@Gibsy439on Clearly my opinion carried enough weight for you to comment and keep commenting and yes clearly you are triggered if you keep trying to argue with me about how amazing a terrible movie was ๐๐
@Gibsy439on All the studio ghibli films are better than Marty supreme and those are anime.. never once said I was a film critic. Clearly you got triggered because you like poor quality movies
The Brewers see the lack of supply and high demand in the starting catcher market as an opportunity to get a strong return for Sรกnchez while replacing him with an optionable backup catcher under team control
Cam Newton says people have NO idea how much of a $120 million NFL contract players actually keep. ๐ณ๐ธ
Using Amon-Ra St. Brown's $120 million extension, Cam broke down where the money really goes.
From his $30 million yearly salary:
- $11.1M โ Federal taxes
- $900K โ Agent fees
- $890K โ Jock tax
- $703K โ FICA/Medicare
- $637K โ Michigan state tax
That leaves about $15.7 million before everything else.
Then come the people expecting handouts.

Cam says players also end up paying for luxury suites, tickets, and countless other expenses.
These figures represent the median across thousands of projected outcomes. This graph is a sample of what a graph may look like for these players.
Because Mead has no minor league options remaining, a significant portion of his left-tail (weaker) outcomes result in him falling off the roster and leaving the organization before reaching the end of his team-control years (which would equal negative or zero SV).
Conversely, Early has multiple option years remaining, so in a very high percentage of outcomes he remains in the organization for rest of team control (would stay with org in AAA in left-tail outcomes).
It's very possible that the Red Sox's models project Mead to have a higher upside (right-tail outcomes) than Early and believe he's likely to remain on the roster throughout his remaining years of team control. Because of this Mead may have a higher โmeanโ value (as opposed to median) than Early. BTV uses median outcomes, I believe.
Very deserved promotion, but the timing before the deadline is a nice way to boost his surplus value for the many teams who give heavy weight to age-to-level in their valuation models.
Feels like a very similar move for the #Dodgers acquiring controllable RP Brock Stewart last July who has since struggled with injury.
Halvorsen is younger with more team control (4.5 years) but I anticipate them making similar tweaks to Halvorsen that they made to Stewart:
- Increased breaking ball usage
- Increased usage with more depth on off-speed offering
- Greater FB/CH vertical separation
