All 25 are high? I think most are close and half will be over. Likely the top 10

Not sure I buy 24 lol. Gotta be a typo on their part. Also, didn't Flaherty also accept his QO?
LOL yeah drop the '1' off in that total . Helsley would have a heart attack if someone offered him that offer. !
He sure would sign it quickly before the error was noticed
Agreed. There's no way Helsley is getting >40m aav.

22) Zac Gallen - 2 / 45
I'd do that in a NY minute if S. Gray is dealt.
I'd want a 3d year to compensate for QO draft loss.
Agreed
But we both know BDWJr isn't going to pony up and they won't want to give away that draft pick (even though I would for Gallen).

After this horrendous season, Helsley's value can't possibly be that high. Does anyone think Helsley and/or Gallen would have a reunion with their original team?

I would like to see the Cards look at x-Dodgers pitcher, Dustin May, as a reasonable potential signing. If he doesn't make it as a starter, how about depth in the pen? I don't think he is 30 years old quite yet.
