But it expires when he's 41!!! Crazy

The Padres are so tired of looking up in the standings at the Dodgers. They're all-in.

Man, I thought the Mets would regret losing deGrom, but signing Verlander and getting Senga cheap is such a good move. As I watch Jed Hoyer sit out this offseason, I'm jealous of the NYM; an owner willing to spend big and a GM willing to make aggressive moves.

I heard yesterday their payroll is projected to be a whopping 345 million which would be a record, and will result in a luxury tax of 71 million. Crazy

Cohen is paying more in luxury tax than like three teams entire payroll. I'm envious.
