<t>My thought is this: Crews is the best player in draft. The Bucs should be negotiating with Boras now. If they don't have an agreement for slot money or below, then move on to the kid from Florida (who they should also be negotiating with), or Max Clark.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Skenes may be the mo...

<t>How refreshing it is that when the Bucs play St. Louis now, you can look forward to perhaps winning a series as opposed to hoping that they can win one or at least not get embarrassed 3 or 4 games in a row.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Realize the Cardinals have struggled this year, but they, and the B...

Here's hoping this is the first of several extensions. Keller and Contreras next (hopefully this summer) and Cruz to follow.



Cruz would likely get his next season, but it would be wise to start the negotiation now and show him they want him long term.
