    I'm happy to extent Dansby at the going rate for a 2 WAR player once he's put up a couple 3 WAR seasons.

    Why would he sign for 2 WAR coming off the heels of a 3WAR season in his age 25 season?

    Acuña and Swanson are not in the same situation financially. Swanson can bet on himself being closer to arb1 already and getting big draft money. That said, We can probably extend him for around 2 war if we garauntee him up to his 30’s. But using Acuña as an example was not good.

    Somebody gave up on Swanson after the first two games this season in my ESPN fantasy keeper league, I couldn’t decide how much to bid on him in Free Agency so I went $10 to be sure I got him. Inflation is $5 each year for keepers, he could still be a steal and I could afford to keep him for five or six more years after this season.

    I hope Scheff can give the exit velocity on his hits.
    Anyone can go to baseball savant and look up the exit velocity on all batted balls.

    The ball JD hit to 3b today looked like it was smoked. I’ll be checking it for sure tomorrow.

    The ball he hit on the double looked like it was shot out of a cannon.

    He also got out in front on one ball and still almost hit it out. The dude has a tremendous amount of force in that bat. He's gonna be just fine.

    And as expected it was the hardest hit ball of the game at 110 MPH.

    What would be more impressive, 3 straight WS titles, or 14 straight division titles?

    Let's see where he finishes the year before we talk about extension. I'd only be willing to guarantee up til his age 30 season. Unless he shows to be a legit 4-5 fWAR player this year (unlikely) I'd rather just go year to year.

    If he's a 4-5fWAR player, he won't be signing a friendly extension.

    A 2 to 3 win player For a mid market team is just fine. A 2 to 3 when player on the team friendly contract for a mid market team is smart. A 2 to 3 when player on the team friendly deal with the potential to be 845 when player on any given year is brilliant. If we can Lock up Dansby on a deal through his 30s valuing him at two wins then it needs to be done
