    Jake Arrieta will be the same age Zach Grienke is now when he becomes a free agent in 2017 with way less mileage on his arm and his agent is scott boras

    Yeah I'm in agreement with both paying that contract, that's nuts, I just know ya offense was hella inconsistent and the secondary pitchers were definitely lacking....still a long offseason so I guess you're right I shouldn't count yall out...

    They'll be straight dodgers #1 prospect is a pitcher named julio urias he's 19 in double a he'll probably be up next season if not definitely in 2017 and they signed one of the best cuban pitchers this past summer he like 18-19 too.They got a lot of young talent

    I can understand David Price going to Boston because of Dave Dumbroski (the former Detroit Tigers GM). I Wouldn't be surprised if this was premeditated.

    But Zach Grenkie going to Arizona?

    Zzzz

    Way too much dough annually imo but whatever

    after watching what lackey did to the cubs in that first game and even the 2nd one (until baez got him) i like this move for the cubs -- i dont look at the money i look at the years when it comes to baseball contracts -- 2 is perfect now the draft pick does hurt but its a lot less than what the other mid tier guys would have cost and yeah hes old as ? but he has aged gracefully and his last 3 or 4 season since TJ surgery indicates he can keep it up

    hes gone 189, 198 and 218 innings the last 3 years

    if he can give the cubs 190+ this year thats exactly what they need to stabilize the pitching staff and even if he regresses a little to something more like a 3.5 something era

    now if the cubs could get lackey, heyward and trade for one of these pitchers (even at the cost of soler as long as they sign heyward) then thats a hell of an offseason

    greinke has been honest in the past about going wherever the money is so its refreshing to see a star player actually tear down the walls of artificiality and say 'hey, i dont give a ? about anything else, just show me the ? money' lmao that being said i remember back in his kc days that there was a big deal about his anxiety issues etc

    i dont know how that ? go but i wonder if it pops up back again since he is the clear cut ace and a whole lot of expectation is going to be put on his shoulders

    as for the dodgers theyre better off bringing someone up instead of throwing crazy money at someone old and bad

    dodgers have a lot of old and bad already
