sure but the Yankees offense is mediocre, he's the best hitter by far and they can't replace him.

oh, I agree. I think it's a team friendly deal if anything considering what sort of value competent SS play provides to a team.

Just that if you want to look at Crawford on a hypothetical Great Mariners team he's probably your 8th or 9th best hitter. If that's the case, his bat is more than good enough. But if the Mariners were in a position where they were still giving 2-3 AAAA/AAA guys 600+ ABs a year then that contract makes less sense for the team (outside of purely value).

Yeah I think it's a good deal he's been great on defense and alright offensively. Plus he was a bright spot last year when their infield options were thin and the alternative was Dylan Moore or Shed Long both hitting below .200.

Kris Bryant being the perfect reminder that it only takes one. Will he get 324/9 on the market next year? Probably not, but part of the team benefit of extending your stars is that you don't have to worry about a bidding war with *spins wheel* the Padres after they magically shed Hosmer and Wil. Should they go and albatross themselves like that again? No. Would I want to bet on Preller showing restraint, especially if this season ends in a sweep or another collapse and his job is on the line? No.

213/7? Wouldn't shock me to see him getting as a FA. Why shouldn't he tell the Yankees they need to pay him more as a premium to avoid getting into a bidding war with an idiot billionaire?

Huh. I didn’t realize Apple TV+ has their own broadcast team for these baseball games. I assumed they were just going to essentially rebroadcast MLB Network’s (or RSN) feed similar to what Amazon does with Thursday Night Football.

The Apple telecasts are produced in conjunction with MLB Network, and they said they'll announce the broadcast teams on a week-by-week basis, so it's not out of the realm of possibility that more MLB Network personalities will appear.
