Oh, that I didn't know. I figured they were just paying him 30 per.

2015: $10 million

2016: $15 million

2017: $15 million

2018: $15 million

2019: $35 million

2020: $35 million

2021: $35 million

While it looks like Scherzer will be making $35 million per season from 2019-2021, it?s not going to work out that way. Exhale, Nats fans. That total ($105 million) is being deferred without interest, reportedly through 2028. Meanwhile, he?ll receive the remaining $50 million in the form of a signing bonus over the life of the contract.

It's still a LOT of money.

But it isn't close to 30M per for seven years.

Didn't Ubaldo have like 85 pitches? Why replace him now, since Buck didn't want to pinch-hit for him in the 6th?

Especially since he would have been facing the bottom of the Nats lineup, including Scherzer. Could have saved Ondrusek (or whoever) for the 8th.

That's a huge jump in salary!

It's the equivalent go about $27m per. Not so bad.

      Pick your 40 man roster (protect list) for Nov 20th.

      You’re right, he was not optioned in 2022, but he was first optioned September 8, 2021 by the Blue Jays. It’s in the extra rows of latest transactions on his player page: https://www.mlb.com/player/bryan-baker-641329 I use the Roster Resource page on Fangraphs, which shows he’s on his last option this year: https://www.fangraphs.com/roster-resource/depth-charts/orioles I initially didn’t check when he was first optioned, just assumed it was 2022, but turns out it was 2021. Regardless, he’ll be out of options next year.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      Any thoughts on who that “Verlander” like player could be? I would have said Alcantara but he doesn’t have a larger contract and he is hurt. I can’t identify that kind of player out there right now. None of the obvious selling teams have any really good pitchers. Maybe Berrios or Kikuchi if the Jays decide to sell? But Kikuchi isn’t expensive and is Berios really an ace? Sonny Gray? But the Cards are actually slightly over .500. I just can’t seem to find that kind of guy out there.

      I think the Yankees series is very simple. Try to have nobody on base when Judge and Soto come to the plate. Get to there bullpen early. A lot easier said than done.

      What does the Bradish injury really mean?

      By Safelykept · Posted

      and youre persona is to ask or give multiple questions and answers to the same narrative. No quality starts? How bout seven starts with a 1.91 ERA and a whip slightly above one. OK I get it everybody waiting for it blowup, but honestly all things being equal why would be matching Suarez against Suarez so youre criticism of our Saurez is not as good as stat wise the best pitcher in the game so far. And in addition a quality start is some stat from a generation age that nobody pays attention to. No doubt the phillies getting full value for the buck on Saurez (5 mil). were paying league min. I'll take it

      Urias and Santander are slower than Rutschman.  O'Hearn is actually faster than Hays and Mountcastle. At least according to statcast sprint speed which isn't an exact analog to base stealing ability. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/leaderboard/sprint_speed?min_season=2024&max_season=2024&position=&team=BAL&min=10

      Hopefully the O's took notes on the Red Sox exposing Trevino on Sunday night. Anyone not named McCann, Rutschman, and O'hearn - if you get on base, just run.

      Carlos Tavera 2024

      By Just Regular · Posted

      I just read a take on his changeup that loved it - thought it might help him be a "reverse splits" kind of RH middle reliever. Right now the Orioles have a bunch of lefties though should Coulombe end up okay.
