Around Baseball Offseason Edition - Derek Jeter will retire at seasons end

[Heyward]

O'Flaherty's market has been quiet. Maybe that is our move.

Nats interested in signing him, that would suck.

Furcal signs with Marlins.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Another ex-Brave goes to Miami. Rafael Furcal signs a one year deal with the Marlins.

Wilson gets 10 million to be a set up guy in LA. Holy shat. 9 million option for another year. Wowza

 

[CyYoung31]

mccann picked #34 because of EOF...... courting him to the yanks maybe?

[Hawk]

For thirteen regular season innings and a good postseason.

Yup.

Why would anyone in their right mind offer 10 years to a 31 YO player? There is no way that works out for any team.

Why would you want to piss off your highest bidder and only competition to date?

Because being that ugly and still managing to be married to Beyoncé would make anyone that arrogant.

nice work.

Wow. It's a done deal. 10 years, 240 million for Cano to Seattle.

Looks like you underestimated Hova ... again.

Unbelievably stupid. He'll put a few more butts in the seats. That's about it.

Agreed. The Yankees dodged a major bullet here it seems.

The Yankees can do what they want, so it wouldn't really matter for them. For nearly every other team, it's an incredibly dumb move. For a team like the Mariners, it's bat-**** insane.

The conventional wisdom is you can't concentrate too much of your payroll in one or two players. With Cano and Felix, the Mariners will definitely be testing that proposition.

This is hilarious, they signed McCann and Ellsbury and let their best player walk!!!

I just think about the ways they can reappropriate that money ... especially if A-Rod is also going to be off the books.
