  1. I believe if he officially retires he would forfeit his contract. He's not putting in any paperwork until that contract is officially over and paid.
  2. I may be speaking for others, but my thought is that no team will touch him this year. What he's accused of is a lot for a PR team to gloss over, but can be done (see Watson). The difference between him and Watson is that Bauer is already thought of as a difficult team member, doesn't seem to care about improving his image, and, most importantly, doesn't show even the slightest bit of remorse or even understanding of the issue. The man seems like a predator and teams are likely concerned that this is a pattern and there seems that it will be likely that something like this may happen again. I don't think any team will be willing to take on a person like that.
  3. My guess for the '24-'26 infield is similar, but I think I have a feeling they are going to push Lee into more of a 3B role and slide Miranda to 1B most of the time. Correa will man SS as long as he is able with Lewis at 2B. That's is everything goes right.
  4. Sorry man, Duensing is just the sweetener. He's not a straight up 1 for 1 kind of guy. ftfy: Pagan and Duensing for Alcantara.
  5. I am hoping this deal goes the full 10 years with Correa being a very productive team member. Welcome back Carlos!
  6. Agree. I'm thinking this makes it more likely that they try to trade Kepler for some pitching. I'm assuming the pones are ringing in Miami as soon as the contract is signed (if not before).
  7. I think the Giants and the Mets were concerned how the leg would hold up at the end of the deal, not as much when he's in his prime. The 6 years avoids that, and the vesting options give the team some security if his leg goes bad. If something happens, he likely won't reach the vesting options.
  8. I mean, come on. They couldn't even pay the dude $300M? (I was almost about to make this same post).
  9. The previous rumors indicated that the deal would not be contingent on a physical. But I'm with you, I'm excited now, but I won't be fully celebrating until his pen touches the paper.
  10. There's a guy on Reddit that is going to have to watch a few bad movies and eat some terrible stuff if this contract actually gets signed.
  11. I'd have to look up the rumors, but if memory serves me correctly, it was the Dodgers that were unwilling to part with De Leon, which is why the original trade never got done.
  12. No such thing as a bad minor league deal.
  13. Shreve was in the Arizona Fall League this year. Worked in relief. Played at A+ last year. AFL Stats:
  14. Looks like Minnesota's own Gus Varland (Brother of Twins starter Louie) is headed from the Dodgers minor legues to the Milwaukee Brewers.
  15. They are really prospects 1A and 1B. I don't think it matters where you put either one. So much potential for both.
  16. It's basically a softball field. They should be able to hit a few out.
  17. Well, now time to score some more runs.
  18. Well, there goes Varland's first MLB win.
  19. Now we just let the last few trade announcements trickle in. There are always a few. If this was all the Twins did though, I'm not mad about it.
  20. Cardinals just got Jordan Montgomery, so maybe they're out on Lopez too.
