If he doesn't end up with them now, then this was a savage troll. Although, since it's the Muts, I'll allow it. Bauer is savage! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishFan95 Posted February 5, 2021 Author Share Posted February 5, 2021 I'm honestly kin of disappointed. I was hoping that he would be the anchor that would way the Mets down for a few year. Well, at least I won't have to eat crow if he turns out to be the real thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 He got 3 years, $102M, with opt outs after years 1 and 2. Get this for the salary breakdown: Year 1 - $40M Year 2 - $45M Year 3 - $17M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverBullet Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 The comments roasting Bob are so great. But what bugs me most about him is that he doesn't ever seem to care that he's always wrong and making stupid tweets. Really bad look.

FishFan95 Posted February 5, 2021 Author Share Posted February 5, 2021 You know how for hitters we have the Mendoza line? There should be a journalist requirement called the Nightengale line based on his rate of being correct on breaking stories. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishFan95 Posted February 5, 2021 Author Share Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) Honestly, as someone named Robert, Nightengale is sort of a disgrace to the name. Edited February 5, 2021 by FishFan95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valid Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Over $40 million a year those first two seasons for a guy who has only had two sub-4.00 ERA seasons throughout his entire nine-year career, one of which was a shortened campaign in which Bauer made 11 starts. Knock yourselves out, LA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he doesn't care and takes no pride in his "work". Its awful. It's what makes his mistakes even worse. Jon Heyman ain't below "The Nightengale Line" (copyright @FishFan95) but he pulled a Nightengale the other day with this gem: Yet another example of how bad this type of journalism has gotten.

rmc523 Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 yup, "journalism" these days is who can get it out first with the biggest/most shocking headline so they can get clicks and therefore ad money. Not about being right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverBullet Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Oh geez I just saw how Bauer announced his signing... I can't stand this guy. He's so full of himself the toilets are jealous. What an egomaniac. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard it somewhere years ago and it stuck with me but I can't remember from where. But the original version has a more explicit word in there that I left out... basically the toilets are jealous because Bauer is more full of something specific than they usually are.
