.@MikeGarafolo reports that if the #Ravens lock up their playoff seeding by Week 17, expect RGIII to start vs. the #Steelers… even if Pittsburgh needs it to make the playoffs. That would be quite a curveball to the playoff race (tho RGIII has impressed when he’s played).

He’s not going to be the most athletic guard out there, but LSU RG Damien Lewis did a great job of matching power on power against Alabama’s Raekwon Davis and Auburn’s Derrick Brown this year - two future First rounders - and is one of the strongest guards I’ve studied this year

Anthony Rendon agrees to a 7-year, $245 million deal with the Los Angeles Angels, per @JonHeyman pic.twitter.com/8Qntyd6M9y
— Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) December 12, 2019
I'm surprised Anthony Rendon only got $35M a year, even though that is the new record at 3B. I am also surprised he only got $245M total. I am lastly surprised the Nats didn't exceed that offer.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 12, 2019
But it is very clear they don't believe in spending market-setting cash on bats.
Sounds like deferred money was one of the sticking points on the Nationals' negotiation with Anthony Rendon. He made it clear all along he wanted no deferred money. He never got an offer that didn't include deferments.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 12, 2019
I can confirm that Rendon leaving sucks #baseballisabiz
— Chick Hernandez (@MrChickSports) December 12, 2019
If you think about the huge contracts the #Nats have awarded, they all included deferred money. Scherzer, Stras and Corbin were OK with it. Harper and Rendon didn't want it.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 12, 2019
Not the only thing that matters, but the guys who don't mind deferments have signed. Others haven't.
It's time for the Nats to start thinking about locking up Trea Turner and Victor Robles. Juan Soto, a Scott Boras client, has a chance to break records when he eventually hits the market.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 12, 2019
But Turner (CAA) and Robles (Wasserman) might be willing to do pre-FA extensions.
