Im just noting how big the numbers have gotten in the MLB and that our (MLB fans in general) perception of these numbers is lagging behind reality.


Yep, see my previous post. Everyone talking about how bad the Phillies and Padres are going to have it at the end of all of these 10 year contracts. In 10 years, $25 million will seem like a bargain.

I'm of the belief that enough teams are going to get burned badly by these long deals that a correction will happen eventually. Somewhere in the Giants front office, the phrase "Holy shite, we still have to pay Correa for nine more seasons" will be said in 2027. The Padres will have the same feeling about the Tatis deal (albeit this one is very, very different as this was a young player being extended).

For good players. add in an extension for nola and the phils will probably be paying 80 million for multiple years of little to no production. But that will be a problem for the next GM
