    Sorry, I'm taking the under for 9 million being the new cost of a win based on this one deal. I don't doubt salary inflation, but I do doubt this deal as the new norm. The worst part of this deal is that it probably pushes the Indians closer to giving Ubaldo the qualifying offer, if they were on the fence before. I think Ubaldo gets the QO and still gets a 4/5 year deal for more than 15 per.

    It's not a matter of having to let him go. I don't see it as very likely we'll contend in 2014 and I'm not at all confident Shark is ever going to be more than he is right now. I'll take the very solid prospect package and the extra 15-20 mill he'll be getting in a few years to spend elsewhere. To not spend elsewhere If that ends up the case, Ricketts will need bodyguards at games.

    These type of FA prices will make him more valuable thru trade anyway.

    2/35 with a full NTC for Lincecum. Prices are about to get insane, fellas....

    Almora 1-3 with an RBI, Bryant 2-3 with an RBI.

    I really want both sides re-done somehow or just give it all to CSN. But I can't see this bubble lasting until 2019. Assuming it costs us some to renogiate early, it still seems better than waiting.

    Bostic was a -2.7
  12. davell
    At the end of next year or going into it? Oh, at the end of next. Figure he'd be on most top 150-200 currently.

    I'm less than impressed, to put it nicely.

    4 pitch walk, K, 4 pitch walk, Double so far today for Bryant.

    Awkward as hell PC today for them. Mattingly's option vested, Colletti said he's done a good job and Mattingly then basically said he may look around. Guess he wants more than a one year commitment.
  16. davell
    I think he's very likely to be a top 100 guy next year. I didn't put him on mainly because, as you said, I kind of feel he's already broken out.

    Briggs situation is steadily deteriorating. He's gone from out 4-6 weeks to out at least 6 weeks in 25 minutes.
  18. davell
    Cutler not out for year?!?! Yeah, no [expletive]. Packers, Lions, Ravens, and Rams....2-2 possible, or is the Briggs loss too much to overcome? Edit- if he is out longer, it doesn't matter. But still a shred of hope, I guess.

    When I saw it was Telander, I got mad before reading a single sentence. But honestly, he just wrote a fairly normal assessment. Dogs ass, sunshine, all that stuff, I guess.
  20. davell
    Can't we just somehow blame that big bald prick for this? This is our karma for not re-signing him!(mentioned by every meatball on Chicago radio today, is my guess)

    http://msn.foxsports.com/lacesout/vontae-davis-peyton-manning-tom-brady/ Vontae Davis. Not a great interview, if you're him.
  22. davell
    Well, I'm interested to see how Greene does at least.

    Hello 6 win season!

    Jesse Sanchez says Dodgers agreed to 4/28 deal with Alexander Guerrero, escalators could take it to 32.
