Disappointing, but not surprising to hear the Phillies not overspending in the international market again. Was hoping they would step up this offseason when a lot of the big guns are forced to sit out. With their large pool, hopefully they can still land some decent guys.

I can’t be the only one rooting for Lazaro “Lazarito” Armenteros to make it to the major leagues, just in hopes to hear him have “Lazaretto” by Jack White as his walk-up music.

Very weird strategy by Phillies if true. There are so many high profile cubans still available and more to come, they could use there financial muscle to buy prospects with the international pool and spend big, especially with the risk of a international draft to come.

How on earth will the Nats ever be able to afford Harper? Give him deferrals til 2389?

LOL! It is tough to imagine. From Harper’s comments, he does seem very interested in getting all he can from the market too. Can you imagine what he will get if he produces even CLOSE to what he did in 2015 for the next three years? I know the first $400 million man has been tossed around, but Harper believes he could do even better.

Ted Lerner is worth $5.2B. Bryce Harper is basically that team’s meal ticket. You don’t let money stand in the way of that. Call Boras right now. If he says 12 years and $400M, you start the paperwork.

Just give Harper the Bobby Bonilla treatment to the extreme. 25 million a year for the next 20 years. Chances are he plays the next 15 and earns 375 million by doing so, then retires and makes the last 125 million during his first 5 years of retirement. Lol it would never happen but what will happen is the man is going to get paid handsomely.
