Even Price’s deal landed significant value. He was being paid for last performance, but he still performed well enough to belong in the top 3 of a rotation.
The last very long term deal for an elite talent that really backfired was Pujols. Even Teixeira provided positive WAR. Pujols fell off the planet almost immediately, although his fall was likely more due to shifting than anything else
No. Once he spent 2017 basically out of action, I suggested the only possible reason he would opt out was he simply wanted out of Boston, a scenario I considered very unlikely. I was told repeatedly he was not opting out, which was the same thing I said, but still told so rather aggressively...
Yes, it was an overstatement.
700's point was this: if he opts out, it will be because he is pitching great, and we'd lose by losing a great pitcher, which makes sense, but I still hoped he'd opt out even if he had stayed healthy and pitched great due to his age and liklihood of decline and our ability to use his $30M wisely.
