@CBoxTrace @bryce_spalding Well the time has come. Is it fools gold so far with Austin Hendrick
English

@bryce_spalding I say we put Austin Hendrick in AAA to test the theory permanently.
English

I’m trying to say this in the nicest way possible….
AAA pitching sucks. Like really bad.
Add ABS + bad pitching, there’s a reason the average OPS in the international league is .768 (!). Last year it was .794! Average!
I don’t think Martini magically can hit again, but maybe he’s got some confidence back and it helps spark something… idk. #Reds
English

@YankeesFiles @JamesLarson47 No he hasn’t. A lot of teams could certainly spent more but a revenue share greatly helps with that
English

@RyanSchimpFan @Zach6407 @TalkinBaseball_ Agreed however the nfl does this by turning parts of the contract into a signing bonus. There will always be ways to circumvent the salary cap but hopefully it’s less egregious than ohtanis contract
English

@ATOBTTR1 @Zach6407 @TalkinBaseball_ The only problem would be if they don’t make rules abt deferments.
Bc then teams like Dodgers or Mets could just continue spending insane amounts over the cap by deferring 90% of the players contracts

All the teams that would need to adjust payroll based on the MLB's latest proposal

Talkin' Baseball@TalkinBaseball_
MLB proposed a hard salary cap of $245.3 million and a salary floor of $171.2 million for 2027 as part of the next CBA, per @JesseRogersESPN
English

@RMTFKR11 @RyanSchimpFan @Zach6407 @TalkinBaseball_ Lmao every sport with a salary cap shows why that isn’t true. I’m sure nba players with max contracts are crying about how poor they are rn. Players union can get fucked
English

@ATOBTTR1 @RyanSchimpFan @Zach6407 @TalkinBaseball_ And the players union will never accept the terms because a salary cap means less money for them
English

@RyanSchimpFan @Zach6407 @TalkinBaseball_ Exactly. They are both an issue and now you have solutions for the dodgers and poverty teams
English

@Zach6407 @TalkinBaseball_ That’s literally the entire point of a Floor and Cap. Both are a problem and both get fixed.

@CBoxSports @Nicholaspkirby Ellys future replacement after he signs with the dodgers for 2 billion
English

@JeffPassan I’d love this. I’d prefer not increasing the minimum salary as that’ll just make it easier to hit the 150m without adding anything but W from the MLBPA
English

@MetsSuckAzz @JeffPassan What’s so bad about this
English

@0hioBallKnower I don’t think any other outfielder gets close to that
English

@MountMcKeever Easy to see on paper how big of a loss stirtz is but 35th a bit low. That lineup has some serious depth and it’ll be awesome to watch McCollum utilize it and develop throughout the season.
English

Rothstein has Manyawu starting at Power Forward and McKeever starting at Center.
I think most have been assuming a 6th man role for Manyawu but this lineup is certainly interesting.
