I feel like he’s a lock to go over 200mil. Maybe by a wide range. Nola had the familiarity with the Phillies that helped them avoid giving the most money. Yamamoto doesn’t have that and he’s got the Yankees and Red Sox interested.

Ohtani to Dodgers for an ungodly amount of money
ToolDRT replied to JD94's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Yeah, I think it’s a player by player thing. If he really has his heart set on the dodgers for instance, I’m sure the taxes won’t be a “dealbreaker”. If he’s completely open to any and all teams it might be on the list of very tiny things that go into making such a large decision. I’m sure there’s factors well ahead of it, but it might feature somewhere on the list. -

So many predictions seemed to have him going to the cards. So I guess this is a plus in that regard. Personally, I never wanted him all that bad. I think we can spend that money better.
-
That works. Was never really a fan of Nola

-
Yeah, that’s a good point. Do you think the money they made off their World Series run offsets that at all?
-
Yeah, I didn’t really think they’d do the level of deal necessary to get it done though. You just weren’t hearing about them at all either.
-
Yeah, the never quite know how that’s gonna go right? I recall people trying to pitch to Lebron James the bulls and Jordan and topping what he did in the 90s and I believe there was speculation that it was a negative in the bulls attempts. Wasn’t overly concerned about the Mariners anyway as I still think the dodgers and rangers are the main problems. But one team down haha

Same. Also, that’s the point of this time of year; take any remotely credible person and hold them to their word about Our favorite team 🤣 No, but it’s fun to post anything we find and speculate right now. I’m sure many of these people know nothing but they probably no more than us haha -
Think this is a piggyback tweet and never heard of this guy but that’s what November and December are for!

I’ve conditioned myself that we’re not getting Ohtani already. So if it does happen it’ll be a huge boost. My worry is (with the suggested interest he has in Atlanta and spending his career on LAA teams that won nothing) he’s going to want to enter a situation and team that is already clearly in the World Series discussion. Dodgers, braves, rangers. I think the cubs and giants are gonna come out swinging but I really have a gut feeling one of those above organizations gets it done.

If they’re interested in Ohtani they better damn well know it’s gonna me a huge contract and be aggressive. None of this “we tried but he got 200 million more than we were comfortable with” crap.
-
But I hate him 🤣
-
Slow couple of days so thought I’d just post this. Ken basically sees the Rangers being a factor here.
-
Whoops. My bad. Saw opening night on espn and thought it meant their Sunday night game. Thank you!
-
Got it! Thank you.
-
Cubs are the first Sunday night game on espn.

What do I use? I want to be proficient in this before the meetings start 🤣
