The glitz and fame of being King of New York and being a Yankee legend next to the likes of Babe, Lou, Joe, Mantle vs playing for an insufferable franchise despite it being a beautiful city.

400 mill vs 360 mill. Don’t really matter at that point. I’m sure he will make up for that in other ventures being in New York vs San Diego anyways.

I haven't read too closely on Judge's FA, but was this just shitty "breaking news" reporting, or was he really close to signing with the Giants then something happened where he changed his mind

This is fair. It always seemed like a longshot he would leave the Yanks.

Understandable.

It just makes me laugh that they were the top bidder on two big-name free agents consecutively and struck out both times. No pun intended.

According to Rosenthal the Dodgers are neutered because they don't know if they'll be paying Trevor Bauer or not. Their big off-season signing will be Jonathan Villar or Rich Hill

A report came out that the Dodgers won't go after Correa because they believe their fanbase wouldn't like the acquisition.

He's semi washed, power is gone. Better off keeping Turner

Surprised at that since they are currently 45 mill under tax. Even add in Bauers salary they should have no problem blowing past that like they always do. Unless they are trying to reset it.

Turner looked washed in the playoffs, but as a DH may be worth another year.

I think because they are triple repeat tax offenders they need to be careful or the penalties really spiral or something like that

They are looking to reset.
Makes sense. They will still win 95-100 games and then be in the position to go all in on Ohtani. The bidding war between the dodgers and mets will
be wild.
