This is not good


We have found a job for you on here. Every time the opposition has a rally, you must post “This is not good”. Do it for the rest of the year.

His last 150+ games his WAR is almost 8, so…. 🤷 

How much bigger of a market will there be for him over Vlad Jr who signed a $500 million contract when you’re talking about the difference between a 26 and 29 YO?

One is an OF'er and the other is a DH, Tucker has 20 extra points of wRC+ and is a far better runner too. The age here, is doing a lot of work for the contract, but one of them is clearly the better player.

I suspect more teams will be interested in Tucker because he's more versatile. I also suspect he will make less than Vlad on the back end, at least in terms of total dollars. Less years = less $$$$ overall.

Can we not let the lead off man on every inning

But if we did that, then we couldn't make weird double plays happen. Think of the entertainment factor, man.

Real good post and points JR....just wish we wouldn't have given up SO much for a guy that it's a long shot to re-sign. Bums me right out.
