Right. So when he doesn’t sign anyone that takes the pick away, he can just say a deal that made sense never materialized. That pick isn’t going anywhere.

I agree... Just don't see them giving that pool money away for any of the FA out there and I also don't see them giving out the contracts that those FA's are going to command.
 
A reporter with KTLA (Los Angeles) who is at the Winter Meetings says the Dodgers are in preliminary talks with the Tigers about a mega deal for Skubal. Obviously, nothing immenent, but the momentum is very real.
 
Padres reportedly shopping Pivetta and Cronenworth. Pivetta is owed 19 million this year and has an opt out after 26. Cronenworth is signed for 5 years at 11 million per. Padres reportedly needed to shed payroll. Cronenworth is a decent position versatile lefty bat but his contract is way too long for his age. He has played some SS so maybe he could get some at bats there. Otherwise he can get at bats at DH and backup Albies who gets hurt a lot. Padres arent firesaling and we know they liked Murphy. That would help us absorb the 30 million Pivetta/CW make. Maybe we could expand it to include Reliever Jason Adams who is great but in his mid 30s and has only 1 year left. Would fill most of our biggest holes and probably still leave room to add more.

Yeah I would be shocked if the Dodgers dont get him. They have some damn good prospects the Tigers would be crazy to pass on. For the Dodgers there is no time that matters but now. A reckoning will come one day because of that but who cares if you win 3+ WS in a row. And they got the money to sign him before he hits FA 400 million is nothing to them.
