Padre offered $400M over 10 years to Judge A few things; 1: Judge may only produce well for 5 or 6 of those 10 years. 2: I'm surprised his price tag remained what it was given his lackluster playoff performance, I really thought that would have lowered his value. |

6 out of 9 years is still good, you have to live with 2-3 bad years in a long term deal it is part of the risk
No one cared about the playoff production. Lowball him if you want, someone else will pay him

Lowball him if you want, someone else will pay him Yeah, imagine that line-up without him. Won't be any playoffs. Giant holes in that line-up and no protection and ran into some of the best pitching in the AL. Lowball him and he wouldn't even return your call with your final offer. |

Yeah, like people are somewhat underrating how productive he really is. He plays Gold Glove level defense in all 3 OF positions and while he won't hit 60 homeruns again, he is a force that makes the lineup go and you just need people around him to produce. Judge bet on himself and won, it is what every player hopes for It is easy to forget Stanton is a $300M player as well but Yankees got him for a tin of sunflower seeds and chump change. He can still produce when healthy as obvious by his own MVP season but you don't want to have to lean on him |

Nimmo back with the Mets for 8(!!) years and $162 million.
Mets also signed David Robertson for 1 year, $10 million.
Steve Cohen clearly does not care about the tax.

God damn Mets. That’s a gross overpay for Nimmo. He ain’t that good 100% disagree. Great defensive center fielder who creates runs. Best leadoff hitter we've had since Reyes. Look beyond the traditional stats |

Look beyond the traditional stats Well when we have a similar result to last season, we’re gonna have to ask why we aren’t good enough. Overpaying above average guys and keeping them as staples is why dooms the Mets. Need better players. |

I kinda knew that Nimmo was going to be had for 20 million per, but daaaaaamn, 8 years?
If Benintendi is looking for north of 100 mil, the Yankees may as well go with Oswaldo Cabrera in LF and maybe have a go at Michael Brantley. Though injuries and age have diminished his skills, he's still a better option than, say, Aaron Hicks.

Though injuries and age have diminished his skills, he's still a better option than, say, Aaron Hicks. Yeah, I think they go cheaper option of hoping Brantley can still give them 75% of games as Nimmo has basically set the "secondary" OF market and that's not including the $95M Sox also just gave out Tho if you can get Andrew in the $18-$20AAV range over a 5 year deal, you take it but word is he didn't enjoy living in NY and would like to be in St Louis. In an ideal world, if Yankees could take that $27Mill they owe Donaldson and replace it with Correa or Rodon they'd be ecstatic I assume backup option is they go after Reynolds and probably be willing to attach a good prospect or two if Pirates take back either Donaldson or Hicks contract |

Though injuries and age have diminished his skills, he's still a better option than, say, Aaron Hicks. I thought the Yankees should have signed Brantley two years ago. He fits them perfectly as far as his offensive skill set, and he diversifies the lineup. He’d still be fine to sign now but he’s older and coming off injury so hard to predict what you’ll get. I think the play for the Yankees might be Conforto. He wants a one year deal and as a LH bat he should benefit from Yankee Stadium. |

If the Giants can manage Nimmo and Correa, I’ll be okay. We’ll end up with neither tho, and I’ll be salty. well they’re not ending up with Nimmo |

Overpaying above average guys and keeping them as staples is why dooms the Mets. Need better players. and who would you get? cause Judge went back to the Yankees. What you want to get Correa and move McNeil to the outfield? yeah cause that’s a real big f***ing improvement. or if you wanted another outfielder you want Kiermeier? cause he is a downgrade over Nimmo. Like it or not Nimmo was the best option here |

Though injuries and age have diminished his skills, he's still a better option than, say, Aaron Hicks. The Yankees should just trade for Reynolds. Go get him. Outside of the fact that Reynolds killed the Pirates leverage by requesting a trade, I don't think he'd be a tremendous fit in NY, especially considering that Bader is the superior CF'er. Sure, he could play LF, but there are commodities out there that could be had for money... or if Dominguez lives up to his billing as the greatest OF prospect evar (and the Yankees development system doesn't destroy him like they've done with many others), they could play the stopgap game with a Michael Brantley/Giancarlo Stanton/Oswaldo Cabrera/Not Aaron Hicks combination. If I'm trying to make a trade, I'd see what's good with Luis Arraez. Sure, Minnesota f***ed the Yankees sideways with that Donaldson trade, but Arraez is the best hitter in the American League, doesn't strike out at all, and would be an instant RBI opportunity with Judge hitting behind him, plus it doesn't look like Minnesota will be doing anything significant anytime soon despite the relative weakness of the AL Central. The other problem is that the Yankees blew most of their pitching prospects on the Frankie Montases and Andrew Benintendi's of the world. |

Lowball him if you want, someone else will pay him I meant to say 6/10 which, you're correct, isn't bad. I don't think no one cared about is playoff performance. I'm just saying it's a concern if you're paying that much for someone who is going to fold when it matters. Obviously it's wait and see. |

Yeah last thing they want is him turning into Arod hitting 9th in the playoffs. But at least luckily got ARod he put the team on his back for the one ring (there last one) |
