He has been saying all along that he wants to stay in LA. I don't see LA letting him get away.

Price got 7 years, $217 million from the BoSox, so the bidding starts there for Greinke, methinks.

He's good right now, but I won't shed a tear if he goes. I think he will only be good for another 3 years maybe and then he'll drop off. Not sure if he's worth 30 mil though.

If he is the difference between a WS title or not how much is that worth?

He might get the same deal as Price. But, the Price deal is crazy. 100% differed and a 3 year option.

He alone won't be the difference....he would be just part of the equation. If they sign him....along with Kersh and hopefully Ryu coming back would be a good start to the season. They'll still need to drop coin at the break to grab another solid starter for the second half and a WS run IMO.

Over $1 million per game to pitch.
$11 warm 12 oz beers just went up to $15.

Can you imagine, $30 million/year and you work once every 5 days? :D

What kills me is that TV deals drive these salaries up, but they still raise the damned concession prices :thumbsdown

Just saw that....big loss for the LAD's....

AZ came out of nowhere to sign him. All indications were either the LAD's or SFG.......

What's the difference between missing the playoffs and being eliminated in the first or second round. Sounds like a smart move since the doyers are never going to win a title as constructed.[emoji12]

D backs are looking good if they get another pitcher Honestly.
Goldy and Pollock are some of the best players in the league. Underrated but very good.
Doyers will sign Cueto who is a big waste of money and is probably going to have major injury issues. Dude gets rattled easily.

Fun fact the Angels and DBacks have won a championship more recently than the Dodgers... Just saying.

I was pretty convinced the Giants were gonna get him, but the DBacks made a statement here.

Yeah, the statement was "We will pay you ONE MILLION DOLLARS per game to come play for us." (Assuming they don't make the playoffs)

I would rather have a longer vacation, then the high of making the playoffs only to get blown out in the first round year after year

Goldy and Pollock are better position players than anyone on the Dodgers. Seager is probably their best player, but he only played for a month or so.

If the DBacks get one more good starting pitcher and they escape major injuries they WILL be the team to beat.
Last season they were VERY GOOD defensively and offensively.
FUCK THE DODGERS

I'm not quite seeing the Diamondbacks as a bad team.

They're in a tough division and if you can score runs, you're a decent player or two away - assuming a small WAR improvement - from competing.

They don't need superstars, though they got one in Greinke. Add his W-L record to last season's stats, and they're in the mix
