Not a bad deal for Pittsburgh. Wish he would have been traded to nym but not a bad deal for the pirates

I saw a post on reddit on some of these deferred contracts.
I had no clue the Orioles are living a nightmare with Chris Davis.
They're paying this fool well into 2037.
This year alone they're paying him $14M.

What blueprint did they copy

What blueprint did they copy

Promoting all their prospects collectively,trading vets for prospects then signing free agents to build a contender & not a single postseason series been won

They were really banking on Jimenez and Robert being studs and they just aren't, plus they can't stay healthy.

Robert was getting Cuban Mike Trout comparisons.

First Rays L at home comes from,
You guessed it,
The Astros
First shut out of the season for them as well

To be fair, they keep running into a fkn buzzsaw each first round in us or an AL East team

The cubs faced two 90 + win teams in the postseason including a cardinal’s team that went like 13-6 vs them in the regular season & beat both

I'll always put a lot more emphasis on hitting and pitching over defense. Last year they didn't have a single guy with 17 HRs. Kopech and Giolito have been roller coasters too.

I was comparing why they weren’t the cubs despite trying to copy their blueprint

 

[Gritsngravy]

The problem with the white Sox is eloy and Luis can’t stay healthy, and yoan was overhyped
But they all relatively young so things can turn around
