Including children whose families can't pay rent. Fuck this fuck.

Correction - Danault is at $5.5 not $5.0, and he has 1 year left after this one (its not expiring as it is a 6 year deal). I guess at 5.5m for next year, its not a bad contract but not looking great either, In theory its a similar deal / player to what the Leafs did for Laughton last year...

Nothing that Danault was in the last year of his 5/25 contract, it made think pack to the summer of 2021 and the stupidity Marc Bergevin acted with that summer. As I posted in the summer of 2021, Bergeron's insistence on paying MIke Hoffman instead of Danault was crazy. Wouldn't pay Danault...

Canadiens have re-acquired Phillipe Danault for a second round pick. If this had happened in the off-season it would be considered an absolute steal. A #2/#3 center who is strong defensively, and has averaged 40 points in even strength the last 4 years. And he had just scored 8 points in 6...

A lot of pitchers that are possibilities that would not be major losses if picked up on waivers. - Bastardo (who still must be treated like a Rule 5 in 2026), Schultz, Lee, Macko, Estrada, Nance. My guess is that Schultz or Macko might be the one to go.

I didn't know about Fairbanks problems until about 2 weeks ago. I don't think it was widely discussed previously or I was oblivious to it. I guess it wouldn't be a problem for home games. Agree with you on the chemistry. Bassitt may have been a leader for the staff, and there as a great...

They picked up 1 million of his $7.4 million this year. (and 1 million of his $6 million contract last year) And the $1.75 million to buy him out next year.

Bo, Bregman, Bellinger, every reliever except Diaz, would have no compensation for the Jays. Tucker would though (and Cease did) The penalties are likely to get worse after 2026 for the Jays, because they got under the tax line in 2025. . Next year the penalties will be more and I assume...

You are mistaken on Straw. He will be very easy to move in 2027 and 2028 as those years are "Club Options". As per the terms of the trade the $1.75 million buyout is the responsibility of the Indians. So the Jays financial obligations for Straw end this year with his $6.4M contract. Rich for...

Kelly came in at 2/40 which was above predicted market... so that makes Berrios a bit easier to move than per my post above. We still have to eat a decent part of his deal (unless its a bad contract in return) but maybe its 10-15% less. Also that is a pretty good comp for what Bassitt will...

I guess the question is whether 2024 was a down year or not. He did have have an ERA of 3.60, but his FI was 4.72, which suggested there was some luck in that year. So I'm not sure if 2025 was really an isolated year, or just a continuation of 2024, with some decline in his stuff. I assume...

I don't think there are people of his quality (or indicators) that will be signing for close to 3/70 though. Berrios FIP's the last two years (4.72 and 4.65) are not good... and front offices look way more at FIP than ERA, as its more predictive. He also had a fairly significant decline in...

Bassitt is almost certainly not happening, and Fairbanks went from possible to very unlikely after Rogers signed. (I think Fairbanks and Rogers were in the same tier that they were looking to sign 1 pitcher). Bassitt's has had predicted salaries in the 2/35 range from multiple sites...

He is still 100% a hall of famer. But he probably will not get in during the first year.

A big part of his compensation is based on games played. He gets $550,000 each time he hits the following targets - 20,30, 40,50,60 (he has played 30, so he got $1,100,00 He gets an extra $550,000 for playing 50 games and if the Jets make the playoffs. The best decision might be stop playing...
