Sadly, Pete doesn't warrant the contract he and Boras think he does.

Well reasoned and supported piece; nonetheless, think #s will end up being higher & agree Cubs are his best alt spot — UNLESS K calls for player opt outs after years 3-4 & a 7th yr (player option though possibly club as well) which would make it 99% meaningless except to inflate the potential numbers and save Pete & Boras some face. Nonetheless, if there are earlier player options, then think any 7th yr should incl a 2 way option, if they insist upon that length.

I trust Stearns will make the right decision and not overpay Pete. I think he’d be a good complimentary piece with Soto but Soto has to be the priority

I think the world of Pete. But of what I read is accurate that he is looking for 250 million, if he gets it elsewhere God bless. I'd put all my chips in on Soto who would look good in Corona!
