[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1512795, member: 26283"] My recollection is that the reason Yelich was favored was due to his much more favorable contract. He’s only been paid $17MM for these last two years and is only due $41MM over the next three, including an option the Brewers are utterly assured of picking up. Ozuna only had two years of control left and was paid $21MM for those two. As a Cubs fan, the silver lining on Yelich going to the Brewers is him not going to the Cardinals. What a nightmare that would have been. Yelich takes the Brewers from bad to competitive. He would have taken the Cardinals from good to World Series caliber. [/QUOTE]
