Kershaw is back with the Dodgers, 1yr?

It was reported he was nearing a deal 3 weeks ago, but I haven’t seen it confirmed.

DeGrom to the Rangers, 5/$185 mm.

Rangers have spent a ton of money the past two or so seasons. That’s more years than most of us expected I think.

There is an old saying that has been attributed to Albert Einstein but is likely not his original work. "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result." Wow what an amazingly risky deal. When are the Rangers going to realize that they cannot buy a championship?

How will this affect the Verlander contract? Does he get a similar deal at 40 years old?

No, but he’ll get a higher AAV.   I think the Scherzer deal is his bogey.

No idea.  I haven't had much luck guessing at this stuff over the years.
