OK.

He'll get per diem. I'm not sure how it works with his player's share of baseball card money and such. Also not sure if he collects service time if he doesn't play.

Not sure moving to another league would work. But yea, unless someone wants to exceed his contract with the Yankees, he's capped.

Thanks, can you take the Sand Cranes with you? They keep attacking my truck.

Who claimed him off waivers?

You eventually conceded you were incorrect about this season. What is different about next season that what is true this season wouldn't be true next season?

I'll disagree on all of the above, based off of what the situation was at the time. Maybe you are just someone that thinks that teams shouldn't ever trade for players at the deadline. I'm of the mindset that you have to give up quality to get quality. A lot of the guys traded at the deadline aren't going to amount to anything in the majors.

I'm having a great time for the record. Why wouldn't it be the case next year? He might be able to double dip if he went to Japan or Korea.

Not sure why I have to mention this again but no one played 100 games in 2020. Y'all want to mention 2021-2022 feel free but 56 out of 60 is fine.

Without the benefit of hindsight, who overpaid?

What's odd is I don't think any team really overpaid at the deadline. Crazy that the O's were subjected to these crazily unfair trade proposals when no one else seemingly was. Almost like that wasn't actually happening. I do think the White Sox were asking too much for Cease but that's a White Sox thing, not an O's thing.

What the O's are paying him is subtracted from what the Yankees are paying him.

The Yankees are paying him. He's not getting all of the Yankee money plus money from the O's. I agree that he's a free agent.

He's on a seven year deal with the Yankees. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/h/hicksaa01.shtml

How does that work?

You do know that the 2020 season was abbreviated right?

Didn't Mullins pick that for the nickname jersey thing they did a few years ago?

Cal? Manny?

It's a mandate from ownership, lengthen the game to increase concessions.

I don't recall the amount but the top rookie finishers get a bonus, it's from the new CBA.

Or he wants that check that comes with it.

I was joking that she wasn't the hot one. Which, IMO Demi Moore in 1984 was a lot hotter.

Pretty sure she married Bruce Willis.

I realize it's just a game being played by others and that it won't significantly impact my life either way. And music.

NP, it hadn't been.
