    Will J.D. break the streak??
    The last five free agents to sign for more than $75M with Boston: David Price, Hanley Ramirez, Pablo Sandoval, Carl Crawford and John Lackey.
    So JD Martinez will try not to have the same fate.

    he wants a ton of money and he might be on the decline plus he's getting older he will have to come down off his high horse if he wants to play ball in 2018

    You do know he was a free agent? Batting in a loaded line up with the tigers and a joke ball park in Arizona - he won’t come close to his number he posted up last year !! Seen this story so many times

    Owners colluding? This contract seems kind of small.

    Maybe so. He's still getting $50 million over two years, and can then opt out. That's pretty good money. I would say maybe the $30 million/per season deals are gone now, but we'll have to wait and see Bryce Harper and Manny Machado next year.

    Fenway does suck. Seats are tiny. At 6`2" 225, I am in traction after a game.
    Not to mention the prices.

    Camden Yards is what the Sox should have built 15 years ago.

    $68,493 every single day for two years. I’d say thats decent for a baseball player. Hopefully he gets other discounts being famous and all.
