Balta1701 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Technically that number is something like $8 million low as of now since there will also be a bunch of pre-arb guys who make near the league minimum. The only difference between his # and B-R's numbers then is James Shields's $2m buyout that B-R counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: actually, I think his number counts those guys. Unless you mean guys who will come up and get sent down throughout the year.

Assuming 30m for Manny and 35-40 for Harper and we would still only be at 145-150 and still with flexibility. Let Abreu walk and offer a TOR a big deal next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Manny is with his pals for one year that's all. This whole thing is dragging on because the Sox are not forcing the issue hope it works in their favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBlackSox8 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 My brother is a diehard Cardinal fan, he laughed at anyone calling them a mystery team for Machado. There is no need for him at what he's asking...says the Cards wouldn't go beyond 6 years, and that he doesn't fit their plan. Harper would make more sense, but since they have Goldschmidt they're probably looking at filling other holes they need like the bullpen. If they didn't make the Goldy deal he said Machado would make more sense. He'd be extremely surprised if they're in on him, no where for him to play.

I would think we would get the best out of them as well. I can see Yonder having a good season if he can stay healthy. Yonder has hit in some tough home fields in his career. The G Rate might be just what he needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross Gload Fan Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 (edited) Even tho I doubt big time that there is a mystery team, but if I were the Mets, I'd let him play SS. Edited January 12, 2019 by Ross Gload Fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenSox Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 It looks to me Dan Clark got his info from a player - maybe Schoop. A professional reporter would know that information from a player's friend is not credible to be reported as fact. Clark is an amateur blogger who somehow scored a Twitter blue-check (even Levine, who is a professional reporter, such as he is, and with 250% more followers, doesn't have a blue check). My problem is that he got real obnoxious about it even when he was proven wrong (which was about a week ago when "early January" passed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
