Think it is long overdue.....owners playing hardball.....both pitchers have lowered their demands.....
What are Kimbrel's demands now? No one is giving him 5 and 100. He was shaky in many spots last year, but he would definitely help someone. Sox could use him back.
I heard a 1 year, $12 mil deal. Then he’ll go back to FA and sign the longer deal. No compensation lost then.
Steroid abuser Roger Clemens pulled the no spring training and sign me later stunt a couple of times. Amazing these two more than decent pitchers are still unsigned.
Teams value those picks much more now. Boras isn’t giving any discounts either.Interesting point WinkyDuck - still a head scratcher to me that they aren't playing. Obviously they have FAT bank accounts and its High stakes poker but its a lot of wasted dough .

IF he signs with the Dodgers we can end the season now and just ship the WS Title to LA.
Yup, who cares, them demanding far too much money isn't our problem.A players lifeline to earn all those zero's is not forever. Talented players in basketball and Football Gus Williams and Levian Bell each missed a full year due to unsuccessful negotiations. It's not like Kimbrall and Kuetchel weren't offered a pile of cash.
