    As a Reds fan, the Mike Moustakas contract was really really bad. He hardly ever played, was atrocious when he did, and we had to pay him 22 mil this year not to play for us. Castellanos was good tho

  • @jeffcampbell5755
    @jeffcampbell5755 Před 7 měsíci +8

    Many of the teams did bigger contracts but they were extensions and not free agent contracts. The Stanton contract with the Marlins, Trout with the Angels, and Mookie Betts with the Dodgers are probably the best examples of this but there are many others.

  • @daltonmcguire14

    Castellanos deserved the contract he got with the Reds but Moustakas preformed poorly with the Reds he could not stay healthy and even when he was on the field he didn't preform well at all. This is coming from a Reds Fan

      @MountainFisher Před 7 měsíci

      Right Field dWAR isn't worth that much money. I watched him come up with his minor league roommate Freddie Freeman and Heyward took free agency and I said I think all a pitcher had to do was pitch him inside after getting his jaw broke in 5 or 6 places and he hit scared and poorly. I was attacked by Braves' fan base writers who were such Homers they couldn't see the obvious. What surprised me were the Cubs' scouts who were fooled by that dWAR as well, but word got out, pitch him inside he can't hit there.

  • @Arden2000

    Didnt know the details of the Correa deal before now but thats such a steal for the Twins. 4 separate team options at the end with decreasing salaries each year is something you cant even get away with in OOTP
    Also can't speak for Nats fans since I'm not one, but considering the big storyline of that offseason was whether or not they'd keep Rendon or Strasburg, it probably doesn't sting as much for them knowing the Rendon contract turned out just as awful in LA

Like Jason Heyward probably shouldnt have been signed by the cubs in the first place but similar to now it that was the sign that hey the Cubs organization is actually going for it and ya know they won a WS so it worked and Jason Heyward will be forever grateful for that. I wouldnt have hated the guy but i know Cubs fans and for as much as they can love their players and team they can hate and hate a lot too.
