    Has any other gazillion dollar per year player ever been a free agent this long? I can't recall if any sought-after free agents like this have been unsigned when spring training has already begun. I'm guessing yes but I can't think of any specific cases. 
    JD martinez signed around this time last year.  Markets evolve over time, so really not apples to apples.

    Arrieta, not a gazillion dollar player, but a pretty big name.

    haha.  I'm planning on going as well.  Maybe they can write a song about this idiot actor in chicago.  That story is my favorite thing since Mante Te'o had that girlfriend

    Their new lineup isn't as good as the old shit.  Still nice to be a fan of bands who actually make music instead of just selling t-shirts and trying to be friends with beyonce

    only time I have ever been kicked out of a concert was at Johnny Brenda's during Low Cut Connie.  Was doing jameson shots with the drummer before they went on.  Mangled.  Love that place

    Great spring for shows.  Deer Tick, Jim James, Jason Isbell, Felice Bros, Jeff Tweedy

    Shit is so funny. Philly has simultaneously gone through all the emotions. Want to trade for manny. Want to sign manny. Want to sign either. Want to sign Harper, desperately want to sign Harper, desperately desperately want to sign harper. Fuck Harper.

    fucking thrilled we signed Harper but fuck Harper...Harper doesn’t want to be here. Harper will get the biggest ovation but better hit .300 with 35 home runs.

    all while Carson’s vagina hurts
