Dodgers trade for Aroldis Chapman

I think this is real. Now, lucky for him, with the royals success even non-closers are getting paid 10 million per now if dominant. But this is certainly a risk.

 

I don't think there's a ton of evidence that teams are still paying free agent money for saves / NOT paying for holds.

 

Arbitration, now, is another story.

Reds might lose 110 games next year

QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 7, 2015 -> 10:43 AM)
yeah what a horrible manager getting them within 2 games of the world series. Closer than whiz Joe Maddon did.

Didn't say horrible, I say he didn't get the most out of them. And yeah, if you think Dusty is better than Maddon, I gotta say I disagree strongly.

They got rid of the best manager in the game and it's all been downhill ever since.

Any word yet on who the Dodgers gave up?

But he did. What was that team predicted to do before he got there?

Hey so...it seems this trade isnt done yet. Looks like the Dodgers may think it's been agreed upon but the Reds dont. Weird.

I have not lue but I'd bet the Dodgers are looking in a different direction for a closer.

 

I wonder if the Dodgers would have interest in Robertson.

Cowboys will have a closer next year

is any felony or gun related incidents.... i believe it is a felony. this has no recourse esp if the girlfriend wants to chg her mind. that is the law of the land.

 

now it might be said, he was cleaning his gun, but at the moment of the call or when the cop come in, the stpry tjat is told to the cops is the story that will stick.

First Reyes, then Puig and now Chapman. Who's next?
