Did not see this coming. Wonder what the money/years will be. I assume the Dbacks will lose their number 1 pick.

$32.5 M average per year--figured he'd want to beat Price's $31 M a year average.

After I saw Nick's first tweet about it I waited for the correction replacing "D-backs" with Dodgers or Giants, but it never came. Pretty stunned.

And both the Giants and the Dodgers lose out. Nothing can beat that.

Glad we got out from under that deferred salary rock just to jump right back in the hole.

Glad we made a big move, but wow, that's a ton of cash.

We've waited a long time to have this set of circumstances. Whether it works or not, congratulations to all the long loyal members of this board to have something cool like this happen. Yeah way too much money, but the window is NOW, the time to go for it is NOW.
So surprised, and very happy at this news.

I feel like if we get a guy on the cheap like petit and a bullpen arm or two and I think we've got it looked in.

Shadow is in disbelief. Says surprised ownership actually opened up the wallet. I am more surprised by this than the RJ51 signing (take with a grain of salt, I was 13 and didn't know how the world worked).
