January 6, 20197 yr With Boras represents him you would never got the chance to extend and lock him before he becomes a FA. How are you so sure of that?
January 6, 20197 yr How are you so sure of that? Didn't he always insisted to let his clients earning the biggest contract in the FA market ? of course he wouldn't need to insist that if you willing to highly overpaid to his clients before that.
January 6, 20197 yr Feel like teams are behaving much like the fans, they just don't want to give in to the Marlins. I honestly feel it's comparable to looking for a suit for work at Saks or Bloomingdales and then you find the perfect Hugo Boss suit at Marshalls that's priced cheaper than what you saw at the other places, but since it's Marshall's you still refuse to pay for it because you want it even cheaper. Stupid analogy but didn't know how else to explain it. Also did you see what the Brewers just got for Keon Broxton from the Mets? The GM for the Brewers out here fleecing people in these trades, amazing...
January 6, 20197 yr The GM for the Brewers out here fleecing people in these trades, amazing... I haven't been impressed with the agent's work in New York so far. Hiring an agent as GM could end up being as bad as making a GM the manager.
January 6, 20197 yr Hiring an agent as GM could end up being as bad as making a GM the manager. Who would be stupid enough to do that?
January 6, 20197 yr Who would be stupid enough to do that? The Marlins did it with Dan Jennings. Geez, how long you been a fan?
January 6, 20197 yr The Marlins did it with Dan Jennings. Geez, how long you been a fan? Dan Jennings wasn't our GM, he was a lefty reliever bro... geez how long you been a fan?
January 6, 20197 yr Jennings wasn't our GM, he was a lefty reliever bro... geez how long you been a fan? Ken Jennings was a contestant on Jeopardy! ... jeez, how long you been a fan?
January 6, 20197 yr Dan Jennings wasn't our GM, he was a lefty reliever bro... geez how long you been a fan? 1940.
January 7, 20197 yr Dan Jennings wasn't our GM, he was a lefty reliever bro... geez how long you been a fan? He's clearly not a REAL fan. I hear he has team apparel.
January 8, 20197 yr Nationals going to keep Bryce, Phillies going to sign Machado and Dodgers are going to freak out and decide to make a move on JT which will wake up Astros and then one of them will pay up as they duke it out for Realmuto.
January 8, 20197 yr Nationals going to keep Bryce, Phillies going to sign Machado and Dodgers are going to freak out and decide to make a move on JT which will wake up Astros and then one of them will pay up as they duke it out for Realmuto. You from the future?
January 8, 20197 yr You from the future? Yea, Jack is my Bro. I'm your uncle. Not going to be all cliche and say that I'm your father. Also, this! Roto: According to Craig Mish of SiriusXM, the Braves and Marlins "have talked again" about a J.T. Realmuto trade. Mish writes that the Braves "appear to be waiting [the] Marlins out" while adding that the Rays "remain possibility." There is also known to be some level of interest from the Dodgers, Padres, Astros, and Reds. Realmuto seems certain to be dealt before spring training gets underway, but it's hard to identify a frontrunner for his services at this point. Miami still wants a massive return for the 27-year-old catcher, who batted .277/.340/.484 with 21 home runs and 74 RBI over 125 games last season. He is under contractual control through 2020.
January 8, 20197 yr Yea, Jack is my Bro. I'm your uncle. Not going to be all cliche and say that I'm your father. And where does Jack Nicholson work into all this?
January 8, 20197 yr Mish writes that the Braves "appear to be waiting [the] Marlins out" Hopefully we're waiting other teams out that will get desperate at the deadline [and again that all hinges on Realmuto continuing his career trajectory].
January 9, 20197 yr Hopefully we're waiting other teams out that will get desperate at the deadline [and again that all hinges on Realmuto continuing his career trajectory]. Waiting till the deadline is a huge mistake. Aside from the fact that he is the best catcher in the game, part of the appeal and one of the reasons why we want so much for him is because he has two years of control left. Also, a bad first half or an injury and we're fucked. Has to happen before spring training. Settle on the best offer and pull the trigger
