Save the prospects for a deadline move. Now that JV won’t re-sign I’m sure Crane will look to stay under the tax this year. Cot’s shows ~41M in...
Not a lot of great FA options left to spend that money on that would significantly upgrade the team. Lee is 3rd catcher this year behind...
It’s a long season; players get hurt. There will be plenty of opportunities for Lee, Diaz, and Leon to get extended runs even if you sign a...
With the Abreu signing fixing the biggest hole in the team last year, I’m okay being patient with JV and LF/DH/backup C signings.
I think I’d prefer Vazquez for probably half the AAV or less, fewer years, and no draft pick or international bonus pool hit. Already know how he...
Only the first four please. Otherwise just stick with Alvarez and the young guys.

2 yrs 83M…make him highest paid all time :) to get out of the 3rd year
Same thought here. Fine with it if it doesn’t prevent money being spent elsewhere.

Yes, but it depends which 1st rounders. We want to offload Wall anyway. Are 3-4 mid-late first round picks really not worth the risk for a #1...
if Biden is serious about this infrastructure bill Pete is right where he needs to be both for messaging and for his future. infrastructure...
Also most infrastructure jobs can’t be offshored. Even if you’re able to prefabricate some items you still have to transport and install on location.
No I meant 2021 since the checks will go out this year. I think they should have done the same last year too but that has passed. Just send...
agree but I think means testing should be done when people file their 2021 taxes; not based on 2019 returns
Easy...send the $2000 to everyone then take it back on 2021 taxes for income over some amount (75k?). So basically a tax free loan to people that...
