Wow, I mean I could see doing something like this with a top prospect like Jo Adell, but Evan White?

Doubtful Adell would sign that deal ... but it’s worth a try

"The New York Yankees are filing a grievance against Jacoby Ellsbury in order to recoup some of the $26 million still contractually owed to the outfielder, George A. King III of the New York Post reports.

After releasing the 36-year-old on Wednesday, the Yankees will reportedly pursue restitution because Ellsbury used an outside facility during his rehabilitation from multiple injuries that have kept him off the field since 2017."

Screwed up and unsuccessful back surgeries are no freaking joke. Feel for him, that’s horrible.

That Bobby Jenks story is heartbreaking. Glad to see he seems to be doing better now. 

[T.G.]

The Jenks article really gave me a new perspective about who he is...

Anthony Rendon is so under rated/under appreciated.  Only one all star game for him in 7 years but he has fWAR's of:

 

2013: 1.0 (98 games)

2014: 6.4

2015: 1.1 (80 games)

2016 4.3

2017: 6.7

2018: 6.2

2019: 3.5

 

Just turned 29 and a free agent at the end of the year, I wonder what contract he ends up getting.
