Nope, just before they offered Soto 750 million apparently.

This reminds me of when they offered Carlos Delgado a 1 year deal at half of what he signed for and said they made an effort.

We all knew what we were signing up for once they signed Shapiro to be president and especially once he hired his buddy from trash Cleveland

I knew there’d be nothing in store for us but shit when they let AA walk.
I just didn’t know how long they could possibly keep this useless trash front office in place since then.

This was always their plan with regards to Guerrero. Been saying it for years.
Nickel and dime Vlad on short term deals for as long as they possibly could, using every CBA tool at their disposal. Then when he's on the cusp of free agency, give him an offer that's low enough that they know Vlad will reject it and they won't have to pay him, but high enough that the front office and ownership can turn to the public, shrug their shoulders and say "oh well, we tried!"

Yeah, a few of us called that shit years, years ago. They were always going to walk these two to free agency without locking them up.
They've given Vladdy no reason to be loyal, and they've helped drive the market insanity that makes it stupid for him to not test free agency. Vladdy isn't getting 700 millie, but if he's a 26 yr old free agent coming off of back to back elite offensive seasons someone is throwing 10/12 x ~40 at him. The time to lock him up in the 300's was after his 22 yr old season before they started fucking with his swing.

Can we get Shatkins to resign? Can we do a non-confidence vote?
