Like everyone else, he’ll go where the money is. I never entertained this “pitcher wants to bat” notion that has going on since Sabathia was a blockbuster Free Agent.

All this. $25M per and it’s practically for nothing more than one homer in every 12 ABs. Miami could make a slight argument that his deal was to make him the face of the franchise for a decade but obviously going to a NY or Boston... that’s not necessary.

The PAC 12 is a (Trump voice) disaster.

The Yankees have power. Judge is a younger, better version of Stanton.

We’ve also seen a ton of big name players completely flop after changing teams

  Stanton is a double-edged sword. He's got 60-homer potential but can't play defense, has a history of lower body injuries, strikes out a lot, gets paid a lot, has a never-ending contract, and a full no trade clause.  Whichever team trades for him the offseason is married to him for at least...

Bellator is about to run an 8-man Grand Prix to determine new Heavyweight Champ. Fedor, Mir, Chael, Big Country, Rampage, and Bader, included.

  This is a good point. Ohtani costs money while Stanton costs money and a lot from the Farm in trade. Marlins are said to prefer St. Louis as trade partner because they like a lot of the Cards' better prospects.

I’ll gamble Ohtani is more Ichiro than he is Kei Igawa. And I like Stanton but let’s not forget his 40-60 homers comes with 160 strikeouts per year. He’s a subpar defender and will only slow down as he begins to approach dirty 30. I’ve said a couple times that he’d be great for a team like...

Ohtani for the Yanks, easy

We aren’t going to see him play 2-ways. Same with the few top draft picks from this past year. Hunter Greene finished low-A ball playing the infield but has concentrated on pitching since AFL began. McKay from Louisville has also concentrated on playing 1B.

These TNF games are boring AF

I’ve made this point in other threads. Any QB that doesn’t rely on mobility is vastly overrated coming into the draft. There’s dozens of current NFL QBs who ran pro style in college, won 4-6 games per year, and simply aren’t very good. I’d rather take a later round flyer on Lamar Jackson. I...

AP still can’t hold onto the ball. He’s also really, really running upright these days.

There’s a rumor the Cubs & Giants ate quietly discussing potential deal that would send Jason Heyward to the Bay for Samardija and Melancon. Very interesting.

Disagree completely. Tossing 20 touchdowns on a 4-win PAC 12 team isn’t all that impressive. He’ll go top 10 but only because of the lack of legit QB prospects. A team would be nuts to trade up for him.

...and to the surprise of no one, Bennett was claimed by the Patriots. Will be curious to see how they utilize him with Gronk. Bare in mind Dwayne Allen was brought in as the 2nd TE & has zero receptions on the year. Bennett still has a bum shoulder too.

NBC has announced next Thursday’s Steelers-Titans game will be entirely broadcasted using only 2 SkyCams.

   Dave was pretty quick to tell the media “No” when asked if the luxury tax threshold was a consideration. Again, I don’t think Henry brings in Dombrowski without knowing and agreeing to spend. True but he stands to make more playing OF. I foresee most AL teams reluctant to give him Scott Boras...

I believe the Dodgers will drive up the price on JD. BoSox might as well splurge on Stanton.
