Let's close that deal with Teo, a 3 yrs + 1 mutual option and $75-82 ish sounds fair for both parts. And let's open some roster spaces/unclog the farm by trading for Tucker!!
The compromise should be a fourth year club option and player option with a buyout. Something like three years 75 million with a 20 million club option with a 7 mill buyout. If the Dodgers pick up the option then Teo could then have the opportunity to opt out himself. That way he’s guaranteed at least some thing in the fourth year. And can also be a free agent if he wants.
Teo's contract starts and stops with Friedman.. offer this man the contract he deserves, he signs. Team is happy, Dave is happy and the fans will be happy! Get it done already!
Ofcourse he is, he is the one making the decisions in front office. We already know Teo himself, the team, Dave and fans want it. So who is holding it up and need to stop dicking around.. it’s his job to figure it out!
@@ivoeenink3860 If Teo has an agent with half a brain he is the one holding it up. Once Soto signed now every team who is still looking for an outfielder will submit an offer sheet to Teo’s agent. There is no way Teo was going to accept any offer the Dodgers submitted before that time. Now he can get teams outbid each other for him. This is what an agent is for. To get his client the most. You get the most by having teams fight over your services. All the teams that missed out on Soto
Man stop you ain’t no GM and Friedman knows what he’s doing, He know more than YOU so fans need to let him do his job, Everybody loves Teo but I’m a DODGERS fan FIRST! You don’t overpay players cuz you love that player. it’s about the TEAM not the BACK of the jersey, And if Teo wants too much than BYE BYE
Friedman needs a serious reality check right now. Teo is the kind of player who doesn't need to be 'handled' (like Puig) or 'pampered' (like Bellinger, ugh) to get the most out of him day-in, day-out. He showed this year what a HARD-WORKING, SELF-MOTIVATED, GOOD CHARACTER guy he truly was both on the field and in that clubhouse. Fact of the matter is, Dodgers don't even get to the WS without Teo helping them get past the Padres in that make-or-break NLDS first! This little "hold-up" sounds like pure ego emanating from Friedman's side and that needs to stop NOW. Fans can see he belongs on the team, players and coaching staff see it as well. Why can't HE??? Absolutely ridiculous...
Hey Dmac. I hope you show Friedman all the messages from Dodgers nation. On how bad the fans want Teo back. And he remembers ticket sales pay salaries!
Dodgers throw some money at the problem and get it done dammit!! Give Teo 3-Years and $20M signing bonus, makes up for the 4th year. He deserves to be rewarded!
Does Nightingale remember that the Dodgers are going to use a six-man rotation next year? Given the current state of the Dodgers starting pitchers why wouldn't having Buehler make sense?
I love Buehler and hope he remains a Dodger but it doesn’t look good. Lots of starters at this point. I realize not all of the following are on the Dodgers roster just yet, but they likely will be. Glasnow Yamamoto Snell Ohtani Miller Knack Kershaw Sasaki
@@jafco9 I love Buehler and I’d love it if he’s in our top 6 next year. I really hope he is, I just don’t think we are going to resign him. I hope I’m wrong.
Give him three years at 30 mil and a fourth year team option. Or just 4 years for 25 million. He's earned 100 million based on last year alone. He bet on himself and HE DELIVERED. You reward that kind of production. But all we hear is a non-committal attitude toward Teoscar. Interesting to hear they are looking at Corbin Burnes, that'll cost 200 million. If you are going to go over the threshold by 115%, then go over with gusto. Sign Teoscar!🔥🔥🔥
I feel nada for Arenado. When we wanted him, he chose the Cards. Now that we are a one in two generationally talented team, oh now he wants us? Nah, missed the boat. It’s like the girl that says no to you until she realizes the potential that you’ve realized after school ended. Too late chica.
Im afraid if Teo is looking for 100m+ contract, and Dodgers probably wont reach that far unless Teo gives us discount via deferr or something. What if Dodgers would save that money instead for next year? I hope Teo come back.
I can dig it. Comes with club options for 26/27. Nootbaar’s dream. Next WBC with Team Japan can’t come fast enough for him with the Cards rebuild. As a disappointed Cards fan (ancient property development focused owner), I am thinking about commissioning a satire comic book. Lars explaining to young Japanese fans why he is doomed to be a Cardinal for now and the Cards failings he can not influence. A life lesson about not getting what would be awesome. Complete with product placements and a couple flashbacks.
The Dodgers do so many things right...but NOT everything. You'd think it was a no-brainer to bring back Teoscar, after he contributed so often when the "stars" were cold. But they give a lesser entity like Conforto $17M, then quibble over Teoscar's terms. And you have to remember that this is a team that is happy to turn a generational outfielder into a pretty mediocre shortstop! Sorry, Mookie, but I can't wait to see you set an errors record this coming year. But then - think Seager and Turner - this is a franchise that doesn't seem to understand the importance of an elite shortstop, and now they are showing they don't understand the importance of an elite right-fielder, or the value of a talented, popular, high-contributing left-fielder.
Sign buhler oh we got enough pitching right now That's what they said last season and you got four starters hurt you get four starters hurt this season coming up you going to wish you kept buehler?
Dodgers are done. They’re not signing anybody else. Everybody else are signing the players the Dodgers are “eyeing.” Maybe they should’ve bought instead of looked. Enough with trying to sign TH.
Quit screwing around with our fans favorite. We lost Correy Seager and Trea Turner because you weren't serious about paying then their Wirth and now we still don't have a real Shortstop! Don't make the mistake again and fall short. Also sign Corbin Burns we nay not get Sasaki
MLB Continues to OVERPAY PITCHERS that CAN BARELY PITCH 6 innings especially in consecutive Starts..HIDING the FACT that Major League Baseball as a WHOLE is a POOR PRODUCT..MOST GAMES I can’t Tell if a BATTING LINEUP is MAJOR LEAGUE or MINOR League..THEY HIDE the LACK of Hitting Skills from Players with a MEDIA Narrative; THAT PLAYERS NO LONGER CARE ABOUT Batting Average, Yet , When YOU ASK PLAYERS; To EACH PLAYER ASKED ; THEY CLEARLY CARE ABOUT THEIR Batting Average.. THE MEDIA CLEVERLY GLOSES OVER THIS FACT.. FAR TOO MANY (MINOR) LEAGUE (CALIBER) PLAYERS in the Batting Lineup,DRESSED UP in MAJOR LEAGUE UNIFORMS, which EQUATES INTO A POOR PRODUCT ON THE FEILD.. TOO MANY Average Athletes in MLB….
That is all that is expected anymore. the days of 10-15 complete games by a pitcher is hist-o=ree. Unless the spin rate and high speed is dialed down it will never be that way again. That was in the days before the 28 degree launch angle...
Bob Nightengale looks like Max Muncy dad.
Can’t get it outta ma head.
Brother perhaps??😂
Dmac.should ask Bob next interview 😂😂😂
I see it
@ you are correct Max Muncy older brother 🤣
Please bring Teo back ... Dmac got some funds he been saving for him.
GET TEO, it’s a no brainer! Should have been closed ages ago.

That sounds reasonable!!!
Let's all sell tortas outside Dodger stadium to pay Teo 💁
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
On the toilet LMAO
300k a home regular season game if he looking for 25m.
$25 each
$25 each torta
Im in

Answered all my questions! Good interview! Thanks, DMac! 👍🏼
Love this guy, his knowledge, his feel
DMAC putting some work in. Great interview!
Give that man Teo his flowers the man was the fire starter forsure this postseason 💯 pay the MAN
Bobs chest hair says he’s on Coke at this exact moment
The gold solidifies it.

Teo, Sasaki, and Tanner Scott and we’re going back to back
I might be the only one who wants Arenado on the Dodgers
I want Arrenado too
Not the only one
Hey Dmac. I hope you show Friedman all the messages from Dodgers nation. On how bad the fans want Teo back. And he remembers ticket sales pay salaries!
Unfortunately, Dodger fans will show up in droves, whether they sign Teo or not! And the front office knows this well…
@bethjensen Unfortunately your right. Couldn't hurt to show him how bad Dodgers nation want Teo back. Jus sayin.

Dmac putting in that work
Bob Nightengale aka Tony Soprano after a long night at the Bada Bing!
Nice ceiling
every day that goes by will raise the price on teoscar. blue crew need to step it up or say bye bye
Rough night, Bob?
Bob Nightingale, aka Mr "Ohtani is NOT on a flight to Toronto"
Check out Bob lookin like a used car salesman 😂😂
Dodger fans WANT buehler back
So clutch
We had our chance and they didn’t jump on it. I think Teo’s gone.. 😢
Sign Teo
Hi Doug. Can you confirm the report that Aaron Judge signed up a big endorsement from Butterfinger Candy Bars?
trade Chris Taylor in the St. Louis cardinals for Nolan Arenado in for 3 or 4 years in the Dodgers in 2025
The babe Ruth contract was the worst in Major League baseball history. Ouch Red Sox
How about Luis Robert jr that way you can move Edman to short and Mookie at second
I can dig it. Comes with club options for 26/27.
Nootbaar’s dream. Next WBC with Team Japan can’t come fast enough for him with the Cards rebuild.

Looks like Max Muncy 😂 🤷♂️
Keep an eye on Alex Freeland’s Spring and full season at AAA. May compete for a 2026 spot.

Bullshit it MAKES COMPLETE SENSE
I’m going for the Dodgers in 2015
WB TO THE GIANTS?
Sign buhler oh we got enough pitching right now That's what they said last season and you got four starters hurt you get four starters hurt this season coming up you going to wish you kept buehler?
Arenado to the Padres,Giants or Red Sox?? Doesn't those teams have a third baseman already? 😂😂
👀👀👀
Maybe 1st base??? Hate the Padres but wouldn't be surprised if Japanese guy and Arenado land in SD. Dodgers are still the juggernaut of Baseball.
Bob is a rockstar legend
likely Teo camp asking for more than 3 years and probably not length Blue wants to offee
Nolan Arenado is washed
I thought it Muncy😂😂
Re-sign Hernandez!!!!!
under the radar but not a priority!!! sucks
muncy has made a difference and is a main leader in the clubhouse. He has been a big part of the team for several years!
Goldmember!!!
Dodgers are done. They’re not signing anybody else. Everybody else are signing the players the Dodgers are “eyeing.” Maybe they should’ve bought instead of looked.
Enough with trying to sign TH.
This agent better not ruin it for us
And trade Ryan brasier for roki Sasaki in the Dodgers for 10 years
Booooob!
Quit screwing around with our fans favorite. We lost Correy Seager and Trea Turner because you weren't serious about paying then their Wirth and now we still don't have a real Shortstop! Don't make the mistake again and fall short. Also sign Corbin Burns we nay not get Sasaki
