I actually like that idea. Almost similar to the Mets paying Bobby Bonilla forever. Lol. It’s definitely something to consider.

Good on Jeff. Like reading that.

We are basically agreeing. I don’t think it makes sense to extend now for Atlanta. Not sure it would for him after 2020 if he plays well. But if he does and is then interested then it doesn’t hurt to at least have dialogue at that point.

I agree but just do not feel offering guaranteed money before then doesn’t make sense either. And the deal would have to make sense in the first place.

I wouldn’t extend him at this time as he is still unpredictable. Maybe if he pitches well, offer an extension after 2020 if he is willing to talk.

I’m in the same boat. I’m so frustrated with Liberty Media. Hate what they are doing with the Braves. Hate what they are doing with Formula 1.

I’m starting a new dynasty league if anyone is interested. If you aren’t familiar with a dynasty league, it is basically one where you retain your players for as many seasons as you want once you obtain them. Head to head, weekly matchups. Free to play. I’m using the Fantrax site to run it...

Plus then it’s another “concession” the owners can make during negotiations.

Casey Stern said that on Inside Pitch several times about the Braves in the last week.

Makes sense. I’m actually looking forward to seeing how things progress with these and the possible increase in roster size to 26 in 2020. Also, mentioned was a max of 28 in September.

I wasn’t arguing against the DH. In regard to the increased strategy, I was referring to the proposed three batter minimum rule for all pitchers in the game.

Listening to MLB network on Sirius most of the hosts on there yesterday feel like it’s more likely in 2020 than this year. The felt like owners would need a full year and off season to structure their teams.

Plus if the three batter minimum rule gets implemented then strategy would be increased overall. I was a long opponent of the DH in the NL but I’ve come around. I still hate the no pitch intentional walk. Lol

In case anyone wants to read the full article it’s on The Athletic. Solid read.

I know it will absolutely never happen but man oh man do I wish we had pro/rel in US sports. I cannot stand watching teams intentionally lose.

So frustrated waiting for news. I hate how impatient I am. 😂

Idk, I have lived in Louisville, Bloomington, In, Cincinnati, Portland, Spokane, and Oxford, MS. I can say without question MS was the most prejudiced place I have lived.

Forgot Machado.

This thread.... bickering on here is out of control. Idk why putting people down is so allowed on this site. From both sides.

We won’t have a reason to add at the deadline if that’s the case imo.
