him and then sign him to a $600MM deal. The Dodgers can't trade for him, stay under the CBT, and then pay him $500MM+.
Instead they'll reset the cap, then spend their money more wisely on Tim Anderson and Julio Urias, mix them with the #1 farm system in baseball (Keith Law) and go to the postseason for another 10 years.
We also have a ton of trade capital to go get a Brian Reynolds type.
As a fan if its Shohei I'm all for it, but one of the best front offices in baseball usually makes the right call and I see the price tag as too high.
But we'll see.
