    Go hard after Machado now with the plan to sign Trout in two years. Machado locks your incredibly talented infield up through 2022 at an AAV roughly around $50M per. Plus 2/3rds of the OF at 22M per through 2021. That would give them roughly $80-110M to round out the rest of the roster in the years ahead and open up some tradable assets that could net them interesting prospects. Their pitching is still an issue, but by the time year one is done, they are freeing up some iffy money on bullpen expenditures.

    So you're getting rid Bohm, the #1 guy on their farm 3B 3rd overall draft pick?
    Or maybe deal Cesar Hernandez since he's still locked in and slide Segura over to 2B? Segura's really a SS, but he's had some time at 2B, could make it work

    Trout gonna shock everybody in free agency and replace Ben Simmons at point guard in 2021. Go get those NBA endorsements, signature shoes, etc.

    Dodgers get Harper, I buy season tickets. Dodgers do nothing, I'll go when someone gives me tickets. Maybe

    CKWG was talking about the Phillies. Are you saying this will be the Phillies lineup in 2021?

    Not really news or a rumor, but I'll take it. If we win that game and win the series, that becomes an iconic moment in Dodgers history. But the way it played out it's just a heartbreaking reminder that we lost to an inferior team. Even worse is that the main-stream-media dubbed that game (and Game 5) an instant fall classic, when it was really just a shit show at the end.

    re:Harper....Nightengale went on to declare the Nationals and Dodgers “definitely out of it,” though some of his skeptics will surely take that as a sign that Los Angeles is scheduling a press conference for Wednesday.








    We have a chance.

    Recovered from the 2018 WS in about an hour because we were clearly an inferior team.

    I still haven't recovered from 2017 and never will. All those post season and WS moments amounted to nothing but pain.

    Hopefully we can win a WS soon and maybe we can watch moments like that without wanting to cry. I mean, the Red Sox went 80 plus years and were able to find joy in Carlton Fisk in 75, that HR against the Angels in 86, etc.

    I just don't want the past 30 years to be so empty.

    I sure get what you're saying, but that's already a done deal. Unfortunately.
    The next thirty, more like.

    Looks like Borass has said hell to the no on any short term contract with high average salary.

    That means Gnats chances took a hit unless they do decide to roll the dice on him

    I wouldnt be shocked if Borass cuts his nose to spite his face and sit Harper down for the whole year.

    He did it with JD Drew if I’m not mistaken. I don’t know if Harper will want to lose a year of his prime to be a martyr though.
