LA2 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Surprised to see the Yankees impatiently trading away so many prospects for yet more power. I guess their hope is that Rizzo and Gallo will park a huge number of home runs in those close RF stands without sacrificing defense.

My guess is they're banging out the details of how much $$ the Nats are sending with Scherzer to SD. If memory serves, he's still owed a hundred million bucks deferred starting next year.

7Mo Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 If the Cubs really do get Alcantara and Vizciano for expiring Rizzo contract, that's a heck of a deal for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcantara has a ton of potential. Vizciano hasn't came close to make use of his talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoelesJoe Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Kyle Schwarber to the Red Sox for Boston’s #19 prospect Aldo Ramirez. The Nationals are unloading everybody but Soto and Teddy Roosevelt tonight, and Teddy’s available for anybody’s top 30 minor leaguer.

phatty Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I think the National did pretty well considering all but Turner is a rental, although the Dodgers jump back to the top with Sherzer personally. Sent Hudson to Padres for Mason Thompson, Jordy Barley Sent Turner and Sherzer to LA for Keibert Ruiz, Josiah Gray, Donovan Casey, Gerardo Carrillo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yark14 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 (edited) One interesting thing with the Sherzer trade: he has 7 years of deferred pay at $15mm/year starting next year. Who is on the hook for that? I assume the Dodgers since he is finishing the contract with them? Edited July 30, 2021 by yark14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the Nats will pay all of it except a pro rated part of the last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not according to the above article: Quote While Scherzer is an impending free agent, he’ll still be owed $15MM every year from 2022-28 in deferrals. The Dodgers are reportedly assuming the entirety of Scherzer’s remaining salary for 2021 (which won’t actually be paid out for seven years). Presumably, the Nationals will remain on the hook for all the deferred payments for time he’s already spent in Washington. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
