Things start getting good around here

Thanks!

Piscotty deserves to be on the roster over Jon Jay. Dude has flat out raked this ST.

I only got to catch the last inning or so but Dan was saying Jay has had a lot of hard hit balls that made outs. Do we really think this is a possibility? I see Piscotty as being the future but Jay could make a good trade chip if his value was able to rebound even a bit.

Momentum's like a 27% increase to clutch factor after all!

Just looking at the Mariners schedule again, man we kinda lucked out as far as Interleague games go this year.

Apparently the Tigers & Miggy are close on a "huge" extension. I hope it's for a whole lot of years and a stupid amount of money.

Scherzer should've taken the money. Now Miggy is going to reap from his dumbassery.

 

[Dominican Power]

Scherzer only has 1 elite year under his belt. He's dumb.

I forget how young he was when he came up in 2003. He'll only be 31 this year.

Damn, AAV of $30 million? I chose the wrong profession.

Yeah committing to him for another 7 seasons at around $30 million per now that he's 31 is exactly the type of contract I hoped he'd sign!

Gaddamn, 8/280 is what I just saw for the rumors on twitter.

Holy fuck

they're going to regret this. Big time.

Jerry Crasnick ‏@jcrasnick 3m
The deal covers the two years on Miggy's current contract and 8 additional years, source says. #tigers

Jerry Crasnick ‏@jcrasnick 4m
Miguel Cabrera's new deal with #tigers will be for 10 years and just under $300M, says a baseball source.

no fucking way...

 

[Syrinx]

Gaddamn, 8/280 is what I just saw for the rumors on twitter.

Whoa.

That sounds...ill-advised.

 

[BFIB]

Looks like the deal will piggyback off his current deal, totaling 10 years, at "just under $300 mil"

Trout's pants just bunched up in the back.

 

[CygnusXS]

Wonder if Miggy would like to pay my student loans off for me.

You mean in the front?

 

[Plinko]

What a terrible deal by the Tigers.

In 5 yrs this deal will make them look foolish at best.

 

[ConradCervantes]

no fucking way...

WHAAAAT

 

[rekameohs]

Trout will be a billionaire by the time he retires.

 

[BFIB]

You mean in the front?

He'll afford to have them bunched up anywhere.

 

[Lambtron]

I don't care that he's not played above single A yet. The Twins should go give Mr. Buxton a 15 year, $200 million deal right now.

Give him $40 million a year, Dave. Come on. Really make it rain!

 

[Malo]

I can't wait to see the deal Trout gets.

 

[Pryce]

I can't wait to see the deal Trout gets.

400 million. If Anaheim doesn't, you bet your ass the Yankees or Dodgers will. Maybe even Boston.

 

[Square Triangle]

Oh boy

 

[clemenx]

Wat. That's an odd way of thanking for past services, lol.

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

As a Tigers fan, I'm feeling nervous right now. Cabrera has a chance to be worth it, but there's a pretty big chance that will be an albatross in his age 39 and 40 seasons. Still, I'll wait to see what the exact terms are.

 

[Windu]

6 yrs until he is traded

 

[Syrinx]

In unrelated news, today is Matt Harvey's 25th birthday.

Happy Birthday, Matt. Get well soon.

 

[rekameohs]

I really wish Pujols would've taken the Marlins' offer a couple years ago without any trade clauses to see how the hell teams would try to unload him.

 

[CygnusXS]

At least he's been the picture of perfect health, right guys?

By planting "evidence" of him buying steroids in Miami, so that he'd get banned by the MLB!!

He really does want to be a Phillie.

If he is productive for another 8 years I'd be totally shocked. I think this will probably be an albatross around his age 33, 34 season. And then there's plenty more years to go. The Tigers best chance for this to work out is if they can void the contract after he injures himself driving drunk again.

 

[BFIB]

I just can't get over how anyone that had any decision making from the Tigers side thought this is a good deal.

Unless the owner has completely lost his mind, which is possible.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

The Phillies could just consist of Trout. Imagine a game where Trout plays all of the positions. Trout Bobblehead nights every week.

I am in.

You're getting out of hand.

"Well now that we shipped one all bat, no glove first baseman out because his contract was a disaster let's give our other all bat, no glove first baseman an even bigger contract. What could possibly go wrong?"

 

[rando14]

Sounds like they're concluding it's 10/292

...

jeeeez

 

[Y2Kev]

They should do like Miggy 10/400

just b/c

 

[Malo]

I bet he wants the most money he can get a heck of a lot more.

 

[Sanjuro]

I picked up some Little Caesars tonight. My dollars are going straight to Miggy.

What a coincidence because I'm HOT and READY.

 

[aFIGurANT]

Goddamnit you stole my joke.

Here's another take: Miggy will never buy Little Caesars again after this; the twist being he's going to become the new owner with all that cash and change the name to Bigg Miggy's. Takeover complete.

 

[yankeehater]

So Dodgers it is then.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Miguel about to get paid! Deal also includes all the Little Ceaser he can eat. Trout to be 1st billion dollar player.

 

[Malo]

Yankees west aren't outbidding us!

It's not a joke. This crazy bread is delicious you bastard.
