Given that Hinch and Cora are back, you wonder if they just follow the OG plan and bring in Beltran.

I'd think long and hard about either Ron Washington or Buck if I were them though. Get an experienced guy in the role after Callaway and Rojas.

Mets GM Billy Eppler told Matz’s agent Rob Martin he was upset. Mets thought they’d have a final chance and didn’t get it. Word from Matz camp is he had a late change of heart,

Never a good look when a 4/5 starter spurns you, upsets you, and he wasn't that great to begin with.

He's a good player coming off a bad 2021, I fully expect he'll be back around that .800-950 OPS with 25-35 HR pace next year.

We're pretty strong at the OF position already....but i'd like to get rid of Grichuk, and Comforto would be a nice upgrade.

Yeah, Conforto should be an upgrade over Grichuk. I'm really curious where Seiya Suzuki ends up, a corner outfielder who probably profiles relatively similar to Conforto with better plate discipline and better defense.

When did Steven Matz excrement on someone in public? All I remember is Steve Cohen calling out his agent for not staying true to his word and following that up by spending a quarter of a billion dollars in free agency.

The TCV is 1.2% of his net wealth. He's not worrying about how he's making next month's mortgage payment but it's definitely an amount of money that is on his radar (recognising that it's coming from Mets revenues and not directly from his own bank account).

we signed nimmo. 8 years 162 mil

the contract is very likely longer than what we wanted to sign him to at the beginning of the offseason but i guess that's just a result of some of the longer contracts given out so far. there was no 'good' plan B and we had to get this done

however, coming out at $20 mil AAV makes this deal awesome.
