Aye. In fact, if Taylor would have been traded, I would have been making that offer. I have no qualms with the Hinson deal. I also have more money than the Federal Gov't spends.

The only thing I don't like about the Rose deal is the third year. Funny thing is, his worst signing was probably Madlock.
Hinson is solid but 20×6 is a lot.
You can't justify a bad contract by pointing out others.
I'm banking on retirement at that point, and even if he doesn't, it's not like it matters. :40lol:

Seeing how Hammer said he considered to offer 19M/8yrs I don't think the 20M/6yrs offer was really bad at all. I feel I was right in the ballpark for what Hinson deserved to be paid.

I think there are 3 :shifty:

"Deserved" :bushlol:
And just because someone else was willing to shell out a contract like that doesn't make it any less of an overpay.
Like I said, Hinson's solid, but not worth max. I even threw a 14×6 out there knowing I'd be outbid. Production wise, I felt my offer was an overpay. Four years removed from his last .900 OPS season.
I'm not trying to criticize your signing, but the way you justified it.
Re: 2058 Free Agency round 1 signings
I wouldn't be surprised if Rose retires before that deal ends making the 2nd and/or 3rd years irrelevant.
Re: 2058 Free Agency round 1 signings
I wouldn't bet on Rose retiring before year 3.

If Pete Rose can lose money betting on baseball what chance do I have. I was just making light of Rose's real life "history".
