    Yeah, quite the coup for MLB Network. Wish Charter would pick up the HD feed. Any word on that, by chance?

    I see the Rangers signed RP Eddie Guardado, for a deal worth up to $3 million. Supposedly this could mean they won't be signing Sheets, at least according to earlier reports. Though I'm not sure how a reliever would block Sheets, unless the Rangers' finances are really that tight.

    Honestly, the Dodgers should start negotiating with Dunn or someone at this point. Make Boras really squirm. Frankly, sign Dunn for something like 4 years and $25 million. It would probably be a much better value.

    Boy, Tbadder is bringing the cynicism big time here. First you suggest that the Brewers should be contracted or at least turned into a AAA team, and now you say that the Brewers are destined to collapse very soon. If I didn't know better I'd say you were a Cubs fan, or worse, a Yankees fan. I believe Attanasio did say the team "turned a small profit" last season, with making the playoffs.

    Who would have thought Fielder would have been one of the first the Brewers came to terms with this winter, and Corey Hart would be the last?

    I'll never forget U2's performance, because I was still in college at the time and someone I was watching with in the dorm asked "Do you think he's high right now?", in reference to Bono, not realizing that Bono is probably one of the most clean cut rock stars you could probably find (at least according to his reputation).

    That wasn't Boras, it was another agent (can't remember his name off hand).

    Yeah, I'm planning on picking this one up the day it comes out. I've had '07 and '08 on PS2, and look forward to getting this on PS3, now that I have that system. Another cool feature I've read about is that if you have some kind of microphone, you can record your own voice and insert it into the stadium chants. Not sure how that will work exactly, but sounds interesting.

    I really can't see any team going higher than 3 yrs/60MM, which is basically what the Dodgers offered since their initial contract included a provision for a third year option. Oh, and I love how Boras is claiming "several teams have interest in Manny." I'd love to be a GM and ask him to send over the offer from any other club so I have a chance to match it.

    Actually I would guess all McDonald's pay money into an advertising co-op, so in some ways the Milwaukee McDonald's "gives" money to the Brookfield ones...granted, probably based on some sort of percentage formula. Yes, sports are entertainment. The players compete on the field, but ultimately the MLB teams are working together to make the most money for everyone. Yes, sometimes their interests conflict (like when the Brewers and Yankees were both bidding for Sabathia), but ultimately they're not really competing financially with each other. I don't know how you can say MLB is an "entity in name only," when they are basically run like a corporation. Just look at what Bud Selig made last year. Also, I don't know why you mentioned those three teams, as they are the Atlanta Braves, Baltimore Orioles and Los Angeles Dodgers. Relocation is completely different than contraction.

    You really can't compare MLB to regular industries. MLB teams are basically a franchise that is part of the same company. It's like if you own a McDonald's...your competition isn't supposed to be the other McDonald's across town, it's the other restaurants and dining options in the area. MLB or NBA teams aren't really competing with each other, they're competing with other sports and entertainment options.

    I agree the Brewers could get Peavy, I just don't think they have the initiative to get a deal done right now, for whatever reason.

    Maybe the Giants will swoop in and sign him for like 2 years and $40-45 million or something?

    I agree. I think Parra is a #3 at best. Really, Bush is the #2 at this point, as the rotation is currently constructed. Yes, I know Parra "hit his wall" when all the experts supposedly projected him to, but a 4.39 ERA and 1.54 WHIP don't scream #2, even if you figure he improves this year.
  21. Invader3K
    Your solution is contraction? That will never go over with either side. If you contract one team, that is 25 less MLB jobs, and the owners would never go for it, either. Just unrealistic.

    I know it's only a one year deal, but I just can't see Manny being worth 25 million for a season. Better hope he plays like he did for the Dodgers for a whole season, and doesn't revert to his Boston antics.

    Depends which Springsteen you're talking about. He has a pretty vast body of work at this point in his career.
