MLB.TV season package is available today free thru T-Mobile if you got it.

Got mine

Now, I'm glad that they acquired Sprint. I was just about to re-up my MLB package when I found out earlier today.

Next year the league is going to be loaded with top tier SS. I don’t blame him for wanting to get paid.

Correa, Lindor, Seager, Story and Baez.

I wouldn't give any of those guys major money. Seager and Story are the only two who have been consistent at the plate throughout their careers and Story plays at Coors. fukk all that premium position talk. $200-300 million contracts should only go to guys who really rake.

none of these 10 year 250 or more contacts ever work out.

Most of them get signed too late. I'm looking through the biggest contracts in history and there's a few that worked out:

1.) A-Rod's initial $252 million deal with Texas
2.) Manny's $160 million deal with Boston
3.) Miggy's first big contract with Detroit for $152 million
Then maybe Jeter and Posey as well though they're not in the same class as the other three. There's been some pitchers that have worked out. Actually, they've been safer bets than the positional players.

My agendas for this season:

1. In Ke'Bryan We Trust (For NL ROTY)
2. Soto for MVP
3. Mets >>>> Yankees
