    That hurts, coming from a fan base that booed their own team after they overachieved more than their fan could've hoped for and and earlier in the year booed their RoY in his debut.

    That's a lot for Heyward. But I guess by the time contract ends that will be the minimum salary

    I think it's a steal. Basically the ellsbury contract but he's 4 years younger at the time of the contract, especially if he opts out

    I honestly did not think it was possible, but they are making Sox fans look pretty good. Wow!

    What's so funny is that most of the Cardinals fans on there are making references to him leaving STL for the money. Reports are that he was offered 200 million by both the Cardinals and the Nationals. His 8 year deal with the Cubs is 8 years/184 million. The guy left STL foe 16 million less.

    Funnier still.....the Cub fans that think he based his choice on winning, and not betting that he'll get a bigger deal in 3 years.

    Plenty of justification going on both sides. It was just a better deal than other teams offered, for somebody with Heywards potential.

    The Cubs would probably love for him to opt out after 3. Every single team in baseball would sign him to a 3 year $69 million deal

    Cliffs nailed it on the head.

    Redbird fans were going psychotic on Heyward's twitter. Most commonly by calling him a traitor. I mean, the dude never made the choice to even go to STL. He was forced there via a trade for only 1 year.

    Giants get Cueto. 6 years at 130 million. Opt out after 2 years. Value of first 2 is 46 million.

    I like it assuming Cueto takes the opt out. Otherwise not a fan of 6 years.

    If Giants were Yankees they would have given Greinke the 200million he was looking for. Greinke only went to AZ as Giants and D*dgers wouldn't go a 6th year. When you have record ticket prices and still sell out every single game you can afford this signing.

    The rotation could be tops in the NL if Rags can fix Sharks delivery as Giants are sure he can do. Shark wouldn't really work with ChiSox coaches but told Giants during negotiations he wants to work with Rags after seeing what he did with MadBum:

    Rotation:
    1. MadBum
    2. Cueto
    3. Shark
    4. Peavy
    5. Cain
    6th/Long Reliever: Heston

    Plus now they are saying Timmy may come back on a 1 year low money deal to be that 6th emergency starter or a bullpen piece.
