Jack Parkman Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) 1 minute ago, Chicago White Sox said: Lester isn’t a free agent after this year and declining Quintana’s cheap option is perhaps the single dumbest proposition I have ever seen on this site. The fanbase despises Quintana because they gave up Eloy/Cease for him and he's not the same guy he was here. I'm surrounded by Cub fans and they want to run him out of town. They hate him.

I think the 10 year deal isn't going to happen, they'll get a 5 year deal with an opt out after 3 to guarantee they hit FA one more time. Wow, you’re now approaching Greg levels. You think these guys are going to pass on 10 year commitments why? Like you are completely losing it man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they're confident in their ability and they'll get $175M and cash in on another 7-8 year deal down the road. You don't hire Scott Boras if you're afraid to bet on yourself.

JFC, your ramblings make zero sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Quintana would get paid alot of money if he were a FA right now. The $10.5M option is going to be one of the easiest no brainer team options of the offseason next November.

Last year he was a 4.25. I had him on my fantasy team. I know. I also had him in 2017, and I know he was decent down the stretch for them. He's not the same guy.

Jack Parkman Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 (edited) Listen, I'd be really excited if they got either Harper or Machado, but I'm not counting on it. I don't think that it is realistic. I wish everyone was a lot more grounded. I'm done discussing this. Let's agree to disagree. I'll still post when there is news. I have an unpopular opinion and I can take the heat. You guys say that I'm a Negative Nancy, and I think most are unicorns farting rainbows. The truth is somewhere in between. If you guys want to silence my posts, ban me. Edited December 14, 2018 by Jack Parkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh boy so if that's the case let me bet Jack $1 and I get $40,000 if I win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintana had a 1.3 fWAR last year. https://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=11423&position=P For comparison sake, Lance Lynn had a 2.9 fWAR last year https://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=2520&position=P Lance Lynn got paid $10M AAV.

I don't find anything credible. Talk to me when the ink is dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if I did, there is no way in hell I'd bet it. I despise gambling unless I have nearly 100% odds of winning. That doesn't exist so I don't gamble.
