Cavs in LA on New Year's Eve on the 2nd night of a West-Coast back to back. We will see just how mentally focused they are I guess. lol. I hope they don't chalk this one up.
They have won the last 7 games by no less than double digits. Hope there isnt a let up but this seems like it...
I think the O's issue is they see the major contracts coming for Henderson and Rutschman and want to keep the books clean for them. They both have a way to go before free agency but the contracts they demand will be staggering.
Their minor leagues is not as great as it used to be either...
Merry Mid-ness to the Heat, Warriors and Lakers!!! Who is the mid-dest of them all? It changes week to week- but right now ill go with the Lakers--- for losing the season series to the Pistons!
The thing is- I cannot say the Guardians have made bad moves. Every move they have made- the Gimenez trade, flipping Horowitz, Naylor, replacing with Santana---- it all makes sense and is probably all value add.
It just kind of stinks when you have guys you like- and they are constantly being...
It is just wild- Marcus Stroman is making over 18M this year. That shit would, if not cripple the Guards, seriously constrain them. Cheap-ass Guards are worried about Naylor making like 14M.
Not paying him that much? It appears he is making like 54M over the next 2 seasons and the Cubs are picking up 5M. It would surprise me if Walker or Alfonso get 25M a year.
If you mean- its not over 8 years like Fried- fair enough. He is the Yanks 4th highest paid player this year though.
he is 35 and in his 15th season.
I would not go passed 2 years to sign him but he will prob. insist on 3. Seems like a big risk if they would have cap room otherwise. If they would not have cap room otherwise and its just $- who cares I guess?
maybe-- it will be interesting
they have a lot of money tied up in Cole, Rodon and Fried- and Devin Williams will be a FA after this year. Judge and Stanton are still on the books.
It is the Yankees so you cannot rule it out- but putting up 400+ million would be a lot. Having said that-...
Yanks screwed the pooch when they ignored Harpher and Machado in past free agent classes.
With Soto gone they are so much less scary
Judge is 33. Cole 34. Stanton 35. Rodon is good every other season and has plenty of injury concerns in his past. Gil has had 2 tommy john surgeries...
Mobley with 41 points on 16 of 23 shooting.
He is not gonna score like that every night because of the options and depth- but its good to see he can do it.
Cavs with 10 guys with double digit minutes....lot of depth.....Strus has yet to play too. Go into Denver and beat the Nuggets by double-digits while Jokic has a 27-20-11
44 points from the Cleveland bench. 16 from the Nugget bench.
To Jimmy Butler's credit- I did think hed be worse than he is by now- in his 15th season at age 35--- but you can def. see wear on the tires at this point.
Overall with the Heat- I think the Rozier move made sense- but I just think with Butler, Bam, and that Robinson deal there just hasnt been...
