00:00Let's start with the Red Sox, who signed Walker Buehler to a one-year deal worth 21 million

00:10dollars.

00:11You know, I know he was hurt last year and he was coming off an injury.

00:16He pitched great in the postseason, he pitched great against the Yankees in the World Series.

00:21I tell you, that's going to be a problem for them facing him this year in Boston.

00:27And look, if the Red Sox suck, that's a one-year deal, they can get something for him probably

00:32when you get to the deadline.

00:34So I thought that's a nice move for Boston.

00:36He was clutch in the World Series, he came up big, he pitched fantastic, he was dominant,

00:42and I think that's what teams saw, and I think that's why he was sought after.

00:47It's a big signing for Boston, they're going to love him in Boston, I think, for sure.

00:52I'm kind of surprised that the Mets didn't sign him, considering that I think they're

00:56a little short on arms right now, even though they did bring back Minaya.

01:00Three years, 75 million for Sean Minaya.

01:06God bless him.

01:07I mean, honestly.

01:08I'm sure.

01:09That's a lot of money for a guy who, remember, before last year, and he wasn't even good

01:15all year for the Mets, he was very good in that September and October.

01:19He was ran out of places, he was so bad, Sean Minaya.

01:22So good luck with 75 over the next three.

01:25Young Jock.

01:26He's not worth that kind of money, I don't think at all.

01:29They'll regret that deal.

01:30You know, he was decent in the playoffs, but the rest of the time he wasn't good at all.

01:38I don't get it.

01:39Young Jock has a new home, as he will now go to Arlington, two years, 37 million.

01:44Young Jock, man, he loves just buying them new apartments and new places, man.

01:48That guy moves around a lot.

01:51Jock Peterson.

01:52It's like nobody's business.

01:54He's always on a new team every year.

01:57He's always.

01:58The Pirates haven't made many moves this offseason, but you know one that happens every year.

02:04They got to always bring Kuch back.

02:06Andrew McCutcheon back around again, patrolling center field at PNC.

02:12Now do they do that just to, they know how much the fans love McCutcheon.

02:16So because they're not going to do anything else, they can go to the fans and say, we

02:20got Kuch back.

02:21Look, Kuch is still on the team.

02:23Is that why the Pirates still do that?

02:24Bring Kuch back?

02:25That's the bottom line.

02:26I mean, he's not even, he doesn't really hit that well anymore.

02:29He doesn't do anything, but they love him in Pittsburgh.

02:31So they want him on the team.

02:33I don't have a problem with it, but he's, you know, dropped off significantly as he

02:38gets older.
