CMON TUCKER SIGN WITH US
Well, I bloody well hope they have, by now
Its the endgame now. Feels like a decision will be made this week (hopefully)
The way this is dragging on, It feels like Blue Jays are just getting used again to raise his price for LA or NYM.
It seems to come down to what his preference is – short term or long term. Not much the Jays can do at this point
Dragging on far too long
Yes please!
Haven’t seen any reporting on what the Jays offered on a long term basis. People saying it comes down to long v. short term are kind of jumping to conclusions without any details on what the Jays or other teams’ long terms offers are.
I am guessing the offer is above $300 M over 10 years but that’s a total guess.
Jays probably will match any offer for him. If they are willing to go long term at 300 plus why wouldn’t they jump to do 150 over 3 instead.
If he signs elsewhere it will be because he didn’t want to come to the Jays, not because they didn’t match money.
Hopefully the lack of free viagra in the deal does not mean a hard pass.
I love how last year those of us who thought we were even a ~30% underdog to land Soto were called delusional to think the chances were anywhere near that high, and now suddenly when we are far and away the favourites to land Tucker it’s “Oh I bet this is like Soto all over again”.

It’s time for the Jays to go ballsdeep with a Godfather offer (~$430M). If he hems and haws, move on to securing Bo.
Just a question.. looking at his stats.. he doesn’t seem like a really really premier player. You think $30-$40 mil is justified for him? Could we not get a better player for that money. I don’t know his game much so I am just asking.
Give him 55M a year for three years with some vesting options based on games played – I’d love to pay max dollars for his 29-31 seasons and not have to worry about 33 and beyond.
Based on nothing, I get the feeling there will be a report in a few hours that Tucker has signed elsewhere.
This feels all too familiar.
Hopefully Tucker will want a long term deal rather than a short term one. I also just read that it looks like the Jays are moving on from Bichette so they really need this signing in a big way.
BEST TUCKER IN TORONTO SINCE DARCY
Here a graph of Mets vs Yankee fans and where they come from.
Why bother with this when you’ll have an entire country behind you & the training facility so close to one’s Florida home! There has to be other factors than just the money?! right? 😟 right?!
Jays keep their long term offer on the table but adjust it. $30, $50, $50 $30 x 6 remaining years. 9 years $310million. PO and TO after 6 years with a buyout for TO.
A short term deal is so beatable with creative accounting player Options, Front loading etc.
I have it on pretty good authority that the Jays made an offer to Tucker like 5 weeks ago and his camp has just been in a holding pattern waiting for another one to compete with it.
Hmm what would you choose everyone:
* 3/150m for 50m AAV, The Mets (83-79, .512%), risk dealing with a lockout and not getting as much AAV in the second contract; or,
* 4+/150m+, The Blue Jays (94-68, .580%), have a higher average AAV for the same period, join a team that went to game 8 of the WS and the roster remains relatively unchanged.
I think I know who I would pick.
Just a hypothetical question …
If the Mets offer him $50M for 3 years, why cant we just offer him like $50M for 4-5 years?? Just up whatever offer hes offered. I feel like thats better than 10 years even with a smaller aav.
Am I crazy?? Lol
Makes me feel like they’re just being used to up the price from another team tbh.
If we sign Tucker, he’s going to be transformed by the positive environment here and pop-off.

If we don’t, he’s going to be the next Rendon.
I don’t want to hear no “dark horse” emerging
