    Stuck In Evil Mode For 31 Days Prestigious

    It is my hope that one day, the MLB will adapt a salary cap with teeth and stuff like this doesn’t happen anymore. Being able to drop a BILLION dollars on star players is bullshit no matter how you slice it.

    I am all for a salary cap if it comes with a strict salary floor otherwise it just gives the 27 owners who wanna be cheap a better excuse and the Dodgers, Yankees, and Mets will still find a way around it
     
  4. Lmao what’s another 25 mil when you’ve already pushed to 300?

  5. 300 over 10 years was the reported Yankee offer. I'm comfortable with them not paying someone that's never thrown a pitch in the MLB more than they're paying Cole to be honest.

    I think what gets lost in the whole thing is dodgers are top 3 in player dev. They rolled out 4 rookie pitchers last year + Kershaw and still won 100 games.

    Not many teams could withstand homegrown talent leaving (seager , belli), injuries (lux, buehler, May, gonsolin, Urias dipshittery, and not signing people like scherzer, trae, JT.

    The craziest part is other teams offered the same deals. Not like dodgers just outbid everyone.
     
  7. But they still employ Dave Roberts as their coach, sooooo....
     
  8. That’ll be the great equalizer

  10. that's a reasonable take! it's not gonna stop the unreasonable masses (me) from dunking on the yankees when yamamoto has a 0.11 era and the yankees are 57-55 in late july tho

    FUCKIN SAVAGES IN THAT FUCKIN BOX Prestigious

    I have no prob with them not going over 10/300

    They'll definitely get shit if they don't direct that towards Soto next year though

    The gap between the floor and the ceiling for their 2 through 5 starters is insane. King is still a tough loss
