MLB 2022-23 FA coming and going

[Bkmtnittany1]

Please use this thread to discuss any MLB FA signings, excluding the Phillies, which should go in the Phillies thread.

Verlander/Mets deal

Two years…. 86 million. For a 40 year old guy. Wow… it really has gotten nuts

Ah, look at what I put in the OP: "Please use this thread to discuss any MLB FA signings, excluding the Phillies, which should go in the Phillies thread."There are multiple posts about Turner's signing in the Phillies thread.

Hey @GrimReaper, how much $$ does Cohen have to throw around?

Congratulations Pirates fans. MLB held the drawing for the #1 pick, and your team won.

Xander Boegarts...11 years/280 milllion to go to the Padres. Red Sox not even close to matching the offer. As a huge Sox guy, sad to see him go, but 11 years is just way to long...

Phillies got hot at the right time and won the pennant, and that was great for them and their fans. However, they lost 14 of 19 to the Mets, who are now better. Phillies still looking up at the Mets.

Not a Phillies or a Mets fan, but which team made the World Series? Next year's team means nothing until they win.

Phillies sign reliever Craig Kimbrel to one year deal. How good do we think he can be?

Mutts CHOKED at the worst time. What’s new?

Before you know it, the 2023 Mets will be beating the Phillies like a drum, just like 2022.

Craig Kimbrel. Mets shaking in their boots

Nice to see my Red Sox signed two stud closers. Problem is, you need to be ahead in the 8th and 9th innings to be able to bring in the closer!! Not much use for a closer when your down 9-1 heading to the 9th!!

Kimbrel may be a shell of what he once was, but you can never have too much pitching depth. Good move by the Phils.
