So we should just gamble and put him on our books for 6-7 years while also giving away actual talent that his road splits are just an anomaly? Keep in mind... I'm not down on Arenado, but getting his contract on the team as is could be a huge problem. We would need to mitigate the risk quite a bit in any potential deal for it to be worth it.Originally Posted by MadduxFanII

As always, your sad attempt at sarcasm is very dumb. MadBum's splits did suck and he will struggle in AZ so I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to prove here. But sure keep being a blind homer fan of certain players instead of actually analyzing potential concerning stats.
That choice of win now and pay for it later is the hardest part of maintaining a winner.
I seriously doubt Bryant gets traded until the ruling comes in... I don't think teams want to give up 2 years worth of trade capital and I don't think the cubs are willing to take 1 year of trade capital so I don't think there will be any traction talks until that is all sorted out, no matter what we want as fans.
What about 1.5 years of trade capital?
I just don't think either side will want to compromise anything, so nope!
1.75... Final offer.
Fine, 1.25 it is.
sold!
Keuchel to the White Sox per Passan, 3 years/55.5 mil with a vesting option that can take it to 4/74, Boras is so good.

Dallas Keuchel to the White Sox 3 year / $55.5m deal
Way to much for DK
No ****. What he did for us, extended to a full season, was something like a 1.3 or 1.4 win player. Call it $11 million in value. when he was 31. They're paying for ages 32-34, and maybe 35. They need some serious rebound or this is going to be Chan Ho level bad,
yikes. that is a rough contract. how on earth did he get that much.

Glad it was a one and done with Keuchel for us....or .5 and done
Boras is the best agent.

Good for DK. But hard to see it ending well the Chi-Sox
If they simply wanted innings, they probably could’ve signed Julion for 3/$30 or so.

If I were a ballplayer, I would sign with him tbh.
Wonder if he’s ever considered dabbling in literary agency ...

Not that I didn’t like them, but doesn’t hurt my feelings that Julio and DK are gone.
On the other hand...I’m not entirely comfortable with what we have if no other moves are made. I would really like to see us get Ryu....
