So Saurez got the same AAV amount that we gave to Cease after deferrals.
-
And they easily can. I said from the start I expected them to sign Tucker to a short term deal and then trade Teo.
-
And laying in the back are the Dodgers who will come over the top to get him *sad noises*
-
Imagine Straw doing all this recruiting and then getting DFA'd for his buddy lol.
-
Feels like the Mets and Jays offers got leaked for the Dodgers to up their last offer. Yes, ive been hurt too many times by that franchise :(
-
I think Its the opposite. The team keeps Straw around and gets rid of someone else to further build into the power of friendship if Tucker signs. If we sign Bo then Straw gets DFA'd lol
-
"Sources told ESPN that the Toronto Blue Jays have also made a long-term offer to Tucker, who is one of the best left-handed hitters in the league."
-
For sure... there are many ways to offset losing Bo on our current roster but the overwhelming consensus feels like we need to finish the offseason with one of Bo/Tucker. Lets hope we will it to fruition.
-
Until Berrios is traded, he has about 50 million reasons + a proven track record as to why he'll start over Ponce. I think its more crazy to assume Berrios is done just because he had a few down months. Spring Training will work itself out so we'll see. Also don't forget about Mr Lauer who was one of the teams best pitchers but just didnt have the right name on the back of his jersey last year.
-
So who is Ponce starting ahead of as things stand? Are we running a 6 man rotation? Okamoto is hard to project because we dont know how his defense will translate to be a full time 3B. From everything I read, seems like he'll get a bunch of starts at 3B, some at 1B/DH and maybe even the corner OF. Thats what I meant by a utility/platoon guy.
-
Signing Ponce as your 6th starter and Okamoto as utility/platoon guy was a luxury... hope getting a player to slot into the top 4 of your lineup can be prioritized. We will find out soon.
-
Report: Mets offer Tucker $50M per year on short-term deal https://thescore.com/mlb/news/3454621
-
Our offense would be worse if we lose Bo and only replace him with Okamoto. I hope you can acknowledge losing the best hitter in baseball hurts the team overall. Thats all im saying. Obviously im ecstatic for the current state of the team to be able to support a 300M+ payroll.
-
At that price point, they should be smart by pivoting to Tucker instead.
-
Getting one of Bo or Tucker is a must. We made some good signings around the edges with Okamoto/Ponce. The meat of the signings came with Cease from the pitching side and now has to be one of Tucker or Bo from the hitting side.
-
He'll take his 300/8 with some of it deferred and like it lol
-
I just got a f***ing notification for Eloy Jimenez. Saw the start and thought it was major news. Please end my refreshing misery so we can focus on what the team will be exactly heading into the season lol
-
It'll be a massive tax bill for 1 year. We got a bunch of guys expiring next year who I think we'll only replace with value deals.
-
Then you go get Bo. Tucker isnt good enough for you to punt on Bo if the contract is reasonable. Whoever commits to a reasonable deal first should be the choice imo.
-
Ya, im still hoping for Bo because I like the lineup flexibility better and because he'll demand a smaller/shorter deal. Dont get me wrong id also be ecstatic with Tucker. Cant wait to see how the dominoes fall, lets hope most of them stay away from the AL East and the Dodgers.
-
Im going to guess Bo gets 7/210 with deferrals. 7/175 or 8/200 present value deal.
-
Hope the Jays demand an answer from Tucker before Bo goes to Boston. Theyre gonna be really desperate to get him now. We cant be left holding our dicks at the end of this. The fun starts now lol
-
Devers can finally go back to 3B... oh wait lol
-
Holy s***... this is exactly what Bo needed. Im scared
