  1. The best time to sign a generational player is when they are available.
  2. The 60 win Rangers were built to win it all when they signed Seager and Semien? Were the 80 win Phillies ready when they signed Harper?
  3. Sources within the Cubs organization have told me that Ohtani will only play for a team that has an American player. Will also give high preference to teams with Latinos as well.
  4. Trade Morel and Brown for Mookie Betts. Then Ohtani won’t want to sign there. It kills 2 birds with one stone.
  5. https://twitter.com/BOSSportsGordo/status/1727411979491701214?s=20 Do your thing Seiya
  6. I believe it was the lowest rated World Series in the past decade so I would think losing the TV deal would hurt a bit more. It doesn't appear to be all about the money with Shohei though. If he chooses Texas it's probably because of the talent on their team.
  7. The Rangers were one of the teams impacted by the Sinclair TV rights thing. They might not have the finances. I think the Giants are a big threat. They almost landed Judge and Correa last year so they have money to spend.

  9. Ever since Twitter became X people that pay for the blue check mark get money based on interactions with their tweets. So a whole bunch of nobody's will claim to have sources and say a bunch of nothing just to farm engagement. This guy and this tweet is a prime example of a whole bunch of nothing. Having a blue checkmark does not make you credible. It means you are paying for it and driving up engagement on your tweets.
  10. The wording on these tweets is just a whole bunch of nothing. Every team interested in Ohtani is planning on making a massive offer.
  11. Yeah that sounds about right. I think he was right on one thing but wrong on a lot of others. Seems to be the type to throw horsefeathers at a wall and hoping something sticks.
  12. https://twitter.com/mikedeportes/status/1725232330451693840?s=20 Not sure how reliable but I recall he was right on a couple things last off-season.
  13. As legitimate as ABTY
  14. Can't wait for the press conference introducing Ohtani, Soto, Yamamoto, and Hader to the Cubs
  15. I think the Mets could have matched that. The Astros need a new manager, do the Dodgers really love Dave Roberts? The Cubs came out of nowhere, there are probably other suitors we don't know about. I think the Cubs had to make a pretty compelling sales pitch to get Counsel.
  16. I mean....Counsel turned down the Mets and David Stearns. I don't think Counsel chose to sign with the Cubs because Jed said he's standing pat with the current team.
  17. My expectations this off-season are now sky high
  18. https://x.com/Ken_Rosenthal/status/1721600737694929066?s=20
  19. I'll drive Morel to the airport if he can headline a Soto trade.
  20. That was surprisingly the real line. But if I lose money I'm taking full credit for fixing Taillon
  21. Ugh, hopefully they can manage splitting this after tomorrow’s loss
