Mets and Yankees colluded and agreed not to go after each other's FA. Eppler is a cashman disciple so there will be heavy collusion moving forward.
Am I crazy for thinking that really only helps the Yankees?

Why does Cohen care about the price?

I hear where you're coming from but I think he and Steinbrenner are just on good terms more than anything else. In any event the Mets were focused on deGrom/Verlander when the Judge suitors were establishing themselves so it is what it is.

Not as bad as I thought it be. Thought they’d panic spend at least 250/10.

Contract will still be a disaster, but only on a scale of 7/10 instead of 9/10.

Worst contract of the offseason lol. Dansy is such a mid player it's insane, I was really hoping Atlanta would bring him back at some idiotic price like this

This makes me feel even better about Nimmo's deal. In retrospect the Springer and Realmuto deals were unbelievable value.

What does the JD Martinez deal mean for LA resetting?

Well first we have to see what happens with Bauers appeal. If they get stuck paying him this season then they will need a small salary dump to stay below the tax line. Unless Texas wants to trade for him lol.

I love the fuck you attitude about the tax from Cohen but how long is this sustainable. Mets will be in red by hundreds of millions likely. How many years of that is Cohen willing to go?

Time will tell but I will say this is fun.

It’s still pending the physical though, right? Did the health concern scare off the Giants? The numbers look similar so it’s not like the Mets outbid them.

What a bizarre situation.

I guess the wonder kid Baty is gonna have to wait 12 more years LOL...

Congrats to the Mets for paying the 2nd best 3rd baseman in the East 100 million dollars more than the best 3rd baseman in the East...
