idk, they have to option someone off the 40 man. i'd think the most likely guy would be florimon if it's a position player. or maybe they go kingery/quinn/knapp/florimon/altherr on the bench and designate a reliever.

Wonder how Hoskins will feel about this after the year he had last year?

For all we know, they could have went to Hoskins and he could have said no thanks.

Throw the fade.

I thought this was one of those joke thread bumps until I couldn’t recall another Phil named Kingery.

He's going to be the biggest bargain in 2021-2023. The guy is a star in the making.

My one caution on this deal is that Kingery still hasn't learned to control the strike zone against AAA/MLB pitchers--he has 2 walks in 51 ABs so far this spring. It's hard to learn that in the big leagues, but he is a pretty special talent, apparently.

So since he now here full time what do we do with him? Start him at 3rd full-time over Franco? Make him a full-time OF? I do think it's telling that Franco is shown fading in the back in the pic. HAHAHA

Matt Gelb @MattGelb
Scott Kingery’s deal could be worth as much as $65 million over nine years, according to a source. The club options are $13 million, $14 million and $15 million.

Might be smart to lock up guys like Hoskins and Kingery now before we start going after guys like Harper and Trout. Besides Hoskins who else should we sign long term now?

Think it's a bit early for this kind of thing. He isn't a can't miss prospect.
