oztin 632 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 So they are out on Rendon now right? I know we aren't going after him but the less the gNats have the better Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unknøwn 13,138 Posted December 9, 2019 Author Share Posted December 9, 2019 30 minutes ago, Unknøwn said: Cole will probably top $250M now. The word on him was $245M. Probably not a coincidence that Strasburg gets that a couple of days after the report of Coles offer. No deferred money for Strasburg. He gets $35M a year. Cancel the deferred money comment. $80M is deferred apparently Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unknøwn 13,138 Posted December 9, 2019 Author Share Posted December 9, 2019 So the Strasburg deal is $165M for 7 years. Then he starts making $26.7M a year for 3 years immediately after the deal ends as the deferment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not to make light of his health situation, but Lerner is **** near 70 and is recovering from a cancer diagnosis that caused him to have half of a leg amputated. I really don't think he gives a **** at this point. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unknøwn 13,138 Posted December 9, 2019 Author Share Posted December 9, 2019 Strasburg came out perfect on this. He might be still looking for a 1 or 2 year deal at the end of this contract. On top of that hes still getting $80M from this deal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unknøwn 13,138 Posted December 10, 2019 Author Share Posted December 10, 2019 MLB is ending marijuana prohibition. In a new agreement with the players the league would remove marijuana from the list of banned substances for minor league players. Ken Rosenthal adds that MLB players are already not tested for weed.

Unknøwn 13,138 Posted December 10, 2019 Author Share Posted December 10, 2019 MLB is moving the draft to Omaha, Nebraska, the home of the College World Series. It will begin on June 10 and end on June 12. The CWS begins on June 11. MLB plans to have more prospects involved this way and may broadcast a round or two more than the normal first round. MLB is still seeking ways to increase interest in its draft. Falconsfan567 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I read that they wanted a better defensive SS than Segura which is what they were after. Read that they could move Segura to 3B if they didn't land a big time 3B. They've also got a hole at 2B because Cesar Hernandez is a free agent. They could easily plug Segura in at 2B, Didi at SS and then still be after a big time 3B.
