I just have a feeling someone is going to steal him. I'm sure the Reds can move Phillips if they want.

Wow somehow Brandon Phillips managed to slug under 400 while driving in over 100rbis lol

Don't know if you guys have noticed, but TR sullivan is literally THE ONLY ONE who reports we haven't offered him a 7 year deal. Every other insider and report is saying we did. Now what I heard was it was likely a 6 year deal with an option for a 7th year. I don't know what that means. I consider that a 6 year contract, but I guess everyone is different.

The mans name is Texas Rangers Sullivan, I'm going with him.

I think they've been trying, but nobody is giving them a package they want or the Reds don't want to cover too much of Phillips' contract.

What? I'm almost certain its the other way around

 

[Broseidon]

Do you guys consider the original contract without options to be the length? Or do you consider team or player options part of the length?

I think the guaranteed years to be the length, but you need to add any buyout in the guaranteed dollars

I would include a players option as part of the contract length, since it is under their control to take it or walk...

"According to a source, the Rangers have a seven-year offer on the table to free agent outfielder Shin-Soo Choo and he is giving it serious consideration."

Rangers have offer to Choo that?s getting serious consideration « Postcards From Elysian Fields

 

[Hambombs]

I actually found it funny when TR said that they were considering our offer and then few min later he said we aren't optimistic in getting choo lol

So what does that mean?! Link???

 

[terpsfball09]

Got a text that said "Before I go to bed, I think the initial reports of 130 are accurate or very close to our offer. Still pretty positive we landed him"

Pretty sure Evan grant does jd's bidding.

 

[terpsfball09]

It means that Choo has probably made a decision and they aren't expecting any last minute offers. Or at least thats my take on it

 

[Hambombs]

Got a text that said "Before I go to bed, I think the initial reports of 130 are accurate or very close to our offer. Still pretty positive we landed him"

Hopefully you're 3/3!!

 

[terpsfball09]

I responded to him "are you sure?" and he said "ya, boras likes the offer we have, which is saying a lot. He told us that choo wants to come here. Would be shocked if a mystery team came in at this point. Only teams I can imagine are the cubs and arizona."

K so if he's right about this every single one of you has to listen to an alter bridge song of my choice. I dont care if you like it. Just humor me.
