Kolek planning to go pro
Probably a long shot to find anyone here, but....Starting a new $350 MLB Keeper League on Yahoo. This will be the inaugural season. 12 team H2H 7x7 stat categories. 100% payout (payouts below). I currently have 11 managers, but only about half of those are paid so plenty of spots left. Looking to try to fill this league within the next couple days, so if you have any interest, shoot me a PM and I will get you more info or whatever else you need. Keepers will be pretty straight forward - get to keep 4 players. All players drafted in top 3 rounds not allowed as keepers. You get the keep the player the following season in the round in which you drafted them in current season (ie: draft Vlad Guerrero Jr in 5th round this spring, you get to keep him in 5th round next year, etc.) Payouts as follows:1st Place Regular Season: $10002nd Place Regular Season:$6003rd Place Regular Season: $3501st place Playoffs: $1,5002nd Place Playoffs: $750Draft is Tuesday March 24th at 8pm CT. Thanks!
Brews close to a 7-year deal with Yelich.
Auction or snake draft?
Much too thick for my blood. I'm curious as to how the "playoffs" work for you; I've only done rotisserie leagues. Are the playoffs the last 4 weeks? Two weeks? What if your stud has nothing to play for in September, and gets shut down (Trout last season, for example)?
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.
$30-35 million/year
But Mark A is a cheap penny pincher and suggesting he'd ever open his pocketbook is laughable. I had a feeling a big extension was coming for Yeli when the Brewers were letting everyone they could walk. Yeli was dirt cheap for the production he was giving the Brewers. Good for him and good for the team.
Yeah, I won’t even go into ROI with you on this one wades. Don’t want you to feel dumb. If you’re ever around and want to talk to some of the brewers management and ask them their personal thoughts, let me know
Actually less than 25 per year. 9 years 215 million.Extension is 7 for 190ish
Maybe....The new contract might take effect this year and replace the last 2 years on the old one.We don't know details yet.
Please, have at it. I don’t think you will.
#donedealKen Rosenthal @Ken_RosenthalSource confirms: Moncada five-year extension is for $70M. Exercising of club option can bring total value to $90M. On it: @BNightengale.
There's no team in sports that does these extensions better than the White Sox. They maximize asset value on these contracts so well (there's plenty of things they don't do well on the flip side). Anderson, Moncada, Robert, Jimenez are all signed through 2025, at more than affordable salaries. I'd imagine Giolito will be next and get something like a 4yr/$60ish contract coming his way soon.
Just curious.. what's the White Sox extension which we know has worked out well?
Learned lessons from John Hart who did this for Cleveland back a decade or more ago. I've often wondered why more teams didn't do it.
Chris SaleJose Quintana
Adam Eaton?
This is a really good post, well done on the memory bank (no pun intended). Hart did do this and kept that team really really good for a long time.
You're one of the great posters here on Scoop. You always post with class - something that I, so far at least, fail miserably at.Now, if you could just lose the Ditka avatar ....
