M Age 34
• Hendriks $14.3M Age 34
• Pollock $12.0M + Age 35
• Kelly $9.0M Age 35

$73M

Tell me why other teams would be interested in a pitcher whose peripherals are way down, has lost 0.7 mph on his heater and has an ERA over 5, going into his arb 3 year? 

An absolute best case scenario in a trade is something like Kimbrel for Pollock.

Anderson didn't see a pitch close to a strike but yet was never ahead in the count.

Guy need to get his personal shit together if he can't handle life. 

Former white Sox 3rd round pick Alex Call just made his big league debut

He crumbles under pressure sans 1 AB in Iowa.
