  1. Could you provide more context besides posting a link?
  2. "I think Yelich is overpaid" is an opinion. "Burnes is going to be traded" is an opinion. I guess you can call "Most important to MA seems to be to finish ahead of Counsell and the Cubs the year that CC spurned him," an opinion, but it's completely reasonable to ask what basis there is for that opinion, just as someone might ask a poster to back up any other opinion they have.
  3. It seems like he's just not a fan of this world of NIL and transfer portal and wants to be done.
  4. Sure, but what are you basing that perception on? You have to be perceiving something, otherwise it's just a made up statement.
  5. What actual evidence do you have for this? But answer in the actual thread you started...
  6. Yes, that was the point the rhetorical question was making.
  7. Did I miss Arnold announcing that he was starting in CF and batting third?
  8. Never say never, but it's hard to imagine a scenario where it makes sense for the Brewers to pay a closer ~20M AAV.
  9. https://www.mlb.com/brewers/news/corbin-burnes-brewers-future “And then I just had year after year that have been good, [and] I think it got to the point of they know their situation and where they’re at and their market size, and instead of making a player angry for sending a bad or really small or short-term or low number of an extension, it’s just like, ‘Hey, [to] be upfront, we respect what you’ve done and we’re not going to come at you with something that we don’t feel is what you’re worth as far as the market goes.’ “We never really talked there. I think a couple of years ago, I was open to going and getting something done, but I think at this point, both sides know that we’re a year away from free agency, and we want to see what the market can bring.”
  10. They probably have some sort of catastrophic insurance, yes, but generally that's not something that's ever public knowledge, much less the terms. I don't imagine there's any scenario where his salary doesn't count, unless he retires and the rest of the contract becomes void.
  11. With a full NTC, Yelich is only as tradeable as he wants to be.
  12. Well, sort of, but I think it's more accurate to go year by year, not total financial outlay. He's far from the 2nd highest played for this year, which is what matters in constructing this year's roster. The fact that he'll make 80-140M over the life of the contract is not justification for him starting on OD.
  13. He declined a $10M option, I don't see how this would be for under that.
  14. With a full NTC, he's only getting traded if he wants to get traded.
  15. Agreed 100%. There's really no wrong answer though, this OF is going to be elite.
  16. At least 2 of the INTs were balls that should have been caught, maybe 3? I can't remember now.
  17. Carr retired, he was not fired.
  18. The issue is, as has been pointed out already, and you agreed with, we have no basis for saying that didn't happen. In fact, it's exceedingly likely they tried to come up with a 2 year deal and he elected not to take it.
  19. For all the vitriol directed toward Mark, he has never given the impression that he's that involved in the day to day operations. Hader wasn't his call. I doubt any of these other decisions were his call. That's the GM/PBO's job, and he's seemed pretty content to let them do that. If you're upset that he is not personally funding the Brewers payroll, that's not how baseball works, other than maybe Cohen. As long as we're in a world where every team gets to keep their TV revenue, smaller markets will continue to be at a huge disadvantage.
  20. Murphy has a 9 year old and 4 year old?? Clearly he's a 44 year old hiding in a 64 year old's body.
  21. Discussion can move over to the Murphy thread:
  22. In any case, it looks to be moot as Mattingly is now the "offensive coordinator" for the Blue Jays as well, whatever that means.
