Per year that could be more than the Pirates and Orioles payrolls combined.

 

[thedddd]

And if you look at the EOY 2021 26-man payrolls that contract is essentially the same as the Pirates, Orioles and Marlins payrolls combined.

Need an infield bat now.

Rangers going all in. This is Corey, obviously.

I think the Jays maybe should've just kept Ray for literally the same amount they gave Gausman lol

Fuck. Really wanted the Jays in on him.

What is sad seeing all these deals. You have to go back 21 years to get the largest contract the Pirates ever given out. It was a 6 yr 60 million dollar deal to Jason Kendall.

And FA signings this still holds true.

I read earlier the Marlins have a deal in place for Stallings pending a physical.

Lovely. The one position they needed good defense like him they just let walk away.

Seriously I thought the Yankees were going to overpay for him.

NOTE: Walk away might be an overstatement but not sure the prospects in return are great.
Now with NO major league catchers on your roster what next? Guess they are taking the Buffalo Sabres approach to goaltending. Sign whatever shit sticks to the wall at the end of FA?

Yep just saw this:

Marlins Acquire Jacob Stallings From Pirates

The Marlins are close to a trade that would net them Pirates catcher Jacob Stallings. Read more at MLB Trade Rumors.

I guess the plan is to now rush Henry Davis to the majors

That has to be it. They have no catchers on their 40 man roster and outside of Davis they have zero talent at the position.

If they have no plans to compete over the next 2-3 years do they sell high on Reynolds? At this point why keep him around if the rest of the team will flat out suck around him.

Yep Reynolds is as good as gone I think

I figured I’d drop this here I guess.

My LSU fandom just came to a screeching halt. Fuck this motherfucker.

I think this was before the Ray signing.

Most likely that was an older post. I still think Scherzer will make more than the Pirates and O's and depending on if the Guardians go official rebuild them also.
