    That was an amazing catch! He has a ton of great catches, and that one is one of his best.

    Yeah of all the great plays he's made in the OF, that one may have been his best. Literally saved a walk off homer in extra innings and he timed that perfectly.

    It’s Camden Yards. Even Manny Ramirez robbed home runs there. And even high fives a fan while doing so....

    Rumor is that the Dodgers are working on a 10 year 350/400 extension.

    If Mookie gets that extension with the Dodgers then very good for him!

    Not a good move on the Dodgers' part, IMO, and I'm surprised that they are willing to do that right now, but I'm happy for Mookie that he will get that huge deal.

    Trading him to the Dodgers was always going to bring in the possibility of him signing an extension. No team was better set up to do it.

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    I wonder if he would have signed the extension if there were no pandemic.

    It might be a smart time for them to do it. With the COVID-19 cloud hanging, they might actual get a lower price than he could get later.

    And I do know how absurd that sounds when we're talking that much money...

    I want Mookie for that deal. I understand that my viewpoint is in the minority. I think Mookie is the type of player that will make that contract worthwhile.

    That's a possibility, I guess. I'm thinking the Dodgers could have gotten him for less.

    It makes me think that Sox ownership really didn't have an interest in signing a contract that large. I get the argument, I just disagree with it. Oh well. I wish he signed the extension months ago so that the bandaid could be pulled off all at once.

    At least we'll have actual baseball to talk about real soon. Hasn't been much good stuff to talk about with this team for a long while.

    Yeah, the only bright spot for Sox fans is that it frees up a stack of money to spend on pitching over the next few years.

    350 would feel like a bit of a discount.

    400 not so much.
