  1. Which I also started, about three weeks ago. 😀 But thanks, I hadn't seen that there have been responses in the last couple days.
  2. Thanks. Do you know where a list is? I haven't been able to find one.
  3. I don't know the number of folks that need to be protected from Rule 5, but freeing up his roster spot would also be a benefit.
  4. There's probably a couple non-tender candidates in the mix -- Castillo, Tonkin, maybe Kirilloff. Also, Alcala already has a contract for $1.5M. If he's double-counted and already in your $93M, those four knock $6M off your total.
  5. Spotrac has him listed as Arb 1 (of four years) as a Super-Two player.
  6. Places I've seen list Correa at $37.333M this year, rather than $36M as is listed in the OP. But what's a little over a million between friends?
  7. There's another option that I haven't seen anyone mention. There's a one-year spike in Correa's salary. That it comes in year 3 of a six-year deal suggests that they had some creative conversation to create an uneven pay flow*. He also wants to win. How about going Bobby Bonilla on him and working with Mr. Boras to create a mutually beneficial deferred compensation package that gives Correa the same value in today's dollars in exchange for taking just $25M of that money this year? Or something of that nature. *Or maybe Correa's Adjustable Rate Mortgage has a balloon payment coming due in 2025? Okay, probably not.
  8. Yes. That figure is closer to what I was remembering than the $122M in the OP.
  9. Lewis, Castro and Topa should be labeled as "arbitration." Miranda and Varland should be listed as "team control." The dollar figures are probably about right for each of them, however.
  10. Actually, it was $5.25 million, further boosting your premise. 😀
  11. They have a team option for $4 million, but the Rays are responsible for the buyout.
  12. Just so we're clear... I'm rooting for wins by KC and Arizona.
  13. I’m holding out for a Ginsu knife.
  14. Mediocre is that Cleveland lost five times to the White Sox. That's more than the Twins, Royals and Detroit combined. Do they even deserve to be in the playoffs, let alone get a first-round bye, if they lose that many to the worst team in modern baseball history? 😀
  15. Thanks -- that was nice indeed.
  16. I'm watching their postgame show. Bip Roberts actually began the show in tears as they started to reflect.
  17. I have not. I'll look on YouTube, but do you have a link?
  18. Did any of y'all see coverage from the Oakland game on Wednesday? MLB Network had the game and the locals did some nice stuff in the pregame. MLB Network had some nice segments on the A's time in Oakland. I was a little disappointed that they didn't do more with the '72-'74 dynasty and did more with the Bash Brothers instead.
  19. For the record, the Baltimore line score of 23111 is the ZIP code for Mechanicsville, Va., about 150 miles from Camden Yards.* *Also for the record, the Twins' 00000 is non-existent as a ZIP code, which seems fitting as a descriptor for their offense.,
  20. Sorry, I've taken us drastically off the Game Thread. I won't make any more comments about next year's rotation.
  21. The trick is figuring out which flyer is going to turn out like Lorenzen and which will turn out like Archer. 😀
  22. Also didn't add that part, but I think the "aren't ready for the rigors of the show for an entire season" is also reason why they will prefer starting Matthews and Festa in St. Paul.
