Ideally the M's sign Soler to a 3 year, 45 million deal. As the writer mentions, back-loaded would be ideal (such as $11 mil first year, $16 mil in 2025, and $18 mil in 2026). Still can play a little RF / LF but probably don't want him out there for more than 20 games).

Then they trade for Arozarena in LF and Paredes at 3B and most would be forgiven. Otherwise, it would be sad if they went and got Tommy Pham for LF. 1 year at $5 million would allow them to keep prospects but actually be short-sighted. -
I hope dipshit owner sells his soul and somehow the M's pull Ohtani out of their ass.

It's still possible for Dipoto to salvage this mess as long as he can go into the $140s. It would take some smart moves.

Fyfmfe, ohtani to Dodgers for 700 mil

For real? JFC that's retarded.PurpleReign said:Fyfmfe, ohtani to Dodgers for 700 mil

I don't understand the idea of paying Ohtani as a 2-way player when the guy has blown his elbow out twice. $70 mil a year is full retard for a DH and 3rd guy in the rotation (when he can actually throw a year from now).

Might be BS, but my sources are telling me M's offered 1 year for $65 mil.

I actually don't doubt it that much. One year at that price would've been weird, but who knows? I believed all along that Stanton would authorize Dipoto to pursue Ohtani but with limits. Had no idea what the limits would be.PurpleReign said:Might be BS, but my sources are telling me M's offered 1 year for $65 mil.
I'd like to think that it was Seattle that bid the price up just to try and make it hurt. -
I just remembered that this gives me some relief from a big mistake I made with my fantasy team. I had Ohtani (hitter only) for $28. He would've been worth freezing at that price had he stayed eligible for our league (American League teams).
For some reason, when he shut it down and sold his couch before the season ended, I impulsively dumped him. I should've just put him on the DL or even sacrificed a bench spot just to keep that option open for next season. Dumb move that I can stop kicking myself for now.
