Is it too late to start my baseball career at 50?

You have inspired me. I just sent my resignation letter to my boss, and will be heading to Arizona for ST this year.
Good luck. I look forward to you being the starting center fielder for the Oakland/Las Vegas A's in 2024.You have inspired me. I just sent my resignation letter to my boss, and will be heading to Arizona for ST this year.

Nope, it won't. I just have this sick feeling we'll sign Chap to 5/150 and regret the last half of the contract as he K's 200x/season.Lol right?
I’m hoping Montgomery, Imanaga, Bellinger and Hoskins. Trade or cut some of the dead weight.
Edit: I know this ^ won’t happen.
Sure, but how much lost revenue in the interim, and how many casual fans lost forever?Fans will come back when they see new blood that play interesting ball
at best. Dude cannot hit.![]()
Mets Sign Harrison Bader
TODAY: Bader's $10.5MM guarantee breaks down as a $1MM signing bonus and a $9.5MM salary in 2024, according to Jon …www.mlbtraderumors.com
1 year, but 10M?
I get upset about always “losing” the FAs, but that is a horrible contract. I am glad we didn’t get him. He is a glorified 4th OFer.
Dude, if you are going to play for the A's, expect the minimum. You'll get 20M once they trade you.If I start, I expect at least 20M per.
Greatest financial decision of my life!
There are 29 other clubs. I will let the young schlubs play for the As.Dude, if you are going to play for the A's, expect the minimum. You'll get 20M once they trade you.
Giants must have signed Lee in case you weren't available. Poor Lee doesn't stand a chance now.There are 29 other clubs. I will let the young schlubs play for the As.

At 50, his problem is going to be any pitched baseball (except maybe the floating knuckleball).Watch out for that breaking ball![]()

I don't want Belli, I don't want Chap.
Burnes and Imanaga and I'd be relatively happy
Meh. It isn’t like I will be coming in completely cold. I played one season of little league and numerous “seasons” of pick-up rec softball. Heck, I am pretty sure I even have my own bat somewhere in my garage.At 50, his problem is going to be any pitched baseball (except maybe the floating knuckleball).
Well then, the only question is, will you be willing to defer some of the 100M a year you will earn on the open market? Asking for a friend.Meh. It isn’t like I will be coming in completely cold.

I am not saying I am guaranteeing an all-star season, but…

Someone had to. It was getting boring, otherwise.Don’t be ridiculous. I am no Ohtani.
Sheesh, dude. Way to take this convo to the absurd…
