We back.. MLB Thread

I'm late with the opinions but no way Burnes shoulda won the NL Cy over Wheeler. That extra 46 innings (and 200 batters) Wheeler put it in has to count for something. That's a bullshyt vote.

AL Cy and MVP were no brainers. Feels like the NL MVP should have just been vacated this year. There wasn't really one guy ahead of the pack. Like 7-8 guys with similar seasons. Tatis and Acuna were the best players. Once Acuna went down, Tatis kept it going even though he missed a month. He still only had 11 fewer games played than Harper.

I think Tatis shoulda got it out of everybody.

Agreed but look at Trout. Same caliber and now he's been left behind by Vlad Jr, Acuna, etc. Same thing could happen.

So how about The Nats?They did a Good thing in letting Bryce walk after his Mega Deal,should the same be for Soto?

Give Soto 500 million. Just buy out his remaining arbitration years and expend him 10 years. He just turned 23. He’s worth it.

Franco could easily end up being a $300M/10-Year player so the deal seems worth the chance. That's less than $19M per and there could be a floor installed for the new CBA...

A very Braves (Acuna/Albies) type deal to me... Rays are smart.

Soto is getting a 50 million a year deal if I can help it.

This is different than Harper since he is younger and a better player.

i mean Detroit or the NYY are gonna pay probably upwards of $300-$350M.. more money and less years for Correa an older player.. The Franco deal could be a steal for the Rays

 

[Trust Me]

Ooofffff....eager to see the details of how the contract is broken out and its options.

I’d be willing to bet it’s backloaded as hell, and they’ll trade him after year 3 or 4.

 

[mastermind]

Cheap ass Rays actually spending money to keep a player instead of trading them.

They did the same for Lowe

They did it for Longoria a long time ago too

 

[Brozay]

Damn Wander got paid

White Sox got Robert to lock in on 6 years .. 50 mil somehow

I think those days are over for these surefire stars

Sources: Major deal for Rays young star Franco

Franco wasn't set to become arbitration eligible until 2024 and couldn't become a free agent until 2027, but that was under the current collective bargaining agreement, which expires on Dec. 1.

Foreshadowing?

he’s gonna end up making more than both those guys put together.
