    The AAV of this is great.  It's gonna hurt at the end, but helps out the luxury tax.
    This is all I care about. Having Bryce Harper at $25M/year for luxury tax purposes? Plenty of room to stay aggressive.
    We'll be 50ish and our daughters will be pushing high school when this ends.  Incredible.

    I don't hate the deal by any stretch.  I mean they are going to fucking hate each other at the end, but the $25ml AAV is as good as it gets.

    Basically, the Comcast/NBCSN RSN deal is in place to pay Bryce Harper before they even do anything else.

    Everything hurts now, I can't imagine 50. I will also take this Harper Time to announce that I might have multiple daughters to be worrying about...

    13 years, 350M, and no opt outs

    13 years?! I guess they really didn't want him to have an opt out...
    Yeah i was surprised to hear the 13 year and no opt clause.  Actually heard it on my way home from work on WMMR: :lol:


    Hoping they sign Keuchel next and we will be good to go this year.

    Yes!
    That is cool news!
    I have been running (or trying) this month and it is not my cardio, but my old man fucking knees.  Also, I am 45 shortly so will be 58-sih, and just about dead.  ;)

    Fuck the DH.....but clearly that played a role in this decision .
    If it wasn't for the DH, you wouldn't have your guy so you can't say fuck it when you've been slurping him for a 3 months
    I will say "Fuck the DH" for ALL OF ETERNITY and you will like it.

    But--yeah, obviously I know that....hence the post you're replying to.

    I opened this can with my 1st post but we are getting ahead of ourselves a bit.  either way I can't see the Angels letting him walk for nothing.  so traded in off season or at deadline in 2020. I think they said they were trying to open talks already to re-sign him.  

    Nice to have a baseball season to look forward to again.  going to be an interesting team.

    He is #34, I suspect he will want and get the same number.

    If Roy was still alive it would be Harper's, right?

    Correct. And please, Doc was here for four seasons. Just because the guy's dead doesn't mean no one ever wears 34 again. Plus, this guy is going to get whatever he wants.

    WITH THAT SAID - I think he wears 7.
