Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

Right?

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

Like, you were still able to move it.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

And when you think about a lot of

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

deals once you get past contract extensions when you get to free agency etc a lot of these deals are hard to move right when you talk about guys that sign the 10 for 300 10 for 350 10 for 400 it's really hard to move a deal like that because teams are like i don't really want to take on bad money at the end when that guy's 36 37 38 and shinsu chu ring a bell

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

And he's a sub 700 OPS and we have to think about eating this money.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

I don't necessarily want that.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

But when you're talking about like a Fernando Tatis Jr.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

type of deal where it's 341 over, I believe that one was 13 years when he signed it and looked like,

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

Great value for both sides at the time.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

That deal is movable.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

But when you talk about on the same roster, Manny Machado, right?

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

If the Padres, for whatever reason, want to say, hey, we want to move Manny Machado, it'd probably be really hard to move him at 350 over 10 or what that value is now prorated.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

14, 340.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

So, yeah, I think the age plays a big role here.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

And I think the Cubs, you're paying for the prime years.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

I think a lot of times that's what teams are thinking about.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

Can we pay for the prime years or entering the prime years, save some money in terms of the arbitration years and those free agency years?

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show
Best of the Cubs: Pete Crow-Armstrong agrees to a long-term extension

Every team needs that guy.

Like the...

budding personality walks into the room and everybody's just like, oh, that's a dude, right?
