7/$132, according to Passan. What a steal.Over/under on 8/$192M?
If X was already getting 12M this year, is there a difference between "7/132 starting now", and "6/120 starting next year" - as far as the luxury tax is concerned in this, and future seasons?Speier says the extension will start next year and it is 6 years $120 million. I'm guessing the 7/132 is including this year's salary.
It would be 18.9 this year and the following 6 vs 12 this year and 20 for 6 years, I think.If X was already getting 12M this year, is there a difference between "7/132 starting now", and "6/120 starting next year" - as far as the luxury tax is concerned in this, and future seasons?
If that's the only option, this is an absolutely amazing deal.
Sherman: Hear that there is a 7th yr vesting option on the Bogaerts deal. #Redsox
Players are increasingly capitulating to the market power of the owners.Over/under on 8/$192M?

If 7/132 is true, then it's an absolute steal.
That’s the only way you’re getting him for a discounted price as a Boras client.And there's the buzzkill. Since it starts this year, it's essentially a 2 year extension if he continues to perform.
considering our window, having him for 2020 and 2021 is coolAnd there's the buzzkill. Since it starts this year, it's essentially a 2 year extension if he continues to perform.
It’s also the year the new CBA would kick in if there’s no crippling strike. So, if Tony Clark avoids giving up even more ground, then he could get his fair share of the revenues players generate.That’s the only way you’re getting him for a discounted price as a Boras client.
So he’s here for at least four more. Awesome.For clarification, the opt out is after 2022
The extension starts next year so it will be at least a 3 year extension.And there's the buzzkill. Since it starts this year, it's essentially a 2 year extension if he continues to perform.
This is what I've been saying for the past year. Lot of good shortstops out there.The extension starts next year so it will be at least a 3 year extension.
This is great news but I'm not shocked at the numbers, I didn't see a huge market for him out there.
Edit:Opt out stuff was cleared up.
If the FA market performs the same the next two years as it did the past two, I Doubt he opts out. That is if a long work stoppage doesn’t cripple baseballAnd there's the buzzkill. Since it starts this year, it's essentially a 2 year extension if he continues to perform.
I am shocked that a Boras client signed before free agency. The last notable Boras client I remember doing a team-friendly deal before free agency was Jered Weaver.
I’m guessing that the last two FA markets spooked Boras and caused a change in how he operates.a Boras client wants to stay with us!
Rendon if he gets there.So now the best hitter on this years FA market is.
Abreu?
No.Is anyone else getting the “I want to keep playing for Alex” vibe from these extensions?
Given Xander’s comments about Farrell last year at this time, I think it’s fair to assume swapping managers helped his decision to stay.Is anyone else getting the “I want to keep playing for Alex” vibe from these extensions?
The decision is up to Xander. Boras works for him.I’m guessing that the last two FA markets spooked Boras and caused a change in how he operates.
