Must be awesome to pursue good OFs in free agency when you actually need some OFs.

The Giants ramped up their pursuit for star slugger Aaron Judge on Tuesday, reportedly offering the reigning American League MVP a deal in the neighborhood of $360 million, according to MLB Network insider Jon Heyman.

If they sign Judge too they should have some lefties on the market.

That’s $5M short of our largest contract in franchise history.  Meanwhile, this is like the 7th largest contract in the last five years for the Phillies.

World Series suck.

Anyway, compared to The team that faced the Astros they have strengthened the top of their order so they can move Schwarber down. They’ve replaced Syndergaard with Walker, better chance at health and a middle of the rotation arm. They lost Eflin though, and seems unlikely that either of their top 2 prospects can contribute much this year as most teams don’t rush guys up into the bullpen. So maybe 1 more reliever on tap for Philly?

Yet there are people who believe Grandal being the 54th highest paid player in baseball is a reason the Sox can't afford to do something or are better off not signing good players in free agency ?

The Castellanos contract looks terrible for them & will likely be a bad deal, but it's funny how big market teams can overcome a sunk cost if they're actually determined to win

That’s a lot of money. Mets should have issued that QO.

Is Sugar Plums the stage name of an exotic dancer?

Phillies, Giants, and Cubs doing s%*# while everyone else ( especially us ) is sitting around with their dicks in the mud.
