The thing you want to avoid is the highest level tax where you
get penalized in the draft. The repeated penalties only affect
the Ricketts bottom line.

Which will, in turn, be rolled back the the payroll.

New TV deal, hotel across the street, houses behind the
bleachers. A lot of ways for the Ricketts to make money outside
of what the have to report as Cubs income.

Unless they sign Machado. So Bryant will be the third baseman

With Russell 99.9% gone, I don't think a Machado signing is that
far-fetched.

I would love it, but I think there is almost no chance of it.

We're arguing the post-mortem while the game is still in the
balance. That's so Cub.

It's not really a post-mortem. I doubt if the questioned
signing will hinge upon what happens in this game.
