1. Good, another W for Monti

2. I wonder if they fully guaranteed the rest of his contract as well

3. That’s the reason for that big smile!! FU Tim rank “ Monti won this battle of not folding to the player “

4. Common Monti W

5. Well now we can buy his jersey!

6. Now let’s build a team worthy of him so he doesn’t waste his career.

7. Let’s goooo

8. Yeah this makes no sense. His play has been regressing, he’s been getting hurt more often and his prototype of safety is quickly becoming obsolete. I get he’s a fan favorite and a “leader” but that’s not an excuse to pay more for him. They should’ve traded him, he’s probably never going to be worth more… not to mention what purpose does he serve on a team that will fight for 6 wins?

9. Monti already running circles around Keim. Not that it’s hard to do that

10. My relief is palpable!

11. Hope he’s happy. I want him here.

12. Not gonna hit the cap soon anyway.

13. Let Monti cook!
