yeah, kind of saw this coming after the last couple days

reports were that the A's were looking for a stupid return for Murphy as he's under control 3 more years (and justifiably so)

this only costs $

He'll definitely help make this year's team better and next, and I guess at least you know what you have to work with for the rest of free agency.

Oakland probably wanted Walker or some other stupid package. Sucks.

If Willy catches at least 100 games I’ll like this deal more.e

Please edit title to add extra l in his name. It’s Willson Contreras!

They have so much money and so many redundant players this should be the tip of the iceberg. Let’s see if they’re crying poor afterward.

I do wonder where we turn now (if this happens...rosenthal is rarely wrong though so I'm gonna assume it's true)

this is going to take a chuck of change and put us right up against where the cards wanted to be most likely, in terms of payroll

one of the top SS are out of the picture/not happening

they want a left handed bat and SO reliever Mo said; those are going to have to be smaller Dickerson type deals, or trades

Having a catcher that can hit is a nice feeling
