Speaking of Tucker....Nimmo at 8/$162, what's Tuckers market value?

It certainly seems like Cranes strategy is to sign guys to pre-FA undermarket extensions (Tuve, Bregs, Yed). Crane hasn't and apparently refuses to hand out 5 year deals in free agency. My read is that Tuck and Yed were probably offered the same extension and Tuck turned it down. Seems he may go the way of Springer and Correa and price himself out in free agency. He certainly seems like a $150-$200 million candidate right?

Yes and yes

Tucker was offered and turned it down

He’s destined to be an ex-Astro

If he was a free agent today going into his age 26 season every bit of 10/$300, and if he keeps putting up 30/100 seasons with MVP shares he'll still get that when he's a free agent in 3 years.

I'd have no problem offering him an extension in the same ballpark as Nimmo's deal, to see if he bites. Put him under contract for his three arbitration years plus 5 more.

This is the unfortunate truth.

How many people on that board are actually doing anything? I only recognize a few names.

I don’t know what’s more surprising.

Whitley hitting almost 98 in a mothion capture suit?

Or the fact they have him listed between 220-229 pounds?

Exactly.

He was supposed to be, but it did not happen.

Tucker would get a 8 or 9 year deal Near 300 mill if he was a FA right now.

Kiermaier to Toronto which is prob good news for us cause they were one of the top teams chasing an outfielder. I’d assume they’d be out on Benentendi/Conforto/Brantley now but I guess they still could and use Kiermaier as a defensive replacement

Wanted to get the DAT back up to the top. Still hoping we’re not done.

Some good insight into FODB's mindset this offseason...
