[Recon792]

this aint gonna end well for the dbacks

 

[Enfuego]

If you're Grienke, I don't fault you for wanting a shit ton of money but don't you really want to win a title at some point?

 

[JoeFalls]

the dbacks might not be done, so who knows? but that's right, these mega-contracts don't seem to turn out right most of the time

They won 79 games with no pitching last year.
Top 10 in runs scored and have one of the best players in the game in Goldschmidt.
LaRussa calling the shots and probably more signings to come.
Not a bad place to be. Could be a lot worse.

Exactly

Dodgers are perennial underachievers

And in baseball any team can win the WS (Cubs excluded) and any team can do a 180 from one year to the next

Also, Arizona is a very nice place to live. I'm pretty sure this guy didn't want to go from cali to freezing cold NY

If you really wanted to win a title, would you sign with St. Louis, KC, NYM, Houston or would you sign with Arizona?

He doesn't have that choice and knowing the problems he's had with social anxiety Arizona might be fine with him.
Did anyone think KC would be in back to back World Series 3 or 4 years ago?

 

[NFLTrends]

Thats a good spot for him to be an anchor of an up and coming team. They do have a legitimate shot to win it all, lots of young talent on that team, and good management all around.

Win-win in my book

 

[Greenbacks]

All about the money........Arizona sucks........Dodgers and Giants will always own that division.

Horrible choice of teams Zack!

 

[RenoChazz]

Their minor team is here in Reno, been to a lot of Aces game the past two years. They have a lot of young talent and will be a contender soon.

What do you mean he doesn't have the choice?

He can't take less money to play on one of those teams?

Even if his decision was all about the money (which none of us could possibly know), what is wrong with that?

I'm pretty sure everyone on this forum who works for a living wants to make as much money as they can

 

[Greenbacks]

Obviously Zack is the #1 guy in the rotation....

The other 4 guys are.....Patrick Corbin,Rubby De La Rosa,Robbie Ray and Chase Anderson.

That`s a garbage pitching rotation.

This team goes no where!

 

[Greenbacks]

Giants
Dodgers
Rockies
Padres
Backs

LOL
