I just can't imagine why he wouldn't just retire. All he will get is a minor league deal.
Unfortunately, the only team(s) usually willing to give guys in this scenario contracts are the Seattle Mariners.... FO may be inclined to give him a Minor League deal, in the hopes they can do another bobblehead or something like that.... I just don't see another team jumping on signing him.
Hmm would they start a King's Court in Tacoma???
...or Tokyo ? Seriously, I would see him going to the JCL if an offer came his way, and of nothing came from MLB.

I can't imagine being worth over $100 MM and opting to live in Japan for 6 months out of the year when you don't have to.

He doesn’t strike me as the type of guy who’s going to just walk away, if offered a viable way back, at a comparatively high level. Ego is a most compelling driver, money be damned.

If he pitches in Japan I will owe you a Kirin.

So, you realize that means if he’s on anyone else’s roster and makes an appearance, even in pre-season, you’re good. ;)

I’ll counter with: if he retires, I’ll stand you to a Manhattan at your Seattle choice of venue.

I don't think he retires but that doesn't mean he is pitching anyplace either. Not being able to play anymore is one thing, actually retiring is another...

Have never been a fan of Felix. As soon as he got good he started acting like a little bitch, culminating with dying his hair like a qtip, all the while cocking his hat like a ghetto rat. "Maybe it's to block out the lights!" somebody on the forum once said. No, it was because he's a dumbass like Fernando Rodney, with a fat stupid cherub face.

And then you nancy SJW's tried claiming i was racist for calling him a ghetto rat! LOL. Liberals.

And his dumbass deserves every bit of what he's getting for being too stupid to try and improve the mental aspect of his approach to hitters years ago when his decline became obvious to everyone but him.

The only redeeming quality Felix had was loyalty to the Mariners which again just shows how stupid he is.

Such a low IQ jab. It would be like saying Vogelbach sucks when he's in a 2 for 10 slump.

The market cap of the entire crypto market is less than 1 US company and the space is the next dot-com type of technology currently with less than 1% worldwide user adoption. I'll be sure not to rub it in the next time it goes back up because thats just what i expect it to do. Up, down, up, down. In the end, there will be way more, way bigger ups than downs, imo.

I HOPE to see it fall to $6,000 again where I'll buy as much more as i possibly can.

If you're looking to get rich in a month, obviously forget it. If you're looking for something to buy now and check again in a couple years, yeah, I wholeheartedly recommend buying bitcoin at any price between 3k and 20k. I know I'll be buying more every opportunity i get, preferably buying on dips. Aside from a fund for trading altcoins I don't sell my bitcoin.

Blockchain is the next technology like email, internet, cell phones. If you're not interested that's cool, but 10 years from now you remember bpj tried to help you.

I dont feel any worse about the drop from 14 to 10k than i did from 20k to 3k.

I've been buying more whenever possible all the way back up. We'll see who's laughing last.
