Why do we give stanton $325 but cant afford anything else again? If they give $325 to him, they sure can give $325 to cueto and grienke combined. But nooooooo.

Vince man come on. If I have money to buy one fancy new car that doesn't mean I have money to buy two fancy new cars.

It hurts the team. Glad Stanton signed his deal but wish he would have said "look thanks for the money but sign me for 13 years and $150 mil and sign other players that will contribute". So we are stuck with Stanton ($325), hand and solano. Not Stanton ($150) grienke ($150) and cueto ($150). Btw I'm also mad at this stupid front office still with no moves made.

Oh dear God you just described the Arod signing with Tex scenario.

Expecting Stanton to turn down an extra 175 mil so Loria can be more cheap is where you messed up.

They should have upped it as they went....starting at $120 million...$135....$140 and left $150 as the max. "Listen Giancarlo sign for $150 while I go out and make this team a winner". Stanton would be a fool not to sign an offer like that but I wish he told Loria that if he is gonna get paid that much a winner must be made around him. But Koehler hand and other losers like Ramos and solano say "nope".

I still for the life of me cannot comprehend why you group Ramos in with those guys. Is it just a running joke? Or do you seriously believe the guy stinks?

 

 

This team should be tired of signing projects. Ive said this before. It NEVER works. The list is LONG, and pathetic. Sign the right players the first time. Stop signing or trading for has been Billy Kochs, Furcals...Latos...Benitez etc... Baseball is a game of adjustments. Once a player has been studied and he cant adjust his career is done. Cliff Lee will never be the same, nor will Lincecum. Ive followed baseball all too long! Players do get washed up people. A team that claims to be cash strapped shouldnt spend 3-5 million on a project when they can spent 10-12 and get sure thing quality. "Bargains" add up!!! Stop being cheap and sign the needed players... Idiots...

 

........

 

Vince. Take time to look over Stantons contract. It IS heavenly backloaded. So far back, the current owner would of sold by the time Stanton starts getting jack. This team is still cheap. They always do something with a catch. The eject button is always there. Think about it....

I see that but i wouldnt guarantee he sells. Its scary.

 

 

This team is doing nothing...it's the exact same business model it has always been.

 

Stop looking for fire where there is no smoke. Move along.

You're right, they will sign absolutely nobody between now and Opening Day

Loria will never sell, the team will never win another game again, might as well shut down the site.

and create another Mutts board? hell no

 

 

I think bringing Lee in on a 1 year deal is a smart move if the price isn't too high. Pitching depth is so weak and Lee has upside even if he doesn't pitch like a Cy Young winner.

 

Cliff Lee immediately becomes our "#2" if he is signed. Yikes. 

 

 

I saw on the twitter (as my dad would say) that the Sox-Dodgers are brewing up a trade for a White Sox prospect and Puig. Dodgers loading up on prospects?

 

 

Nevermind.. just saw that Jeff Passan says it doesn't involved Puig.
