God it’s good to be a baseball player with huge guaranteed contracts. If one of my sons turns out to be an amazing running back, I would certainly be proud but might have to ask if they like throwing a baseball better than running a football.

I love Max. As free agents signings go, he has been - parden the pun - MONEY.
Granted 37 at the start is high, but it only took one billionaire to get it there. Even if I had been much, much better than I was - and even though I played long before the money got real big - I sure wish I had worked on it more... I do miss playing...it's been at least 25 years since I last embarrassed myself trying to hold onto the game I love. .

As a long suffering Mets fan, I don't get overly excited about off season acquisitions. Including this one. With Mets track record he will hurt his arm in Spring Training, fall of a curb tomorrow, or something even crazier. I am fully confident that if the Mets had drafted Babe Ruth in his prime he would have promptly stopped hitting home runs the following day.

I don't know. The sheer number of different issues he reportedly experienced last year at different times is certainly pretty concerning.

For the 90 or so innings he did manage to pitch, his numbers were absolutely epic. But he sure seemed delicate.

Yep. Scherzer signed 7yr/$210M contract with the Nats, 1/2 was deferred. The Nats pay him $15M a year until 2027 and the Dodgers pay the last $15M in 2028.

It depends on what the interest rate is on the deferred payments, but in general it's in the team's favor to defer payments. He'll be paid for 2021 work in 2028 dollars, which will be worth less than they were in 2021, AND the team will have seven years to invest that money before they have to pay it to him. |

People who criticize the Mets Bonilla deal and laugh their ass off about it every year on the same day.
How do you tell me you don’t know much about finance without telling me you don’t know much about finance. |
