Holy shit Marc is doing his job more than once in a week😮

Yes but at least his content is fire every time

More than once in two weeks

The Giants’ biggest free agent contract actually went to Arson Judge

He never signed with them

[@bennett597]

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

[@g-magz9502]

as a Red Sox fan id do that David Price contract twice. He helped us win a WS and ill forever be grateful for that.

[@jaycutlerfan666]

The team speech Heyward gave during the rain delay in game 7 back in 2016 was worth the contract. IMO

[@matthewr23]

No it wasn’t, that’s cope. He was atrocious for every single season in the pinstripes.

[@etiennephilippe9302]

To that I guess I would say yes, he helped to win that game, but a better right fielder could have helped to win the three games they lost in that series

[@jeffcampbell5755]

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.

[@officalredux]

My dad went to high school with moustakas lol

[@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

[@RJtheGOD]

Love the vid! I think your next one should be the highest paid player currently on a team and if they are worthy of it.

[@SSC_Chef]

The Cubs is Shonei

[@Kaibat1205]

And that’s why Shohei Ohtani’s 15 year $600 million contract is the greatest in New York Mets history

[@baseballislife3504]

The Dodgers biggest free agent now is Shohei Ohtani with 700 million

[@the_swoletariat1621]

Okay, I had to rewind twice to watch that sick Lorenzo Cain scoop up tbh

[@joshuabrown8134]

I have a feeling that Judge- Benintendi take back to back will make Marc look silly

[@joshx413]

Sweet video! Next you should do largest contracts in general. Whether from free agency, extension, or international.

[@marrzy]

@marc I know it was an entry level contract but what was Kyler Murray’s contract reportedly worth when he signed with the A’s? I remember him having to pay it back

[@kevhead1525]

What made the Heywood contract double bad is everyone was scratching their head before he ever played a game. Oh well. He was a good guy and played a great right field.

[@MountainFisher]

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

[@jacobadrian1115]

And Jerry Reinsdorf plans to cut payroll considerably this season. Got to pay the league's largest and most depressed ticket sale department

[@theschmeez8767]

A’s not paying up to their own players and free agents: Who would have known!!?

[@TheAg2661]

I don’t know what you’re talking about with my Moustakas he didn’t even hit over 10 home runs with the rent, so what’s up?

[@rdspam]

Other than re-signing “free agent” Liriano, who was already with the team, the Pirates’ next largest FA signing was $50 and a pair of new shoes.

[@richardfivem2]

bryan reynolds

[@tkingkehl]

I would pay Alex Gordon any amount of money after his home run in game 1 of the 2015 WS. That shit was the least talked about, biggest WS home run in the past 10 years, still gives me chills when I watch it, haha.

[@MyNameJiff]

Heyward may have gotten a WS for the Cubs but it also crippled the spending for every year after the WS win. Double edged sword right there.

[@luiss.3866]

A World Series was won so who cares

[@texascard]

Make a video rating the Diamondbacks new uniforms

[@xo_Shadow]

1 thing I’ll say about the Stephen Strasberg signing is he at least got a WS ring 💍 with the Nats but it sucks we didn’t get to see him play that much

[@MonkeyKingXiaoMin]

Off-season content is fire

[@loganhanks1866]

Buy or Sell: Shohei Ohtani will sign with the Dodgers and make a great playoff run and hopefully make the World Series but, will lose In the World Series because they chocked every playoff run they ever have.

[@Extinguisher10]

The Mariners didn't make the playoffs with Cano, BUT they almost did 3 times with him on the team.

[@Shortyd17]

Someone didn’t watch Mike Moustakas with the Reds lmaoooo

[@doorkman13]

I feel like the Rangers have 20 or more free agent signings higher than the A’s highest one. Which is crazy. I know the Yankees have probably 50-100.

[@MLBCHATTERBOX]

How’s Mike Trout not the biggest contract for the Angels?

[@bradenmcguire8968]

Saying Mike Moustakas was a good signing for the Reds is hilarious lol. Dude was a dumpster fire with the Reds when he played which was very rare. Great guy but bad player for the Reds.

[@parrotdave5797]

Interesting how many former Royals were on this list.

[@Nati_Matty]

We must’ve been watching different versions of Mike Moustakas for you to say that contract was worth it for the reds

[@michaelpayawal2551]

Hey giraffeneckmark you forgot about Albert Pujols 10 year deal with the Angels

[@leam89]

Rendon contract was slightly more

[@jeffteyrosado9966]

Hayward no no who signs him will regret it

[@rorogonzo7867]

Benitendi played horrendous in 23? Maybe when he went to ny

[@WhiskiDev]

If David Price was a horrible contract and the Red Sox were able to unload that in the Mookie Betts trade, was it one of the worst trades ever?

[@Ripper517]

At my job a lot of my co workers who are Mets fans hate Nimmo I just don’t know why he really good

It was an extension

[@the_speed_attack9345]

So this is not counting extensions got it

[@ryanpoole6743]

considering how much hate steve bartmen got from cubs fans to this day if not for 2016 Heyward would be the most hated person in Cubs history and im a cubs fan i wasnt old enough to remember bartmen so i dont care about that hate but man i wish Heyward was better than he was. 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.

How were the teams sorted though. 😂

Bro the Braves signed free agent Matt Olson for 8 yrs & $168 million… why did u say BJ Upton was the highest FA contract?

[@jaredlyons3940]

The sox have made some dumb signings... the worst by far was Rusney Castillo for 7yr/72.5 mil... to play in the minors. He was trash and that was the worst contract in the history of contracts ever.

[@jakemonaghan8958]

What order is this in

[@SamtheBravesFan]

At the time it did hurt them. They had to trade Kimbrel to San Diego just to get rid of Upton.

Keep us updated on teams signing player

[@leam89]

You can't say the judge contract is going to be worth it after a single season in which he was hurt and won nothing lol

[@logan_2183]

Moustakas was not a good signing for the Reds at all?

[@generallukeproductions]

When you put into perspective that Kris Bryant got 182 for 7 and Marcus Semien got 175 for 7, it makes that contract even worse. One guy was a below average player and the other was an MVP finalist who lead his team to a WS title.

[@ethanbunce261]

Wouldn’t the braves be Matt Olson tho? 22 mil a year

20 mil a year isn't bad for Nimmo. He's not amazing but he's better than a fair amount of the league. I'd go 17-18 a year for him, 20 is about right.

For all the people who think Theo Epstein is God there's the Jason Heyward contract. I was stunned when they gave him that contract. He's the number one reason the Cubs couldn't repeat.
