If I had to guess, most players who have a .900 OPS one season in AAA don't end up like Aaron Judge. |

Doesn’t mean I can’t pray for Boras to eat a bullet.

I wouldn't say that. Most of these guys have little to no education, they totally rely on their agent (and their lawyers if nec, tho they overlap). They also face tremendous pressure from their union to hold out for every dime to set markets.

I'm sure they have pressure from the agent and the union to get the best deal, but I don't know if taking a couple mil or a year less is going to bring the wrath of the union. But it's their career and they make the ultimate decision on whether a deal is good enough. |

New Royals billboard.
I think we just signed Brett to play 1st base. Or 3rd, I guess. |

With that deal I'm a bit skeptical Moose is going to get to $50 million, but anything's possible I guess. I really think the whole 2 WAR thing is killing him... I thought it would knock down his market, but not nearly to this extent. Apparently Dayton did say this today. I don't know what options Moose has left at this point though.

Out of the two, I would have figured Moose would have been the one having more of an attachment to KC. Maybe not.

Well KC needs to keep 1 or the other. Hoz or Moose. Can't let both leave.

Wow, Dayton's sort of tossing Moose under the bus in terms of his desire to stay in KC.
