maybe thats why theyre keeping sandy around this year, to pay theo a dumptruck of money to fix em next year
from what i understand there are different 'tiers' to the structure of the new mets FO, with cohen at the top, sandy as 'president', and a 'president of baseball operations'??? sort of role underneath that. i think that's a situation where sandy and theo could both be in the FO at the same time
i think theo would fit in very well with the way cohen wants to start running the team, with sandy being an advisor and a voice that resonates with the more 'conservative' end of the moneyball mantra. i hope he considers coming to the mets but if he really needs a year, i think we'll look at him very strongly next year
it feels weird reading about the mets actually having interest in the top/most expensive FA pool
