“There’s a popular misconception that any professional baseball player who spends even one day on a major league roster will receive free health care for life. In reality, that’s not true. Instead, what one day of service gives you is the right to buy into a healthcare plan, which isn’t really the same as free, comprehensive coverage. A player’s eligibility for health and pension benefits is tiered, and depends on how much time the player spent on a major league roster, how much service time he accrued, and can even be a matter of which years he played, as different benefits are available to different eras of players. Different plans carry different co-pays and have varying coverage maximums.” https://blogs.fangraphs.com/micah-bowie-player-benefits-and-another-front-in-labors-fight/ -
Yeah I'm a bit concerned that GR's new slider is reportedly 5 mph faster than last years version. Sounds a bit ominous to me. -
How many FA aces did the Braves sign? -
By Bemorewins · Posted
Of corse we need to beat them, along with the Jays, Ray, and Sox because they are all in our division. We actually don't need to be better record wise to secure a wild card birth. But the Rangers, Braves, and Dodgers are all much better than the Yankees IMO. -

IMO, that is not the best use of assets. You are trading short term gains for long term loses. It's okay to do that sometimes, but IMO doing that consistently is not sustainable. Is there something wrong with supplementing a good young team with impact FA signings? (Like Texas) Or at least seeking to extend most of your core players? (Like ATL) It seems that those things have worked out well for them. No? -
Yeah, we'll never have to beat the Yankees. Not like they're in our division or anything. Not like they're the most successful franchise in the sport's history. Not like they're in first place as we speak or anything. Nope we don't need to worry about them. Or, hear me out, we need to beat the Yankees too, and you just want to ignore them because they are proof positive that big splashy acquisitions of "aces" doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of team building.

Put it this way, Elias is not going to spend a lot of money on a move that he thinks is an inefficient use of funds, even if he can. That doesn’t mean he won’t sign anyone to big contracts, but he’ll be highly selective IMO.
