Lets say that he signs for $16.5M AAV over 3 years, but the 3rd year is a club option with a $2M buyout. Does the compensation only account for the guaranteed money? |

Edit: Yeah, as I read it, it's based on 'total guaranteed' so the $2 million buyout would be factored in but not the potential salary. So I would think a player option would count but not a team/mutual option. I don't think you'll see that be used to manipulate the system much if at all because the players are still going to obviously want as much guaranteed money as they can get.

Maybe Glass ordered the code red?

I mean hell I could argue for keeping Moustakas he looked like he had found a power stroke last year...power is expensive, he plays like that this coming season his value at the deadline would be massive.

Maybe Dodgers think they can get inside track on resigning him (LA kid)

Unless the return is huge, and I can't imagine it would be, that would be a tough loss to absorb in 2017... I'm not convinced Cuthbert can take a step up and be an .800 plus OPS hitter with above average D. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm not as good at predicting TJ as you are; having an elite closer translates to wins. Look at how many games Soria cost us last year and he was league average. If we had Holland at full strength last year and no Soria we make the playoffs. I don't think we would have made the playoffs with an extra 0.080 OPS out of our 3rd baseman last year.

Defensively it's hard to say. Great numbers in part time 2015, poor last year. From the eye test he seems athletic and has a great arm. He's not as good as Moose in any facet but he can be a 2 WAR guy next year easy. |

I just think his start was just a hot streak before the injury. I would love him to be a bona-fide power threat. Maybe he turns it on late? Who knows?

That's a good start for turning all of the city's attention back towards the football team again.

Yeah, I think that's in reach. But think it's a 2-3 win drop overall. Moustakas' steady defensive hand was definitely missed last year. And 10 HR make a big difference in value, too. Would need to see the return. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
