Ken probably said one less than flattering thing about AJ when he was a player that Ken has long forget about but lives rent free in the front of AJ’s head.
Kyle Tucker is a stud but we’re talking about all star level guys getting 400-500 million now. Vlad had like a 2 war in 2023 and now he’s worth 400-500 million. This is getting absurd and fans are about to get mega priced out. I live near a “bad” team and still don’t go to games since tickets are $60-75 dollars for a good seat. It’s ridiculous
@RedSoxTruther What's ridiculous is the claim by Rosenthal. Tucker's a 4-5 WAR corner OF who'll be 29 his first FA year---so any team is buying into his decline phase. He projects to put up 15 WAR his first five FA seasons, ages 29-33, after which he's likely to fall into the "slow, aging back category" for a couple of years before exiting MLB. Figure him on average for 17-18 WAR overall, with enough punch to push you towards the postseason his first couple of seasons. That's a good player. It's not even a half of 400m player. Do we see a lot of significant contributors in RF who are 34 or older. Of course not. Tucker's good, but he's not good enough to last into his mid-30s as the kind of player he is now. Do you want to pay even 400m for 18 WAR? You wouldn't even want to pay it for Tucker's 10% best outcome. It's absurd.
White Sox trading is the most frightening thing for their fans. Rare does anyone ever question the results but are so tuned in to the process. Getting another team's prospect becomes more suspect when your drafting and development is poor. No trades can ever wipe that out.
Sure as long as they trade away 3 of their top 5 prospects. And the. When the season is over the Mets will sign him in the offseason by outbidding the Yanks again lmao 🤣
Cashman should take a page out of Alex Anthopoulos' book and not make big trades without having deals to lock the player up for a few years...otherwise, don't waste the trade capital...
Dodgers and Yankees should be all in on Tucker. Dude is a stud
Tucker is an offensive machine and 5 star defender. The most underrated player in MLB that deserves the look and opportunity in NY.
He's also terrible in the playoffs, and the Astros did fine without him last year when he missed half of the season.
The Mets 😉
Something about the tension between AJ and Ken feels real and hurts the flow of the show.

AJ’s an insecure bum lol

Every year New York and L.A in the WS. Why do they even play the game and why should fans spend money on this shit show?
I expect a shutdown in the next couple years. Not sustainable at all.
Hahaha that never happens. In most markets you can go to a game for $10 day of the game.
If the costs for a good seat is $75 then I'd be there nightly that's so cheap what are you even talking about 😂

A.J. is a fool and proves it when he speaks
Yankees should replace Soto with Kyle Tucker!!
Sure as long as they trade away 3 of their top 5 prospects. And the. When the season is over the Mets will sign him in the offseason by outbidding the Yanks again lmao 🤣
The end of a dynasty 😢😢
The issue is you lose a year of Altuve and you lose a year of Alvarez
AJ adds nothing to the show.
He was an asshole when he played.
Agree 109 percent, still has jock mentality
even rosenthal is getting sick of his bullshit.
Technically, the vibe of an overgrown high school bully who wishes he could still get away with shoving nerds into lockers isn’t nothing.
He never added anything to a roster
Horton, Cassie, Wicks, Rojas, + another top 20 guy for Tucker. But a 10/400 extention would be required.
Get Tucker to SF!
Can someone explain to me why AJ is rude to Ken? I’m kind of new to FT, but every AJ/Ken interaction I’ve seen it feels terse.
This says it was from a Day ago ......that's confusing.....Fried was ALREADY SIGNED by the Yankees back on Tue. Night!!!
Tucker is worth A TON. Astros would get a haul
Twins are broke b/c owner's son is draining money from it. Someone buy that team and give the city what it deserves
AJ the type of dude to shoulder check a 5th grader during a pick up basketball game.
Max fried just signed with the Yanks
Redsox Owners are FOS and owners have created a total disconnect with fans.. And if fans support this BS you get what you deserve
Cashman should take a page out of Alex Anthopoulos' book and not make big trades without having deals to lock the player up for a few years...otherwise, don't waste the trade capital...
Yankees already got burned by a 1 year rental. Why would they do that again? As much as I like Tucker giving up the farm for 1 year is not worth it.
So I guess the yanks will keep Spencer Jones in the miners until he’s 40??
When Soto got 800m I canceled my tv subscription. The game of billionaires is no fun anymore.
How does Soto salary affect what you watch on tv?
Get aj off the show 🤦♂️
Basically Ken has his routine down . He is always politically correct and boring Don't know why he is still on the show
He’s a professional what do you expect
