Maybe Texas takes him back to split DH with Cuz.So Cruz has gone for looking for nothing less than 4/75 to maybe begging someone to take him on 1/15 or less

Ratting out a kid who only wanted proper representation is pretty low. MLB seems to be fairly content with the current system I doubt they want the NCAA sticking their nose into the process.I want to see the other side of this story, but just how pathetic is the current Phillies management? "Ratting" on draft picks that don't sign with you?![]()

Should be a decent substitute for DempsterCapuano to the Red Sox
for probably half the money?Should be a decent substitute for DempsterCapuano to the Red Sox
Way less than half the money, details not out yet but it is a minor league deal with an invite to campfor probably half the money?Should be a decent substitute forCapuano to the Red Sox
Dempster
Dare I say an upgrade.Should be a decent substitute for DempsterCapuano to the Red Sox
It's February 20thhow the hell does capuano only get a minor league deal? Yea, he has injury concerns but he is a lefty and at worst league average pitcher
Not sure he is an upgrade but probably better suited forced the pen than Dempster. Dempster retiring was a major gift for the Red Sox though and now he is effectively replaced at a fraction of the price.Dare I say an upgrade.Should be a decent substitute for DempsterCapuano to the Red Sox
OK and?It's February 20thhow the hell does capuano only get a minor league deal? Yea, he has injury concerns but he is a lefty and at worst league average pitcher
There wasn't any market for a 35 year old pitcher coming off a poor year. The later it gets teams are more reluctant to open a spot on the 40 man roster for a major league free agent. Cap was running out of time to get into a camp. He and his agent figured that with Dempster's retirement, this was his best shot.OK and?It's February 20thhow the hell does capuano only get a minor league deal?

Wow, pretty aggressive there.Braves signed Andrelton Simmons to a seven-year, $58 million contract extension.
They were all waiting for Paul Maholm to establish the market rate for mediocre crafty leftieswell yes I understand why he signed it. was questioning what the hell the other 29 GMs were doing all winter that it came to him signing a minor league deal
I'm with Moops on this. While Homer Bailey is collecting 100mil, I'm taking my chances that spending a combined 3 mil on Capuano and Maholm nets me a solid No. 4 starter.They were all waiting for Paul Maholm to establish the market rate for mediocre crafty leftieswell yes I understand why he signed it. was questioning what the hell the other 29 GMs were doing all winter that it came to him signing a minor league deal
I don't think it makes much sense for the Reds. I think its probably what he could have gotten on the open market right now, but he was still under team control this year. Of course, he's also only 27, so I'm not surprised he was able to command more money than some of the FA pitchers this offseason.Am i the only one who thinks that bailey contract is insane? Surprised there wasnt more mention of it.
27. Has the pedigree. Seems to be coming into his own. Buster Olney was saying what marquee FA is going to want to go pitch in that park.Am i the only one who thinks that bailey contract is insane? Surprised there wasnt more mention of it.
I am liking the Anibal Sanchez contract more and more.Am i the only one who thinks that bailey contract is insane? Surprised there wasnt more mention of it.
Yes Cruz rejecting the QO. 3 guys remain that did so - Ervin Santana, Kendrys Morales, Stephen Drew. Spots probably open up as injuries mount in spring training, but its hard to find a landing place for any of them right now.he rejected the qualifying offer right?
Rejected a 1 year 14.1 million dollar deal. As did Morales and Drew. Lots of $$$ left on the tables.he rejected the qualifying offer right?
Rumor was he rejected 5/75 from the Mariners.Rejected a 1 year 14.1 million dollar deal. As did Morales and Drew. Lots of $$$ left on the tables.he rejected the qualifying offer right?
Why would anyone need to sign Drew for that much?the moops said:I think drew is gonna sign somewhere for like 3/33 or so.
but I see morales signing a similar deal as Cruz just got
Watch yo back Mike Morse!!!!!!Giants sign Tyler Colvin and invite him to spring training. He'll get $1M if he makes the big club.
I will be amazed if Drew gets a 2 year deal , I can't see anyone giving him 3. The loss of a draft pick seems to have killed any market for him. I really only see the Yankees and Red Sox as landing spots. I would hate to see the Sox sign him for anything more than 1 year at 5-6M.the moops said:I think drew is gonna sign somewhere for like 3/33 or so.
but I see morales signing a similar deal as Cruz
just got
Back to the RedSox at about the same price as last year?Why would anyone need to sign Drew for that much?the moops said:I think drew is gonna sign somewhere for like 3/33 or so.
but I see morales signing a similar deal as Cruz just got
Three players taking up almost 100 million in payroll. Wow.Angels discussing 6/150 extension for Trout.
https://sports.yahoo.com/news/source--angels--mike-trout-talking-monster-extension-184204188.html
Apparently some agents think it's a bargain.shadyridr said:Trout is worth it but that's crazy for a a 3rd yr player
Think 15,20 and 25 are the ballpark figures.Has anyone seen arb. projections for Trout?
Because the closer he gets to the end of arbitration, the more likely he just decides to test free agency at the age of 26. If Trout gets even to say the last two years than there is no reason for him to really take an extension since he will get 20+ in arbitration anyways. Additionally prices are just going to continue to rise so you may be looking at a 26 year old Trout commanding 40-45M a year in FA and the Angels will probably not be able to outbid the Yankees or Dodgers.I guess I just dont understand the point of extending Trout now. Why not just take advantage of a few more low salary years and then give him a monster deal towards the end of his arbitration eligible period?
