Cuban for sure

 

[Habsy]

Cuban for sure

Authentic?

 

[GEEMAN]

Authentic?

yes , best chef available

 

[Habsy]

Ok. Deal but you pay for his plane ticket

 

[GrandWazoo]

Authentic?

I got so used to Paseo’s in Seattle thinking that it was what a Cuban sandwich was, that I was so disappointed when I tried Cubans in Miami. Paseo’s was way better than anything I had in Miami.

 

[Habsy]

Padrinos here. Better than Miami.

Caufield signing appears to be imminent. I’m guessing 8 or 9 x $8.5 million, and maybe even a bit higher, per.

hopefully it doesn't piss off Nick but he signed early and salaries have increased since he did

Suzuki is overpaid

 

[Habsy]

Can't go nine years

RDS seems to imply 8 at 60

Sounds about right. $7.5m

 

[lecoqsportif]

That works.

 

[GGpX]

I think it'll be closer to 8 years, $8M AAV.

But the important part is to get term. The AAV isn't as relevant as the term.

Yep

Yeah. That’s why I’m a little sceptical that it’s 7.5X8. That looks more like 4 year money.

Exactly , plus trade clauses dont kick in until 26

That Hughes and Stuzle deals look like gold now

Lock up your stars , they get financial security , team gets cost certainty
