Is this bad for baseball? (Blake Snell to the Dodgers) | Baseball Today

[@nathanealmcbride996]

As a White Sox fan, I don’t mind when another team spends money. I care about my team being mismanaged and unwilling to spend money. A salary cap isn’t the answer. A salary floor is.

[@ahogg5960]

The problem with the salary floor is the players will not accept a cap without a floor and the owners will not accept a floor without a cap So the whole thing is a non starter.

[@AG-fv4yb]

​@ahogg5960 no chance discussions go nowhere, a floor is the answer and a lot of fans are tired of seeing how much teams are making and not reinvesting into the team. 13/30 teams spent at least 50%of their revenue from 2023 on payroll from 2024. 5/30 teams spent 60%of their revenue from 2023. That's a huge problem

Understanding all the parts and pieces of the organization matter is the key to positioning a team for winning.

[@edomarpez1840]

Precisely!! many people only see the players they sign as free agents. The Dodgers succes comes thanks to the investment they do in the organization as a whole, which, btw, they've been doing since the new owners bought the team, it's not a magic wand result

[@14habibs]

[@Sweaty_Dack]

I think alot of peoples problems are with the deferred money and the ability to flex a roster around a superstar making a lower amount then they should so they can still go for more on there plate. Like how they have shohei def. now snell def. and can probably get back teoscar and edman and a handful of vets. I see it as a challenge to get better (braves fan) others see it as the worst thing for sports Idk

[@mxchump]

Remind me who the Rangers spent 1 billion dollars on in 2022 again?

[@4lyeskas]

​@@Sweaty_DackYeah but every team and every player can defer money. Teams and players have been doing it for years. It's not the Dodgers' fault that other players don't want to offer their teams the same flexibility. Plus the Dodgers still get taxed the present-day AAV of the contract AND have to set aside that AAV per year, per player. I do agree tho people just wanna hate when they should see it as a challenge for their own teams to get good.

I love me some Plouffe, but it's a bit disingenuous to say that the Dodgers are in the position they are because of "non-money" reasons on top of their spending, and listing things like their player development, scouting, coaching, et cetera. Those areas are also determined by a team's budget, and the Dodgers are winning there because they are spending more. It's well known how they have the most coaches, how much they're spending on player development, etc. It's not like other teams don't want all of these things, but it's a budget cost they have to weigh against their major league roster -- literally the situation the Cardinals have openly admitted they found themselves in.

Yankees, Mets, Astros and Phillies all had higher payrolls last year. Seems like people get mad because the Dodgers spend their money better than most teams. Although, I will say there probably were not many teams that wanted to give Snell 5 years. That might be the reason he went to the Dodgers.

6:20 here from the future to say Trevor was a prophet to predict extending Tommy Edman (but also I expected it too lol dude is a stud)

[@johndurrer7869]

Stone, Sheehan and Ryan all back in 26

[@brycegreenstein7441]

Trevor said it, the dodgers are just one of the best when it comes to drafting, development, trades, and scouting. Tommy Edman and Kopech, any team could have gotten those guys. And the Dodgers know you have to spend/invest money smartly as well.

[@sohohank832]

Signs with the dodgers AND is friends with Trevor?? Surprised he isn’t automatically considered the best pitcher in baseball with those credentials 😂

[@kyrey5468]

Baseball needs super teams in major markets. Just like the Patriots in New England. Dodgers help viewership a ton!

[@plutohndrx]

Los Angeles Rays (Snell, Glasnow) 😂

[@TheGreyCrayon]

Just had Kiermaier too, but now he's retired.

[@EZee213]

Andrew Friedman.

[@marceloloayza4273]

wait till we sign Adames!

[@southsidecompton9668]

​@@marceloloayza4273fuck no I dont want him

[@favoriteben67_86]

People also forget Evan Phillips was also a ray

[@stephenrichter62]

I was wrong. I thought for sure Snell being a Boras client would mean the Dodger would pass on it. Hope we get the very good Snell for 3 of those years and the very Bad Snell the other two years, in the past the good was followed by the bad followed by the good and so on.

[@KevinHillygus]

What do you think about a salary floor?

[@sladesurfer]

Whats funny is. Before he signed with the Giants last year. He was looking for a longterm deal and no one wanted to offer him the contract. Even the 182 mill right now. Teams didn’t wanna give it to him but all of a sudden Dodgers said ok we’ll give u a long contract. Everyone is up and arms about it. There were plenty of times other Teams could have signed him but they didn’t...Also, Deffered Payment is not exclusive to Dodgers. All MLB teams can do the same,. Actaully deffered payment has been happening for more than 30 yrs. that's why there was a Bobby Bonilla contract.

Brine your turkeys! Dry or wet. I personally prefer the dry method.

[@eshep71]

I think the Jays should offer the largest amount to Soto, but also give him the largest cheque. Ed McMahon him.
