Popete posted:50 million dollars! To play for someone else! Listen, it was to use those 50 million dollars to try to improve the roster or to pay him to play for St. Louis. There was clearly only one choice there. lol they're paying more to make Arenado go away than so many teams are paying for their entire rosters.

At this point it's 50/50 odds that we don't have a 2022 season.

Best prospect in the deal is apparently #9 in the cards system lol Turns out the Monforts aren’t cheap they’re just cardinal fans

Waino and Yadi ending in a Cards uniform and getting Arenado has made me wake up the house at least twice this week

Make or break time for the "Arenado can't hit away from Coor's" thing I guess. loving Cubs, Rockies literally would have sent them $50M to be able to slot in Arenado at 3B and float KB to LF, in exchange for quantity over quality prospect return. Super cool they couldn't be on it because poor old Tom is broke.

What were Holliday's home/away splits before he came here, because he did some pretty neat stuff anyway

Arenado's career home / away splits wouldn’t trouble me, the Coors Effect isn’t that simple. What would trouble me is the shoulder injury and consequent poor 2020 results, as well as the intact opt-outs

Home/Road splits are weird and a lot of players who don't have a Coor's thing going on hit way better at home, presumably due much in part to the psychological and physical advantages of playing at home vs having to travel. I don't think Arenado is a true 263/322/471 hitter. For reference here are his career slash lines at all the NL Central parks: Busch: .278/.337/.511 Wrigley: .247/.287/.495 GAB: .291/.370/.456 PNC: .269/.310/.358 Miller: .397/.461/.838

Here's a Mike Petriello piece on Arenado and The Coors Effect from a few months back that seems a bit more relevant tonight https://www.mlb.com/rockies/news/nolan-arenado-coors-field-effect-analysis

lmao unless the players absolutely cream ownership in the next CBA there's no way Arenado is opting out of the remaining years on the deal, even if he has a career year.

I swear to God. And I know my favorite team has the worst record since the day I was born, but still, the Rockies have to be the worst run org in baseball. Nothing they do ever makes any loving sense. Edit: and I know the Pirates exist too. But I still think the Rockies are worse. The Rockies actually try to win sometimes. alpha_destroy fucked around with this message at 05:18 on Jan 30, 2021 |

ok, to be honest i said this would never happen because cards ownership is too miserly, but the rockies found a way to make it happen.

Popete posted:Arenado will have a career year in St. Louis and will opt out after the season and the Cardinals will have made $15 millions dollars. Is it just a straight $50m payment? I remember with A-Rod the Rangers were paying a portion every year and Yankees fans got really pissed when he opted out and resigned because it let the Rangers off the hook

Now that the Cardinals picked up Arenado it would be nice if baseball didnt begin in July this year, but I have little hope. Even if they just vaccinate the players the owners are never going to let them play without fans.
