Quin Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 8 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: I kind of hope the Dodgers win the next 10 World Series and kill off all interest in baseball. This superteam really s%*# sucks. The Dodgers experienced 2023 Lance Lynn and committed more than $1.2 billion (and prospects) to three players. The White Sox did that and decided to rebuild. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 I just have no confidence the Orioles and Sox get something done. They’ve been discussing Cease forever now, and they can’t agree on his value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 1 hour ago, Quin said: All 30 teams had a chance to win. The Dodgers won. It's not an asterisk like the Trash Can Astros. They're also consistently providing their fans with exciting baseball every season and going to the playoffs for a decade. You have to be delusional believe the Astros were the only team, or one of only a handful of teams blatantly "cheating" during that era, including the Dodgers, Red Cubs and others. Didn't even win a single playoff game last season, started Lance Lynn in an elimination game. Sign absolute scum like Trevor Bauer and Jose Urena, Exciting for TMZ perhaps. All this handwringing that the Dodgers are unbeatable is completely laughable. They have vastly overspent the market over the past decade and have sucked ass each and every legitimate season when it mattered most. Bottom line is my statement is accurate as usual. No Dodger fan experienced a World Series victory played at Dodgers Stadium since they were changing Ronald Reagan's diapers in the White House. You have to be over 40 to even remember that far back.

Orioles had one good year - why would they give up the farm for Cease when they are just as likely to flail back to crap status in that division. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if macsandz is right and we asked for Cowser, Norby and some presumably non Top 100 third piece, that's not an unreasonable ask in this pitching market. And if not, get BOS involved. If they are serious and willing to put Anthony + on the table, then Elias can go to hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to look that up, as couldn't conceive of Dodgers ever being all that excited about the 2023/Sox version of Urena. At one point he looked pretty decent with the Marlins.

Angels and Padres you can cross of that list. Pretty sure Braves' execs would consider it to be close to insane. “This may be close to an $800 million to $1 billion gain for the Dodgers over a decade,” the agent said, noting that if the team were to simply take the $680 million in deferrals on Ohtani and invest it — say, with an asset management firm like Guggenheim Partners, which is run by Dodgers owner Mark Walter — then the money could more than double in a decade’s time. “They may be able to make $1 billion extra,” the agent reiterated. MY NOTE: It would double in roughly 7 years at a 10% growth rate per year. https://www.latimes.com/sports/dodgers/story/2023-12-19/dodgers-shohei-ohtani-billion-dollar-revenue Edited December 22, 2023 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
