If this is true, I am absolutely livid we didn't sign him.

"$195/yr"
"Wtf?! $195 mil per year?!"
"No, $195 a year."

Haha....I didn't even realize his typo.  But regardless, we *****ed out again.  Cant say I am surprised, but still upset over it.

Hell, there might be a bidding war for Shark now which (going into free agency, I thought he was a sleeper for a one year deal or a three year deal) is crazy.

 

[mr jordan04]

Is it still 'agreed to' at this point, or has he actually signed?

(Greinke)

And I heard 6/$190.

Pulling a deandre Jordan 2.0

Insane.  The fact that a pitcher who had an ERA just a sliver under 5.00 in a contract year might be getting a $100M contract is just insane.

I am praying to the heavens that it is NOT the Giants who give him this contract.

Yea, you're not winning a bidding war with LA that (IMO) you/SF don't even wanna be a part of in the first place

I think they go Leake for sure and if not...IDK.

I think this opens up the aces trade market as well.

I hope you are right.  Because I have read a ton of reports saying Samaraskjdfkafweja is our plan B.....which I hate.

The Greinke deal has about $60 Million deferred so value is about 190M; about 27 M less than David Price #Redsox

 

[danikerhino]

Meh lets get Leake Giants.

Deferred how?
Getting paid for the next 20 years like Bobby Bonilla?

If this is true, I am absolutely livid we didn't sign him.

Livid the Giants didn't spend a little extra to make it happen or livid he didn't accept the Giants offer?
