To bad George will go else where next year. No way giving him a 5 plus year deal is smart. Thats just dumb. If you cant read between the lines there will be alot of this starting lineup gone at the end of this upcomming season and none will return. These players loved Hinch and where here just for him and the fact this team was highly competitive. There is no way these guys will be back after this year. You need a fire sale and hope and pray you get some excellent up and comming players. This is and always will be the out come. You may love this team, thinking this will not happen buy no player wants to be held back to a narrative of cheating. The only players that would stay are already signed long term. Why cant people wrap there heads aroind that? If these players loved Hinch so much they wouldn't have put his ass in a sling.

They're not going to have a fire sale when we're projected to be the 3rd best team in all of baseball next year. If we suck and it looks bad heading into 2021...then maybe.

His contra t extention when they were almost in tears. Yea good observation

And nobody has spoken up to defend him yet either.

That if who and who was not in agreement. It obviously didnt work at home games. There is just coaches named to this thing Beltran is the only Player quote qoute But was he actually a player when towards the end he disnt even play he was on the bench talking to the players pointing out things.

Every single play every single move. They may even under value our guys based on that call. But you cant denie we can still make plays to win. Small ones but big ones for the future. Teams get desperate. IE the Braves. Correa is a perfect fit. SOROKA AMD RILEY for Correa and a small peace easy deal. Sets us up for a couple years.

Correa had already lost half of his due to being a Mary Sue, so he ain't got much left.

Correa had already lost half of his due to being a Mary Sue, so he ain't got much left. But you have to look at the teams who are desperate. The Braves are very desperate. Im not sure what else it would take but the Braves put all there eggs in a basket for Donaldson. They wont get Bryant the Cubs arent stupid. And Arenando is very expensive. So if they add that small price to Correa they would bit. You would have to ask that. Yoi would have to see how desperate that team who wants to win now would do. You may not even be able to get the best value of the players you want. But you can get a said player or two. Not the geoup like everyone else might get. Like 4 to 5 prospects. But you can get two or three. Its not like o this player is no good they know how good he is and can be. They wanna win aswell. They arent stupid. It samantics

So, they "don't want to be held back to a narrative of cheating"...but it's them who cheated. Quit sniffing glue. But whats the best way to get in to the hall? Get away from the team thats tainted. Yuli changed his deal to be a FA next year. Think about it. That 4 unrestricted FAs next year. Hmmm Glue sniffer Yuli was always going to be a free agent next year. They just gave him a raise for his final year.

Hmmm Glue sniffer Yuli was always going to be a free agent next year. They just gave him a raise for his final year. The basic flaw in your argument is that you are using facts and logic. Obviously all the players now want to flee and we will never attract another decent FA because the stain of sign-stealing is a scarlet letter on the franchise. You'd do well to live life on wild suppositions, half-truths, rumor and innuendo. Give in to the dark side.

You'd do well to live life on wild suppositions, half-truths, rumor and innuendo. Give in to the dark side. And this is why go ahead and plan to get young and fast. You gotta start all the way over. If you understand this, no FA will wanna come here and its gonna be very very ruff to rebuild our orginazation from this. Then you would understand get ready and get people who can be ready in a year or less. There are many players out there, that are wasting away. Clint Frazier is one. Jose Martinez was another but to late I guess. Um Austin Riley could be another. Fans loved him at first but kinda down on him. There are atleast three teams that are doing everything they can to win know but guess what? FAs are going a different way. There are trades that can happen at this very moment. But I would only push one. Thats the Braves. I would wait till the deadline on any other one. I would wanna see what Springer does. See if he drives up his value. See what Yuli, Reddick, Grienke and Verlander all do. See what happens. These guys could be lites out, but then again they could be flops. Asking Springer to stay for an Overpriced contract is asinine. He will bolt for FA. At the deadline he Brantley and Reddick would be traded. Get what you can thats young. You might pull off a crazy deal. For the future.

As a fan to wait for this team this long to dominate, they had the talent that cheating wasn't necessary.

Yuli was always going to be a free agent next year. They just gave him a raise for his final year. Pretty sure he had arb years. I may be wrong but I believe Im correct on this. "Gurriel negotiated an additional $300K on top of the $8MM that was originally guaranteed, per Jesse Sanchez of MLB.com (via Twitter).
The new contract is structured as a straight one-year pact, although that doesn’t come with a lesser tax hit as one might think; a person familiar with the contract tells MLBTR that for luxury tax purposes, the termination of the original contract comes with a fee that amounts to an “upcharge” — the size of which covers the gap between his new $8.3MM salary and his previous $9.5MM luxury hit.
The new arrangement provides Gurriel with a slight boost in salary while avoiding any possibility of a contentious hearing that might’ve stemmed from opting into arbitration. The clause stipulating that Gurriel become a free agent at the end of the contract and his previous awards bonus package all carry over to the new deal. He’ll be a free agent next winter."
He's gone next year unless we sign him to a new contract.

He's gone next year unless we sign him to a new contract. Before this deal. He had arb years. Not anymore. They are voided with this deal. This is a deal Yuli and his agent wanted so he can become a FA and sign some where else and get from out the clout of this scandel. He would love to play with his Brother. Its a known fact. So before this deal his new deal for 1yr. He had 2 to 3 more arbitraional years of contract. There was an article that stated as much, when he signed the initial 5 yr pact. He was a minor league freeagent signee.
