Teamnasty and madal to bid

Just a friendly heads up. With the signing of Morel and if he gets Velazquez, ggyuppie will be at $140,000,000 by my guess with 2 free agents left to sign. He has two arb3 guys, Victor Robles and Loasaiga. Pretty sure Loasaiga will not get a card which means he gets the minimum for arb3 (4mil) but even if he does he's likely to cost around 4 anyway with his stats. Robles has an OBP of .385 but with injury 5, probably at least 3mil. It all adds up to right around 140mil.

You are too kind. I have similar estimates for ggyppie. I budgeted around $8 million for him in arb costs, so he will either need to dump salary in a trade or lost a FA to the dreaded drug ban. Of course, the arb decisions might also fall his way.
