  1. I think we already have guarantees with him. Probably just timing with everything else goin on… like Sasaki, other signings… etc.

  2. Teo clutched big time this whole postseason. He deserves to stay with the Dodgers. Pay the man.

  3. I guess I’m going to sign him myself. I can defer his money anyways so it shouldn’t be a problem

  4. There must be more to it then that. He’d have already signed if it was that simple. Unless the Dodgers really don’t want to give him the 3rd year for whatever reason.

  5. I doubt this is accurate, otherwise we would have signed him by now. I would expect Teo to want a 4th year, or even a 5th year.

  6. Makes me wonder if the Dodgers don’t really want him back. He’s not asking for the world and it’s kind of taking a long time for just a few million over the qualifying offer.

  7. Omg they can’t be *that* far apart. What the heck is going on. Maybe they end up settling in the $20M-22M range? Very odd situation.

  8. This is Teo’s agent leaking numbers trying to get LA to come up. It’s almost Xmas and he still hasn’t signed, which leads credibility to Vassegh’s report that other teams believe Teo is better in LA than being “the guy” on another team.

  9. 3 year at 22-24 mil for a proven clutch hitter? come on now. Been supporting that deferral as strategic approach but you can’t just defer every signing ‘just because’. That would make us cheaping the shit out of every contract.

  10. Dodgers are calculating the cost of how much more sunflower seeds they have to buy by bringing him back. They’ll make the final offer after that.

    Analytics FTW!

  11. i can see why the dodgers are hesitant. Teo strikes out a lot, but on the flip side he hits the ball hard and makes contact even with a high K%. if his contact rate goes down, then his average goes down and his K’s goes higher and thats risky

  12. what if the only reason they’re waiting is to create roster slots with a trade but the trades aren’t going through as expected? They were trying to dump Lux and Feduccia for Devin Williams, but that didn’t work out.

  13. I can’t imagine a world where the Dodgers don’t pay go for this, which makes me wonder how true it is.
