Before someone starts arguing the Blue Jays are a mid-market success story, they were the clear runner-ups for Ohtani with the Giants right there offering essentially the same deferred money deal he ultimately signed with LA.

Not sure the Toronto crowd taunting Ohtani with “we don’t need you…we don’t need you!!!” chants is the greatest strategy.

But it does add another layer of intrigue.

 

With Guerrero, Bichette and Varsho in the starting lineup, this is the first time in World Series history three sons of former players started for one teamh/t @EliasSports

$242 million in deferrals not being counted on this year's payroll alone is pretty insane.

More than doubles Milwaukee's entire payroll of $115 million.

Kerry Miller (B-R) then makes a prediction which will leave the rest of the fanbases around the league operating with a collective groan.

"Get familiar with the name. You're going to hear about Munetaka Murakami a lot this winter, and probably for the next decade," Miller added. "There's a good chance he'll immediately sign for north of $200 million. And probably with the Dodgers, much to the chagrin of most.

dumbest send I've ever seen. Vlad was up...

Maybe don't challenge Edman.

Teoscar, sure.

 

Once Hernandez cleanly fielded the ball along that wraparound corner like KC and Boston...no way to score.
