 Nationals in September offered Bryce Harper $300 million for 10 years. So it was reported today, well that's the highest offer of any free agent ever and he turned it down. Like people were outraged that he turned it down. First of all he wasn't a free agent. He was the property of the national so it wasn't like he had 29 other teens bidding for him. He wasn't a free agent. That was less than the average annual value of the contract given to Miguel Cabrera and Dejean-Carlo Stanton. You're two weeks away from becoming a free agent where all 30 teams could bid for you. Why would you ever accept that offer? Now you can say, well, if you can't live on $300 million, that's not how these guys think. He has enough money to live now for the rest of his life if he never plays again. He made $20 million a year the last two years. So don't look at him as greedy. He played the game. Do you know that he actually went to college at 16 and put himself in a position to be drafted. This was a plan with Scott Boris all along to test a free agent market when he was 26 years old and he's going to sign a contract with the nationals for $300 million for 10 years. It doesn't make sense. No. You've got to test it. Is it a gamble? Yeah. It's a gamble if all of a sudden people go, oh, he hit $249 million. Yeah, he did hit $249 million. But he had a tremendous on base percentage and the guys are really, really good player. And there are teams out there. I think that will move heaven and earth to get him. I believe he's going to get more than 30 million per year for average annual value. And I don't believe it will be from the Yankees. Despite the fact Boris has opened up that door by saying, well, he'll play first base. Buster only, who will join us at 430, said unequivocally, about a half hour ago on Twitter, he is not signing with the Yankees under no circumstances. Yankees don't want them. So that game is not going to be played according to Buster. But to rip this guy into column greedy, this is all a chess match. Now, the Nationals are playing their version of the chess match because you know what they're saying now? We've got to know if he's going to sign. We can't because Scott Boris historically drags it all the way out to January. And the Nationals then have to keep 30 to 35 million dollars a year away from what they could spend if they wait on Bryce Harper. They've got enough in their outfield with all their young players that they can win without Bryce Harper. And I think the $300 million offer was eye-washed as David Cohen would call it to the Nationals fans. Well, look, we offered them three and he turned it down. I don't think the Nationals wanted back at that kind of number. I agree with you. They knew he was going to say no. Absolutely. And he should say no. Yeah. Has nothing to do with greed, has to do with smart. You've got to test free agency. Especially when you get that close. I mean, the gamblers is your year away and they make you that offer and then you could break your leg and never be the same player. But two weeks away, of course you turn it down.
