assuming the 7 245 is no longer bueno. gonna be closer to 260 wouldnt be shocked if it went to 280

Boras played this brilliantly by letting Strasburg sign first. Yankees and Angels have no fallback plan now if they want to add an ace.

It will be 40 M per unless it's a 10+ year deal to reduce AAV for the luxury tax.

I still think the Angels do something asinine and he ends up there. Some have speculated his agent has been using NYY to get the offers up and he has no intention of signing there

Daddy Steinbrenner would already have given him 10 years, 350M.

Stras did him a huge favour here. Really pumped up his market now that he’s the sole bonafide ace left.

If I’m not mistaken Boras represents them both plus Rendon.... that commission cheque from all 3 is going to look real nice.

I am going to guess 1 of the mystery teams is the Astros. I've been puzzled all along why they've basically white flagged this, it made little sense to me that they would not even try to keep him.
