The haunting memories of Papelbon trying to murder him and Nick Pivetta winning Cy Young this year thanks to us trading that crazy bitch was key.

Apparently Mrs. Middleton was second person at last week’s visit in Vegas. Couples had dinner. Secret weapon.

So, *IF* Arenado doesn't opt out after 2021, Harper makes $4M more in 2019, then from 2020 through 2024, Arenado will make $9M more than Harper EACH YEAR, then $6M more in 2025, then $1M more in 2026, then he's a free agent, and we've got Harper for 5 more years, $118M, or $23.6M/year. Arenado makes $47M more than Harper between 2019 and 2016. If we stuck that savings in a drawer, we'd be paying $71M for Harper over his last 5 years.

This is fucking nuts.

Thinking about my three year old son growing up with a true star to watch on this team was admittedly emotional when I first thought about this. I didn’t have that.

This is awesome.

Also, lot of local babies about to be named Bryce or Harper. Dogs too.

I think Harper honestly decided that he wanted the team around him to be good, and that would balance out whatever money he gave up. Amazing. He has instant credibility with any free agent we meet with.

Both my dogs have already been renamed.

Boob and Bitmoji.

Good time, friends. I honestly never had a doubt and I believe most of my posts will reflect that. Maybe now we will realize that the ownership of our teams is elite*. Between what the Sixers have done and what Lurie has created, there is no reason to doubt anymore. We are a great city with great sports owners.

*i can’t really speak to the Flyers. I stopped being a hockey guy a long time ago
