Message: [QUOTE="Bayside44, post: 3224519, member: 343"] Still thinking about this Rendon thing... The Rockies just say it and pay Arenado a boatload of money to set the market for 3rd base, basically making sure the Nats and Rendon don't get a deal done last Spring Training. Rendon puts up MVP #s and wins a World Series. Arte Moreno has a team with pitchers that stink, finish 35 games outta first, and decides to bid against himself and spend a quarter of a billion dollars on one guy, instead or Ryu, MadBum, and maybe a Donaldson type with change left over. And now the Rockies realize the Arenado contract, after one year, is an albatross and are open to trading him. Baseball contracts can be really dumb. [/QUOTE]
