I think this is an insane contract for Vlad. He's not worth this.

Hes worth more than that.

Dude had a monster of a year last year.  Dude is a beast.

Hits for average and power.

lol def not.

They are looking into studies about it and think the inning limits are one reason.  Another reason is everyone throw's straight gas every time. Your arm can only take so much.  Think of Pedro after that AS game.

As a kid this was The Second Greatest Day of the year, after Christmas. 

Not so much as an adult. But its still a good day. Warm weather is on the way. 

You guys have Kyle Tucker now.  Be happy.

@Wo@Wobbie Kent should be in the hall.  Dude was a beast and didn't take shit from Bonds.  He'd have my vote.

Dude is gonna be 280 pounds in 4 years. Good for him, but I don’t think he’s gonna be worth it long term. I think he’s a stud for the next 5-7 though.

I've heard about his weight since he was a rookie.  He's just a big dude. Hes only 26. Hes not as big as Prince Fielder was or Mo Vaughn.

Next 10 years should be good. If he can be productive his last 4 years that would remain to be seen.

Might have some real potential. Late career resurgence until his hip gives out.

If you’re referring to the famous dugout scuffle, that occurred when Kent was berating David Bell after Bell had tried to start a double play instead of just getting the out at first. Kent bobbled the throw, they got no outs and a biggish inning ensued. Bonds stood up for Bell and told Kent to STFU. But, as always, everyone thought it was Bonds being a dick.

but yeah, they were BOTH dicks and one, if not both, should be in the HOF. It’s a shame the voters but as much weight on personality as they do on numbers.

Oh I remember.  Kent didn't take shit from Bonds though.  He was a dick also which is why he didn't care for Bonds. I remember the digs at each other in the locker room. 

You remember the chair Bonds had?  There was an incident over that too.

For the time Kent was an absolute beast of a hitter and got largely overshadowed by having Bonds on his team. Looking at his numbers I will take that back. He doesn't have the longevity of great years like I thought.  Only a 5.

So I stand corrected.  He is NOT a HOFer.
