90% of Shesterkin's deal is signing bonus, which is presumably taxed at whatever rate applies to his residency when he collects that, so Texas or Florida or whatever.

Overall, it's still better than it is terrible. But oh, it's so terrible so many times, and everything being remote, there's so many ways to sneak in how terrible things are. It's really mostly though that we've all just gotten too used to and rely on everything being free, people have to find...

Hope everyone has a wonderful day full of non-controversial political discussions :) Merry Christmas!

Yeah. And the crazy part is the Tatis deal adds 7 years and 200m on the offer, less than 30m a season. Instead of that, the team will have to spend probably 150-200m more on him over the course of his career to keep him.

7/150 would have covered his last 3 years too. Taking the salaries he earned, plus say 28m for this year, would be about 70m over those 4 yeses, buying out 3 FA years for 80m. It's not wholly unreasonable, assuming that was like an early offer. Maybe they could have settled for like 7/160 or...

She took a meme, turned it into a podcast to get some fame, and then rug pulled suckers probably to gain enough to retire on and never have to work again. GOAT grifting

I mean, it depends on what you get back. If you don't see Bo as a long-term SS, trying to cash in on him while people still remember 2023 isn't a terrible play.

If everything breaks right for the Libs/NDP, JT gets points for standing up to Trump, etc... MAYBE they can hold the CPC to like 180 or 190 seats. Although in Canada, the difference between 180 and 220 is basically zero. I can't imagine the CPC getting close enough to 50% that it would even be...

Nimmo should be LF and Soto in RF. Marte I'm guessing they pay someone to take.

Freeland shifted out of finance, and resigns from Cabinet https://x.com/cafreeland/status/1868659332285702167 Mildly positions her as someone not always on the same page as JT when they start the leadership race next year.

There's some pretty high quality stuff on YouTube. Some of the documentary style creators are pretty fantastic. Never mind if you like stuff like math and science, or transportation stuff, some pretty good pieces on the platform.

There's deeper problems. You need to set up the housing and support options for those people struggling, and you also need to figure out how to actually get them to go. You can have the social housing available, but there's a portion of people with problems that they wouldn't go. Fining or...

On a pure stats POV, Vlad will absolutely not be worth the 12 year/400m deal he ends up signing. But...

Loperfido as an OF4 I think makes sense. Especially if you bring in a bat-first LF, he can be the defensive replacement. Maybe you get lucky and the bat develops enough to let him play every day.

Montgomery is a decent prospect too. 25 and 54 on the mlb top prospect list. So not like top top tier, but solid prospects still.

I've been willing to give them leeway some other years, but even I'm wearing thin. I don't mind this latest deal. Gimenez is a lot safer 3-4 WAR or more guy, and I've never really trusted that Horwitz will be anything special. Of course, the problem with Gimenez is that he's making a free agent...

They have to be able to grab someone to fill the DH hole. JD Martinez, JD Davis, or someone else like that who can be more reliable, without costing an arm and a leg.

Going for up the middle D. Curious what the return will be. Was 6 war a few years ago, dropped back to being a 3-4 war guy
