All Things 2025-26 Minnesota Twins Off-Season Thread

While your concern for the Díaz family finances is touching, it appears a bit misguided, as Edwin has already pocketed $87.5M in his career, prior to inking the Dodger deal.

They won’t be flipping over the couch cushions anytime soon

I hardly feel bad for them. Just think it's odd. And should be against the rules IMO.

I was joking

Just think it's odd..

They want a ring as @Ope3 said; my point was, you got that kind of cash, a deferment isn’t a big deal, like it would be for mere mortals.

The Dodger contract would go in my generational wealth account.

And should be against the rules IMO.

Agreed. They’re not breaking the rules, do it’s up to MLB to change it.

The Dodgers could afford it all without the deferred salaries. The players are losing money by deferring so much that far out.

The straight up salary sure, but not necessarily the Luxury Taxes & penalties (lose Draft picks) that comes with blowing past the threshold.
