Yankee Michael Pineda #TheComeback will be official as he's named 5th starter

 

[Mexi]

Pineda lives eh

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

And now Miggy is filthy rich

 

[elcheato]

Sizemore named Red Sox starting center fielder lolwut

Good for him though.

I'm actually nervous to play this guy; haven't read a single negative sentence about his spring.  The numbers looks great, Grady says he feels great, no pressure, and scouts talking about him looking like he did before his injuries. 

 

[elcheato]

He's not suddenly less injury prone, and while he looks and feels good, his power isn't the same

 

[Mexi]

Good luck to him


Oh and hanley, mvp

 

[Elite]

Hanley's not even the MVP of his own team
 
Refer to my sig if you have any questions

 

[wilmyers]

Don't confuse biggest celebrity from best baseball player
 
Hanley > Puig

 

[Mexi]

BC, hes right

Hanley > Puig
Hes our best player next to Kershaw

Go look at his numbers last season
Shame he only played half a year. Still, 5 WAR in 86 games, slugged .638

 

[elcheato]

I was wrong about Hanley but he's nit keeping up last years pace

 

[Mexi]

Hes good

He hit a freaking bomb last night that nearly left dodger stadium. I know, whatever, i just wanted to say something

oh and hes a free agent

They tinkered with his swing anyways when he got here. Last year was insane, but he will still have a great year and the dodgers will have a good record = mvp convo

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

Trout got 6 yrs/144.5 mill.


These contracts are just crazy. Just for a niggah to play baseball...

 

[Pugz]

post threads.

 

[Teagz]

Trout settled. He could have waited and got 300M easily.

 

[elcheato]

Not with multiple arbitration years left. If you want an extension before all your arbitration is up, you have to sacrifice money.

 

[Mexi]

Only 3 free agent years
He'll be a free agent when hes 29

 

[snipezo]

Real nice deal for the angels. I wonder what kinda money he'll get when he hits free agency.

And teagz I think this a wise decision for Trout regardless. He's pretty much set for life. He doesn't have to worry about anything financially even if he suffers a career ending knee injury or some shit like that.

 

[Mexi]

And it lets him get two huge deals instead of one and a half

Hes still going to be under 30 for his next contract

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

Exciting player, should be good for a long, long time as long as no injuries arise. Still feel like it's a great deal for the Angels for such a special player, which will be his prime years as well..
