[Mertron]

my estimation is that negotiations are not going well

https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/...reduced-salary

also, snell seems like a dick

[Abandon]

he's uhm... can i still say retarded or no

[NynJa]

I think that should be permissible.

He's not wrong about this though:

The former American League Cy Young Award winner also told the Times he would be willing to skip the 2020 season and said the owners' proposal of a revenue split is "is super frustrating because we have way more risk."

Owners dont travel with the team, dont have to interact with the media, the fans, etc.

Lol, yeah. Different sport, but Dan Snyder hasn't done a public thing since around 2014/15 iirc, partly because he sucks, but also because he doesn't have to.

i just read an article that prince fielder, who retired 4 years ago, is likely to be the highest salary of any baseball player this year, since he is guaranteed $24 mil that is still left on his contract

friendly reminder that Bobby Bonilla will still be cashing that check

[Koyangi]

That Prince Fielder contract was $traight ca$h homie. Pay someone that much guaranteed and he injures himself out of the league.

Noone could have seen it coming, he looked so healthy

[archibaldcrane]

(to be fair I think he played in more games than any other MLB player in the years before he left Milwaukee)

Yeah, fielder despite his weight was fucking durable until he literally fell apart at the seams.

680+ plate appearances 7 years straight is pretty incredible

[archibaldcrane]

He has as many 680 PA seasons as Pujols and Rickey Henderson combined.

[Mertron]

yes but what was his td/int ratio

[Koyangi]

0/0, since you can't divide by zero, checkmate, bitches!

[Melena]

Former Astro's manager Art Howe is in the ICU due to Covid-19

[Mertron]

the Astros community will be by his side

altuve can sit next to him in the hospital and buzz the nurse

[Koyangi]

LMAO DAMN

[Mertron]
