Title: Spend Ricketts Money: Free Agents
Post by: Chuck to Chuck on July 29, 2014, 11:36:37 AM
Crazy Rumor Guy's current free agent rankings. (http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2014/07/2015-free-agent-power-rankings-4.html)

I'm in for #1 and #2.  At $20mm per year each, payroll in 2015 would be right at $100mm.

I'll also sign up for Scherzer and Lester and you can pencil me in for Melky as well if they can get him on a 2-3 year deal, which is probably unlikely.

And if they want the Cuban (the guy on this list, not the guy that everyone scouted last week) that's fine too.

Scherzer already turned down $144 for six years. Do you think he plans on coming down from that number?

I think I could really get down with a Yosmani Tomas signing.

I don't care. At both of them at $25mm per year, that's still a payroll less than what they had in 2010.

By $34mm.

I actually just click "Show unread posts since last visit" and then I read those.

Unless they're about TV shows, movies, politics, hockey, video games...

Whatever happened to Nicky Katt?  He's certainly better than Joaquin Phoenix.
