redsoxsuck05 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 It’s like we’re in an alternate universe where Dave Winfield leaves the Yankees to sign with the Padres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Joel Sherman: With all the hand wringing what will be thought when Machado, Harper and Arenado (extension?) combined are guaranteed near $1 billion this offseason? <Looks like Manny got his cash after all. In this collusion / corrupt world we live in.....he got his. Go figure> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but teams have stopped spending on players. Revenues are down and the players are getting screwed. It takes like 20 seconds on google to find a graph showing that.

Machado should outproduce that fairly comfortably. How do you determine if he out produces it???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a government protected monopoly where every 5 years a ton of lawyers have to gather and write a several hundred page contract exhausting everything from travel/hotel responsibilities to service time to who tips the clubbies.

Thelonebillsfan Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Player revenue is down across the board relative to past teends, the mid range free agent no longer exists. These have been the things we've been talking about for the last six months, if you seriously are still trying to obfuscate and miss the point and what we've been discussing that's on you.

Just as Ayn Rand intended. I honestly can't think of a single more regulated market than Sports. Certain level of irony that all these obscenely wealthy people are all for regulation when it benefits them. But that's neither here nor there.
