I don't know, context depends on the actual budget of the team which I'm not sure about.

I bet we offered something like 6 for 125-130.

7/$140

I'd have gone the extra year, and this is also in response to VA's post about how much the Phillies will owe Turner and Harper at the end of their contracts. 10 years ago, no one had a $200 million payroll. The Braves were at $83. If this off season is any indication, 10 years from now $60 million probably won't handcuff a team as the payrolls could very well be well over $300 million for several teams
Losing Dansby won't be as devastating as some are making it out to be, but hindsight being 20/20, not giving Freddie what he asked for was a huge mistake. Especially seeing as what he would likely have gotten this year.

Anybody wonder what the Dodgers are up to? I'm assuming they're holding steady waiting on Machado and Ohtani for next year. Would make sense with all the 1 year deals they're making, as they are usually right in the mix for most of the big FAs.

I would have gone $22 mill for 6 years, or $132 mill, with an $18 mill team option year for year #7.

I wouldn't have gone a dollar higher than $150 over 7 years... and that's a lot. Probably too much.

I would NOT have paid him more than Riley and Olson.
