The real issue is service time.

The players just didn't focus on that when Detroit's owner was willing to fork out $200 million to aging vets whenever he wanted to have fun.

it's just a correction. I mean the players won't see it that way, but it is.
Service time is absolutely going to become an issue. Of course, that will screw over the Royals.

Only if the players don't strike first.

He should fire Scott Boras.

Lolololol.

But honestly did anyone expect him to not at least get a half way decent contract. Also he didnt want the one year deal knowing the free agents this year.

Travis Shaw apparently said this morning he still expects to play third. This means Moustakas will be playing 2B. I'm guessing we'll have to see how well that works in spring training first though

Spin it however you'd like, but the bottom line is Boras straight ****ed Moustakas out of some serious life changing money.

So his life changes if he has 27M instead of 18m? Yeah, sure.

tk13 02-18-2019 02:27 PM
Craig Counsell basically confirmed that if all goes well they're going to start Moose at 2B. It's obvious from the last couple years that the Brewers are basically more concerned with scoring runs than preventing them.

Not trying to spin anything. I have no reason to spin it in the first place. Im just pointing out that no one at that time thought that Moose should have taken the QO. People would have called him an idiot if he would have. Also lets not be dramatic, because he still got life changing money.

Good to know 9 million isn't "life changing" in your view. I think you're full of shit, but good to know nonetheless.

Typical thinking about defense is out the window when Pablo Sandoval is able to make at least one play at 2B.

For sure, but Boras made a rather critical mistake trying to get his client paid. Which is, you know, his primary duty.

It's whatever at this point, but I am still kind of surprised he didn't drop Boras after all of that business.

that's like...one of the dumbest plans I've ever heard for a pro level organization.

I think its kinda funny, since Boras is Boras and from most accounts Moose is sort of a little bitch. I think I blame Moose more than Boras though. No one wanted to sign Moose due to his attitude.
