  1. Jed needs to stop being a coward and pony up for a good player already. Dodgers are about to corner the entire Japanese market
  2. The two new York teams always seemed the biggest threat for Yamamoto. Unless the giants offer 300 mil
  3. Not mad at all at 700 mil, I love ohtani but can't justify that
  4. Saw that roki Sasaki asked to be posted but was likely to be denied. Interesting to follow since he's probably better than Yamamoto and younger. Might happen next year
  5. Wow that contract is crazy. I thought he'd end up there.
  6. Everyone's just trolling or just making horsefeathers up. Until Ohtani announces it I'm not believing horsefeathers
  7. What a roller coaster of emotions this has been
  8. With everything that's been said about Ohtani, with him wanting to win and being a guy devoted to his method and not liking to change it, I have doubts he'd join the Bluejays in the toughest division in baseball in a new country but im no insider.
  9. Doesn't ramirez have a ntc? I'd be ok moving any player for him but I feel like he doesn't ever want to leave Cleveland.
  10. Both are coming off down years but their overall body of work is impressive. But yeah a lot of red flags
  11. That would be epic, imagine getting all three. I'd be happy with that for an offseason
  12. 3 yr 45 mil. That's not bad, maybe Chapman won't get 150 mil
  13. Relieved tbh, he's solid but he was crap as a Cub and I thought Hoyer would overpay for him.
  14. Hopefully cubs make a run at him next free agency. Not much faith in hoyer tho
  15. That's a lot to give up, guess they did really want pitching. If the sticking point was Horton then I'm OK losing out here but if Jed balked because of the other arms they were asking for then I'd be pissed.
  16. And the Astros developed those players they drafted and signed through international free agency into superstars. They haven't had the need to go big in free agency.
  17. King and Thorpe is already an overpay and they are reportedly going to tack on more. Morel/Brown/Wesneski somewhat similar to that offer? Maybe Wicks instead of Wesneski
  18. So out on both ohtani and Yamamoto? Jed needs to get over his fear of big contracts, his weird fetish of trying to model after the rays is absurd because they never have won a world series. You need star power to win.
  19. Wonder why Jed is so angry about Bob saying they were out. Or was Bob mad at Jed
  20. A little confused by the Lowe love. Didn't he have a lower wrc+ last season, is older and more expensive when compared to morel? Just because he hits lefty?
  21. Better have come up and then shot down. Wow that would be stupid
  22. I wonder if Jed was trying to convince Ohtani to sign for a short term insane AAV.
  23. Hoskins makes a lot of sense. Cubs can sell him on the Bellinger success story and Mervis kind of sucks so big hole there.
  24. Why would the Cubs leak that they are waiting to pursue other players because they are waiting on an Ohtani to decision first give them any leverage? People don't like him on here but Chapman is a Jed kind of player. Can be had on a shorter term high AAV contract and he plays strong defense.
