Maybe Seattle looking to move Woo for a bat which this guy now comes in playAt this point, Sasaki will only help if he can hit .275 and play an infield position on his off days.
True but gotta keep the back door channels open.No I don't see that being the case. That would be 4 years away.
275 hitter noCould be, but do you trust good ole Jerry to actually find a bat?
You could be right but not being the man means less of a pay check when he hits FA.No, I just think all the shit about small market teams was bullshit. He wants what everyone else wants. A championship without having to be the man.
That's spot on4 tool for Jerry means"
1- Cheap
2- Past his prime
3- Content
4- A pulse
I think the big market thing was just drumming up interest. 98% chance he ends up on the Dodgers with his WBC teammates.Not a big market city which takes out LA and SF. Seattle and SD would be an ideal fit with maybe Arizona in the mix.
In a way I’m glad they didn’t get Walker and Alonso. It’s not cause I don’t like them but give me Mitch Garver vibes (in Seattle) and if they signed Walker or Alonso and they turn to crap then we can kiss them ever raising payroll to WS contender levels.Shit thing is could have had Walker for half the price of Alonso

20mil to Walker is a bargain. I get giving 40+ to Alonso and craps out but 20mil a yr to a solid 1B for 3yrs is a steal. We're 2yrs into not raising payroll so we're well on our way for signing trash players to fall short of 54%In a way I’m glad they didn’t get Walker and Alonso.

All of these FA are bargains when you think about it. Contracts aren’t going to go down especially for guys they will need. Plus honestly there isn’t such a thing as too expensive when you have a drastic need. I still think 3B is much more important but overall offense is a desperate need.20mil to Walker is a bargain.
