Inflated contracts are dumb for owners who can’t afford top market

contracts without all performing at top level efficiency. Dodgers have had a couple of duds, but they’re fine, because their ownership has that level of resources. I think Incle Stevie does too.

Money would be better spent on a few players and overall get more productio

I think it's more the length than the worth. Judge's is too long too.

BB Hokie • 12/11/24 09:26 AM ET
I did not know he had an opt-out clause after 5 years, that's the first

HokieJamie • 12/10/24 08:45 PM ET
