Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I guess they'll say there isn't enough time.I think the timing of this was intentional.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Wheeler is more complicated because he has less of a track record. He probably prefers to try to bolster his value with a solid 2019 before signing a multi-year contract.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 LOOK AT ME! I'M TALL, BALD, AND I TAKE TWO YEARS TO RECOVER!I don't really have a good Wheeler imitation.

Guest 41Forever Guests Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I'd almost rather lock up Syndergaard first. I don't want Wheeler to walk, but he had a fantastic half season. There's plenty of time to talk to him.

Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted March 26, 2019 Author Posted March 26, 2019 Wait, why do we feel like there's plenty of time to talk to Wheeler? He's a free agent at the end of this season.
nymr83 Old-Timey Member Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I like Wheeler too, but id rather get stuck paying him market rate in the fall after he proves it for another year. What kind of discount is Wheeler going to give you now versus the chances of injury or ineffectiveness?
Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted March 26, 2019 Author Posted March 26, 2019 I don't know. But you ask, don't you? What if he would do a 3 year deal at $15 per.

nymr83 Old-Timey Member Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Id make them both fair offers, but I cant break the bank on Wheelers track record.
