It's weird to shift focus from the Athletics to the Angels as the main contender for the Astros. I dunno how to feel about that.

The Pussy Boss posted:Man, Kershaw owned the A's last night. 7 innings, 4 baserunners, 1 run. Seems like every year he has a few bad starts, or his back acts up, and people start writing him off, and then he just keeps on dominating. He definitely seems to have accepted the reality of his physical decline and is actively adjusting his approach to compensate now. There was a bit of time there where he was being kinda stubborn about it.

Last night's game was the first time they actually managed to at one point have the lead, scoring a single run in the bottom of the first before coughing it back up in the second.

mcmagic posted:He's a FA after next year. Can you give a guy who is hurt as much as he is 350mm? In addition to his injury history, he also has a body type that really doesn't project to age well. Officially, he weighs 282 pounds but he looks heavier than that, and at six-foot-seven and a few weeks shy of 29 years old, he's getting near the point that carrying a lot of extra weight on his frame is going to make compression fracture(s) in his spine a very real possibility and concern. Obviously gently caress ownership and labor should get paid, but if I were a GM, I'd be leery of signing him to anything longer than three or four years, just because of the very valid possibility that his body starts being held together with toothpicks, chewing gum and the blood of the wretched and the damned.

The Yankees already have a similar guy (though not as good as Judge) signed for the next billion years. Also he's by far the most popular player since Jeter and the fanbase will riot if they trade him.

It's a lovely position to be in because he is too good to just let leave, people would get super mad if you trade him, but there are a bunch of red flags about giving him more than like 4 years and if I was him I wouldn't take a deal like that

Judge is like a megastar in NY and no one knows his medical history better than the Yanks. If they didn't want to sign him I imagine that would tank his value and force him to take whatever team offers him the biggest deal. It seems like a scenario where both parties would work to make something happen but I dunno.

What other team is paying him ? The Yankees seem to have some leverage to me

He's gonna play 150+ next year and OPS+ 170 and get a monster deal from... the Angels.

I mean, the Yankees should just fuckin' pay the man. They have the money and he's an icon in NY. Sure, signing him for like 6/210 is gonna be like a 50m overpay given his health and age, but again, you're the loving Yankees.

Dodgers blew it to the notably horrible Oakland A's today, coughing up a run in the 9th and 10th while the offense stranded too many to count.
