Rosenthal with more details on the Santana contract.

 

[Urban]

Surprised he only has $750k worth of bonus/buyout money with such a low base salary. Really great deal for the Indians

Awful news.

 

[BimboColesHair]

One of the better buy low deals I can remember the Indians making, considering age, need, and advanced metrics.

Low risk, big boom potential. Needs to be healthy.

The astros have handled this horrendously. They aren’t remorseful for this at all and they’re issuing obligatory apologies.

saying it Doesn’t impact the game during an apology statement. I don’t even think Warriors’ ownership is that cunty

The warriors are that cunty.

btw, extra props for using cunty

So what's the timeline on Clevinger?

 

[macbdog]

Teams were already weary of Clevinger's ability to stay healthy, now this. Hopefully it doesn't kill good trade value.

So what's the timeline on Clevinger?

Just a guess. 4-6 Months. AS Break if lucky.

Just a guess. 4-6 Months. AS Break if lucky.

Woah, what are you basing that on? Most of the speculation I’ve read has him returning within 4-6 weeks.

 

[Kevalier]

Velasquez is the odd man out.

 

[Urban]

4-6 weeks, with 8 weeks being extra cautious seems like the best bet. But we'll have a better idea of timeline once the surgery is completed

 

[Out of the Rafters at the Q]

Just a guess. 4-6 Months. AS Break if lucky.

Woah, what are you basing that on?

 

[BimboColesHair]

Yeah, everything I’m hearing is, if all goes well in surgery, he should be back throwing in 3 or 4 weeks.

They won’t announce a timeline (Brantley still looms large on how they treat injuries through the media), but no one I’ve talked to has said he’s even been ruled out for Opening Day, let alone months out of the season.

 

[JDailey23]

Yep. Maybe surgery, complications, our luck.
Nothing of substance.

 

[Huber.]

If it's a meniscus transplant he's done
