    Unfortunately this is the day where the teams clear out the non-tender candidates by sending them to other teams who will eventually DFA them. Zack where are you?????

    Isn't the non-tender deadline when Dodgers traded for Bolsinger and Nicasio? Hope they find a couple other players to trade for that we all get mad at that they arent bigger names but end up being useful players

    Buster Olney: .Sources: Turner Ward will be the Dodgers' new hitting coach.

    Was the DBacks hitting coach, also part of that Dodgers-DBacks scuffle hehe

    Not gonna pretend like I know how much a hittin coach can and can't do but, well the DBacks have had very good offenses and had players breakout there, so that's cool?

    Assuming Kapler for one of 1B or 3B, and then maybe an assistant hitting coach being hired, so there's probably two more guys coming

    One major-league executive said he's hearing the Dodgers may give Zack Greinke six years for $210 million, which would be $35 mil per year.

    So 5/170MM is definitely on the table.
    Are the Giants really willing to go this high for a 32yr old?
    CK gonna lay the smackdown when he opts out, 7yrs/275MM :dizzy:

    Kershaw's price probably gonna be hire than that. If Greinke gets 35 per? Inflation of three years? He's gonna want 40 something million per. And when Bryce Harper becomes a free agent at like 26 years old? good god, I don't even want to think about it.
