Craig H Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 So an agent spoke with one of the shitty Chicago sports reporters, I forget which because almost all suck, and they said they offered a middle of the rotation pitcher for only about $5 million and the Cubs had to turn down the offer because they either have to clear payroll or ownership hasn't committed to a budget. Fuck the whole Ricketts family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Speaking of fucking awful Chicago sports writers...Paul Sullivan has been named the President of the BBWAA. The replies to the tweet announcing it are a goldmine. Paul Sullivan fucking sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) The Blue Jays sign RHP Tanner Roark to a 2 yr deal worth $24 million. The Mets have agreed to a 1 yr deal with RHP Michael Wacha. The deal is still pending a physical, but is worth $3 million, and Wacha could earn another 7 mil in incentives. The Dodgers have agreed to a 1 yr/10 mil deal with former A's closer Blake Treinen. Edited December 12, 2019 by Nice Guy Eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumors had them looking to deal for him before OAK non-tendered him. Couple of things I saw had them also looking to maybe swing deals that still land them Lindor and potentially then deal Seager for a MLB level SP.

grilledcheese Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Boy, they are fucking falling quick this year, eh? Dallas Keuchel didn't get a job until June! I wonder if Bum is the next one to go. If he lands in LA, I promise I will still call him out for being hella bitchmade when he whines about a strikezone, or throws at a Puerto Rican guy for no reason, or makes a pissface when someone takes him deep. He's always been super cunty, and I can't imagine a Dodger uniform will change that. It will only serve to make his horseshit ever so slightly less unbearable.
