Bright side is, they can't say they were tied up dealing with "in-house" contracts when the meetings come around. There are still numerous ways the FO can flail and fail at the Winter Meetings. But at least this excuse is off the table. "We like are team the way it is".

It's a pretty stout rotation, now if we could address the real problems.
Add in Ponce and Gomber as well.

I'm guessing closer to $10M guaranteed with incentives again. Nothing would really surprise me though either way

That's very reasonable considering his production last year and what one might expect going forward.

Now just sign Ozuna and a better starting pitcher.

That's actually pretty decent considering the season he just finished. If he can come close to duplicating, I'd call that a good deal for both sides. BTW, how long does the Yadi and Waino goodbye tour last?

Not even a blip on the payroll.

Mo, you better get someone. Strasburg. Ozuna. Someone.
