Quote from: JWags85 on January 16, 2026, 07:48:16 AMI mean, speaking as a Cubs fan, I'm not thrilled about losing Tucker, but they just signed a big name All Star/Gold Glove third baseman for $175MM last week. They signed another All Star/Gold Glove player in Swanson a few offseasons ago. They aren't Little Sisters of the Poor who can't afford any top free agents.
If not the Dodgers, the Mets were gonna overpay for Tucker. He was gone anyways.
Listen, what the Dodgers are doing is absurd. I saw that they are actually paying $120MM a year for Tucker (The $60MM plus luxury taxes on it). That's larger than some team payrolls. They have more than $800MM in contracts in excess of the total contracts of the Padres, who are second, and have a bunch of inflated contracts of their own. Any disappointment I have is divorced from any Cubs fanship cause I assumed he'd likely be going to Queens anyways.
What I think is more insane is, while he is a very good player, Tucker (4x AS, 1 GG, 2 SS) is making DOUBLE the annual salary of Mookie Betts (8x AS, 1 MVP, 6 GG, and 7 SS) and only $10MM (14%) less than Ohtani who is the best player of the last 25 years and who has a realistic chance of chasing down Bonds' 7 MVPs.

Quote from: willie warrior on January 18, 2026, 06:13:46 PMGotcha. Transparency and unwillingness to admit that he has to change somehow are not important
Quote from: GB Warrior on Today at 10:07:43 AMI'm seeing Daboll chatter... I think Josh will be forced into injury retirement within 3 years if Daboll is allowed a second go at him
