That’s a decent pitch, but I’m still not seeing 400M. He’d have to come down. Substantially.

I saw an article that said one game in WAR was worth 5 million and change in 2022. Inflation since then turns it into 6 and change. Tucker averages 5.7 WAR a year. Foxy Brown math says that's worth about 35 million a year or 350 over 10 years.

28 years old with great skills should be about to see about 40 a year. Only real downside is injury risk, and he has missed time, but there's no major red flags that I can think of. He should be able to make 40, and if Trump keeps bumping up inflation, 40 would be a bargain pretty soon.

Man I’m at work, but I’m ready to move Acuña, Mauricio, Vientos, McNeil, and Nimmo, to see what it can fetch. I know uncle Steve wasn’t tryna spend big every year.. but he may need to do so again in order to get talent back for some of those contracts.

Nimmo and McNeil might have a role as major league talent in trade to small market team for top of rotation ace. Eat their contract and I'm sure somebody would be interested in one of them. I'm sure they would love Nimmo in Minnesota.
