Are all the rings that were given out the same? The employees received the same rings as the players?

One of my best friends works for the Cubs. They had to sign a form stating they would never sell the ring and that they can be sued over it or something. Not sure of the exact statement, but it was worded out lawyer stuff that they all had to sign before getting their ring.bobinator said:
Did they gave some of the employees the option of getting a ring or a cash equivalent of a ring? For some people that could potentially really help (paying off debt, down payment for a car, who knows) and it would save them from having to sell it if they could use the money more.
I know in a perfect world everyone that works for the Astros loves the team so much they'd never think of selling it, but in reality some of them are definitely going to sell them.
That's exactly what we thought. Probably just a scare tactic thing that actually has no legal foundation.bobinator said:

Don't forget, the value of the ring is taxable income. For some of the employees, that could be $3,000-$4,000 in extra taxes. I wonder if the Astros will give them a small cash bonus to cover the taxes?

Martin is our 5th-6th best position player? Judge is their MVP candidate.
I think Judge hitting a lot of solo homeruns is more a reflection on the guys batting before him's inability to get on base.Farmer1906 said:friscodick said:BMX Bandit said:
