Not sure $35 will get anybody these days.

Your mom seemed to oblige me for $35 just fine.

About seven visits from your mom

Trump needs to consult Cy’s mom on how to keep inflation down because her daily costs have not gone up in several decades. They’re just as resilient as they were before even the Carter admin.

Unlike yours who only knows how to keep inflation up.

I feel like we should be pretty satisfied if the worst player in the opening day lineup is Dubs at SS making $6M.

Of course, as the position players currently stand AA could add Tromp to the roster, stick Baldwin at DH, and pretty much accomplish exactly that. I think we should be prepared for no other everyday position players to be acquired.

I would be pretty shocked if we don't add another good position player.

I think he will for sure. He saw how versatile the Blue Jays and Dodgers were and there's where Dubon fits in. He won't be the starting SS.

Me too. I still think Kim resigns for a 2-3 year deal for around 16 per. It'll heat up a lot at the WM.

I hope you’re right.

 

[UNCBlue012]

I hope you’re right.

I think this is the most logical approach to take as a fan. They SHOULD have the money and prosect capital to feel every need, but we will believe it when we see it. They've not shown the willingness to go out and fill the holes needed to create an elite roster in a few years now.

AA may have as little as $20M left to spend, and he still need a Bassitt-level SP.

 

[msstate7]

I hope you’re right.

Yeah me too. I'd prefer to stop beeching about AA this season

I personally think there's a near-zero chance he has less $30M, but I completely understand thinking otherwise.

 

[mfree80]

Glass is always half empty around here. Personally, I am more optimistic than that.

 

[Hudson2]

He wouldn't have spent 22 million on the 2 he did if he only had 20 million left. I'd guess he has closer to 35-40 left to spend.

 

[Hulavol]

I’m of the camp he has 30 to 50 ….
