Why? He appears to be doing want he always wanted. MANAGE. SMILE WITH A GIDDY SMILE. SERVE UP A HEEPING PILE OF BS TO YANKEES' FANS.

My best guess is that AA is being a little bit sarcastic .

Don't wanna be Rash
There's still time for Cash
To swing a deal or Two
But with Doom and Gloom
At F@$&ing Full Bloom
This season is
Gunna be Trash

We swoon over Boone,
The whole room, just like loons.
Let me croon from my balloon,
About this man, Papa Boone.

From the gloom, not too soon,
we shall sway, all unglued,
We shall dance neath the moon.
Let us cheer our man Boone.

They annoy
And cause pain
And we follow them
In vain
Cause the hills that
We climbed
We’re from seasons
Back in time

WE HAD JOY, WE HAD FUN, WE HAD SEASONS IN THE SUN, BUT THE HILLS THAT WE CLIMBED WERE JUST SEASONS OUT OF TIME.

THERE. ARE YOU HAPPY? YOU MADE ME DO IT, DAMN IT. NOW I HAVE TO GO TO SLEEP WITH THAT HATCHET OF A SONG HACKING AWAY AT MY EARS...

DAMN YANKEES...

Tucker to the Dodgers. $240 mill: 4 years at $60 mill a pop. We HAVE slipped into an alternate reality.

Market distorting overpay, Hoss. Tucker deal is too outrageous. We must be missing something. The possibility cannot be dismissed that the owners are allowing, even encouraging, the Dodgers to monopolize high end talent in order to consolidate general opinion that a fundamental restructuring of the industry's finances is necessary.

You may well be right, Publius. Or do they just think the Dodgers will hang themselves in the long run?

Tucker batted .266 last year, and his OPS dropped 152 points. He is a lifetime .273 hitter, who has never played an entire season and missed a combined 110 games over the last two years. Baseball reference rated him a -0.7 WAR in the field last year.

I can see overpaying for Babe Ruth. This is overpaying for Roy White.

And what does it mean for Bellinger?

Publius said...

Eliminates the Dodgers, probably. No other team, certainly not the Yankees, are even going to approach those numbers for Bellinger. The Yankees are probably willing to come closest. Boras is negotiating against himself now, I think. His main leverage at this point is spite. "He'll sign elsewhere for less just to prove a point".
