bmags Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Man I am so psyched. The silence this morning had me going nuts, and even though I hate this phrase, I really did feel like we already burned the boats and it was a disaster if we missed out.

Sleepy Harold Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Jesse Sanchez @JesseSanchezMLB 18s Source: Cuban OF prospect Luis Robert finalizing deal with #WhiteSox worth more than $25 million. Confirming @Ken_Rosenthal report. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sir Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Also, ignorant question, but how does this work? $25 mill is the bonus? And he'll just come up with six years of control like everyone else? Why was it different for Abreu? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beast Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 20, 2017 -> 12:49 PM) Did anyone ever clarify how to pronounce his name?

Why was it different for Abreu? 25m = 7 years of control Abreu, since he was older... 68m = 6 year deal with option to opt out That's my understanding at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
