They absolutely are paying his salary. Verlander hasn't been all that great this year to command something like that, otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguably their top two prospects. Man, that's a hefty price even with Mets paying the salary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it and I'll never fault a team for trying. Good news is you all had a surplus of OF prospects to trade from, so there is that. It was just more than I thought and way more than anything we've seen changing hands this deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agarcia34 Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 What a get for the Os. Such a fun team to watch Dodgers only getting Lynn out of this trade deadline would be massive fail. Come on Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't be surprised to find out that he leaked the veto prior to the deadline so he could stay in Detroit and collect checks. We absolutely should not rework his deal under current circumstances. Cut your losses and put him in the 'pen for the rest of the season. Edited August 2, 2023 by nagahide13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
