They'll be happy in a few years. . . 

Probably not

They are desperate to sign one of the Top Tier FA big bucks which most likely it will blow up in their face in a few years

So it will just be Brandon Nimmo or Carlos Rondon that they overpaid and not Aaron Judge

So let’s recap…

17.5/1 year for a glove only CF.

17/year for a #3 or #4 pitcher.

17.5/year for the leader of the team that also has a good bat and strong arm? Nope. No fucking way. Sorry Willson, can’t afford ya. Had to save that money for FUCKING CODY BELLINGER.

Fuck this team. The dumbfucks talking about money and how AEW should be run in the AEW thread could run the Cubs better.

What the heck happened to Cody Bellinger? He was awesome as a rookie. 2 years later, he was freaking Ted Williams for 90 games and wins an MVP. Since then, he's freaking Mario Mendoza with a little more power.

his last few years have involved injuries and tinkering with his batting stance?

Got hurt, then changed his batting stance, and hasn’t changed it since. He’s a shittier Jayson Heyward.

"That Mas-ah-tak-ah, I think he's ah wicked playah" - Red Sox fans if Yoshida starts off good

The good news is we had Koji Uehara to tell all Japanese how great the Sox fans are.

The bad news is we have Daisuke Matsutaka tell all japanese how the sox fans suck

Yeah. The Ricketts are notoriously broke and poor having suffered "biblical losses." 

If not for the World Series win, I'd say this team now is run worse than the Zell/Hendry years. And from what I understand, Jed is the perfect yes man/dope to just do whatever Tom Ricketts wants so I'm sure Jed will remain as GM until his soul is finally crushed by ownership and Theo helps give him a soft landing with whatever F1 stuff he's secretly/not so secretly into. Although, even without such a corrupt owner, I think Jed still sucks as a baseball executive and honestly always has sucked as an executive. There's no excuse for how poorly this team is run when you can look at smaller market teams and see how much better they're run and how much better they perform.

Padres are like a first timer to a casino, they just can't wait to spend all that money.

They have a seemingly endless supply of money. They drew pretty well this year but... wow. They've spent crazy amounts of money the last couple years.

Speaking of Jason Heyward - the Dodgers signed him to a minor league deal with an invitation to Spring Training

They’re paying him 700k. 

Cubs are basically paying around 40 million for Heyward and Bellinger.

The Blue Jays have signed *checks notes* literally nobody, seems great

 

Though in seriousness the pitching staff has some real problems. Kikuchi is... who fucking knows at this point, there's no guarantee Hyun-Jin Ryu is going to be any good when he comes back, and Ross Stripling bailed out your ass last year but are you really sure he can do it again? They need more starting pitching or being a contender is a non-starter of a discussion.
