I like Alex Wood because he's got a weird, funky delivery and it's fun watching him pitch. He's only two seasons removed from be a solid MOR guy, seems like a good roll of the dice.

I agree. Was never a Kluber guy but I think he’s a decent gamble as well. If I had to guess a most likely outcome I’d say he busts but there’s a high enough probability of him giving quality innings that I’m eager to see where he lands and how he does

damnit I liked Alex Wood! He dominated the Astros at Minute Maid in gm4 of the 2017 WS because he was already so paranoid about sign stealing he changed his up every 5-10 pitches that game.

I liked that dude from his days with the Braves, and rooted for him even when he was on the bad team. Cool signing, hope he has something left in the tank. Now sign Kluber or Paxton and I will be satisfied.

The Cubs are almost certainly going to file that KB and Javy shouldn't get any raise based on their 2020 numbers - if not try to hit them with a pay cut - so that'll be fun.

Arbitration can drop a player's salary by up to 20% but i can't ever remember that happening.

Doesn't arbitration use a comparison of similar players based on a player's stats and awards to determine which side's salary offer/request is closer to the "correct" salary? Does that account for the changes in revenue due to the pandemic?

The Yankees better be doing something else besides just bringing back DJLM. They need starters and bullpen help badly.

I have a feeling that the last 2 years of this deal are going to end up as fake option years that help the luxury tax in the first few years. I'm sure it's still less than he was asking for though.

Maybe he's 10th in hitters? Maybe he sneaks in if we count just the abbreviated season and the one before and get to count the short porch in Yankee stadium? Cause Trout, Soto, Tatis, Acuna, Story, DeGrom, Cole, Bieber, Scherzer, Yelich, Springer, Bregman, Betts, Rendon, Bellinger, Bogaerts is pretty easily ahead of him and I'm pretty sure I can make the case for another half dozen or so players.

Not great.

Signing Kluber in 2021 screams of "we tried" or "look a big name" cause I don't think he has anything left in the tank e: I mean as anything other than a flier. Depending on him to be an important piece and fill a big hole is laughable
