Official 2022 Offseason Moves Thread

Perhaps AA wants to leave more money available midseason. It allowed us flexibility to get Joc, Soler, Duvall, and Rosario.

Darvish/Snell will be targets come deadline time.

Surely we have more than 15m to play with? Weren't we prepared to pay a nice chunk to a SP in addition to trying to get Freddie for around the same as we just gave Olson?

it’s DOB. He’s not reliable

Maybe Matthew Boyd take 5 millions with a club option for the following year.

Padres have made no secret about shedding payroll. Now if they are after FF and still without a DH maybe they lining up with AA for tomorrow's big move.

 

[nsacpi]

agreed.

Freddie had the whole lockout to play these games.

although I wonder, teams and players aren’t allowed to negotiate during lockout.

can executives still communicate? Very possible AA and Beane were discussing this scenario through the lockout as colleagues. Doesn’t require player communication.

I thought Beane was now a figurehead at the A's and devotes most of his time to consulting various soccer teams. That's his main passion these days.

If we have $15 millions left give me Rosario and bullpen RH.

those would be my druthers too

Oh, cool! Who is going to throw them?

meh.. I don't think it has anything to do with the fact it was FF.. I think agents have been getting bolder and bolder with holding out for the best deal as more and more guys get signed around them.. the Borass model I guess you could call it. In this case it will still work out for FF and he will get paid.. but I bet a dollar that his agent said we can play chicken with the Braves and see if we can get them to commit to the 6th year. worse comes to worse, I (the agent) would be prevy of the Braves going another route and we can come back to the negotiating table... problem, AA leaks nothing and decided he couldn't wait on the the game anymore and got Olson. I have a feeling there is egg dripping down someone's face at FF's agents office.

I know it wasn’t the intent. It’s still freaking hilarious.

Why hasn’t Soler re-signed yet?!

Letting Olson have his day.
Tomorrow is soler
Thursday is joc

Now the Falcons are in on Watson. I just want this to be over one way or another.

 

[BravesBlock]

Who is Freddie’s agent. Apparently Matt’s agent is Chipper Jones’ longtime friend and agent BB. Thought this was ironic.

I'd be shocked if falcons pull it off. Matt Ryan has around 45 million in dead cap for 2022

 

[UNCBlue012]

We signed Colin McHugh!

 

[Heyward]

Other fans think AA needs to be investigated. They think it's crazy no insider can out-scoop the team and the team just announces a press release lol.

Wow! Never even thought of him but I love it as a long reliever/spot starter… he was excellent last year and in 2019
