    What's weird about it is they are selling this to be another luxury tax deal, which would make sense, except they are already well under the tax threshold, so it leads you to believe there is another deal to come. (hypothetically of course)

    That, or they're going even lower to head off a mass exodus by their investors who were pissed how they bought the team?

    Like politics, a few people fuck everyone and the rest of us are forced to eat it.

    Honeycutt isn't Jesus and no miracle will save Homer Bailey from being a shitty pitcher.

    I don't think it is necessarily a tax saver deal. I think there is no place for Kemp and they are trying to find any taker for him. The Reds aren't exactly a rich team and probably can't afford an albatross contract when they are trying to win now. I think the Dodgers are trying to take advantage of their situation and are trying to say, "Give us someone worthless and we will give you someone with a similar salary, but could be useful for you. All we want is a decent prospect." Now with that said, Rosenthal said tonight that he has a hard time seeing this deal happening. There are a whole lot of different iterations of this deal, but nothing is close and things are said to be somewhat dicey.

    lol, I just realized that tonight is pretty much the end of the winter meetings. Rule 5 tomorrow, but teams start going home tonight. Baseball may want to address this and try to liven this thing up in the years ahead.

    Lance Lynn gets a 3 yr 30M deal from the Rangers. FA pitching market is getting close to settled.

    Reds interested in a possible deal for the Jays’ Marcus Stroman.
    -----------------
    Once again, connecting dots, saving $6.25M cash would almost pay for Stroman in 2019.

    This may kill the deal with us actually. The Reds just acquired a pitcher for the back of the rotation making $10M next season and are said to now be focusing on a front of the rotation starter. Considering that Alex Wood is a back of the rotation starter that is set to make $10M next year, this is not great news.

    I hear ya. I’ve only been a few times and mostly when I was like 18 and dumb. I did however end up at Sams Hafbrau last year after a long day of drinking and found myself at the perfectly placed ATM more than once.
