3. I’d be shocked if this is anything more than a make the org look good type offer

4. “big swing”

5. This is a fake “see fans we’re trying” but they aren’t actually trying story. Nothing to see here.

6. I hope he goes to Pittsburgh

7. So what they can have two generational talents and let em waste away…get phucked

8. 4 years and “almost certainly more than $100 million” is basically the minimum if they offered any contract at all.  Especially for a team that isn’t guaranteed to compete.

9. This is the we couldn’t bring Kyle her but welcome Nick! Article.

10. What was the offer?

11. 4 years $4 a year. Very generous of them

12. They’ll underbid by $5 mil a season and end up taking Casty from us as a consolation

13. “Sources” are Schwabers agents getting the Phillies to just pay whatever he’s asking

14. somebody would’ve gotten fired if he actually accepted
