Maybe he's just not particularly good but if the Brewers are shopping Broxton I'd be interested. Still only 28, RH, 11 DRS in CF in 2018, he's not the "answer" for this lineup but I'd buy low #Mets

-Olney says Thor is available

-Rosenthal says the price on Realmuto is IMMENSE

- Kluber or Bauer expected to be moved

The Mets seem to make everything complicated.

Why can't they sign a center fielder (Pollack or Hamilton) two free agent relief pitchers and a FA catcher.

The catcher does not have to be a great hitter in this offense. He needs to be defense first.

We do not need a closer but two setup men.

And a good defensive right handed center fielder.

There are enough FA players out there that the Mets can complete their roster without trading key components.

Hamilton is about to sign with KC but no Hamilton AND a poor offensive catcher would give the Mets a really poor offensive team. 2 zeros before you even get to the ?? in Alonso and Rosario? The ?? how good Nimmo is or isn't. Potentially an awful offensive team if you do that.

But we all know they won't, in fact I read they already said they're out on Machado for some reason (probably an excuse not to spend the $$)


Exactly..


1) They should be in on them, I don't expect them to be, I don't accept it, I therefore will not be happy with whatever they do this offseason unless they win the WS.

2) Don't understand how anyone would not want the Mets to be in on Harper or Machado, unless they were worried that it would preclude the Mets from making other moves in the future

was on board with giving Hamilton a look (I'd like to look into Broxton). But Billy Hamilton 69 wRC+. That would be good for THE WORST offensive player in baseball in 2018. You can't run him out there and a bad offensive catcher and expect to win many games. Brodie said he wants to limit the "if's" this would be the epitome.

Tough call. He only has 1 year left but he IS the kind of guy that likely puts up a big year in a walk year. The Mets apparently have spoken to the Dodgers about him. I wonder if they think he can handle CF? My concern is Mickey doesn't seem ideal for handling personalities like this.

Sherman is right

LAS VEGAS Executives who have spoken to the Mets about Noah Syndergaard echo what Brodie Van Wagenen provided last week: It is going to take an extraordinary return to obtain the righty, with the current sense that it is highly unlikely.

KC, Billy Hamilton have agreed on base pay and are finalizing deal with performance bonuses. Expected to be close to 5M total. Royals need speed in center.

then sign Mccutchen for RF for a couple years.

Not sure if I'd hit Mcneil or Rosario leadoff, but a 2-3-4 of Conforto / Mccutchen / Cano would be real solid. Plus obviously adding Kluber is huge.

Still need to find a CF + C in that arrangement, but rotation would be 100% best in baseball without downgrading the lineup all that much. Though it also adds 25m or so to the budget.

Why would you not want Harper or Machado?

I don't get it... for me, it's Harper/Machado or bust...

I'm annoyed with all the "BVW is aggressive" and "Mets are going for it!" talk...

Sign one of them, never let those signings preclude you from doing anything else. It's how the Yankees and Red Sox operate.

Time to play with the big boys.



how about no...



Care to explain why??


I can give you 350 million reasons, but honestly its just plain old common sense not to spend 50% of your payroll on 1 player.

Most fans in baseball laugh at the Mets for taking on Cano's contract. Who is going to be stupid enough to take on a 36 year old with five years left on a mega contract? Oh, yeah, the Mets

Trading an Ace is about the dumbest thing you can do unless he is old and won't be part of the rebuild. None of this applies to Thor.

McCuthen is done. But otherwise I agree.

Sell high on Nimmo. His numbers last year were way better than his career average in the minors. Could he have turned the corner? Sure. But no deal is without risk and it is much more likely he will regress

If Matz ever puts it all together, he could be an Ace. But he won't be an Ace unless his elbow gets better and allows him to throw the slider. He needs the slider. So, again, it would be selling high.

Also ignores the concept of backloading. You give Harper or Machado 25 million for 29, after the year Frazier, Vargas Lagares are FA. That's 25 million right there. That doesn't include a Wright settlement either. Following 2020 Cespedes 29.5 and Wright (if no settlement) come off as well.

He's not done at all. 2.6 fWAR in 2018, 3.7 in 2017, Steamer projects him again to be an above average regular (2.6).

120 wRC+ was exactly what Conforto posted in 2018 and 2.6 fWAR would have placed him 4th in returning Mets (Nimmo, McNeil Conforto,then McCutch)If you don't like steamer, BR projects a .773 OPS, 20 homers, 9 steals, 26 doubles 2 triples.

Mets should have a $205.9999M payroll in 2019 if they feel there are players available who can make them better... and I'm being nice here, a NY market team should probably be able to afford to pay a little luxury tax every now and then in an effort to bring home a title

Other than Cano - who despite the author in the Capone linked article has a 5 year ~$63M net contract, the Mets have no one on the 2021 payroll as of right now. The only players on the 2020 payroll right now are Cano, Cespedes and Wright.

They can definitely withstand a long-term high $$$ contract.

yet to post a single season of being below league average with the bat. 134 OPS+ for his career, 123 in 2017, 118 in 2018. It all ends at some point but barring a sudden, drastic fall off he figures to again be at least an average MLB LF with upside to be above.
yes & no PJ - we know JDG is likely destined for $25m  
Eric on Li : 12/10/2018 2:01 pm : link
Thor, Conforto, Nimmo, Diaz will all be in arbitration years so those numbers will start to escalate. So it adds up quick. If we estimate those 4 around $50m combined, $25m for JDG, and the net $20m per year for Cano and whatever Matz/Rosario will get in Arb we're easily over $100m for 2021 already. That's where the Cano money will hurt in terms of payroll pain, especially since he may be shot as a player by then.

Then add in a potential Wheeler extension (which they should either do something now along the lines of Carrasco or trade him).

Of course, I didn't say the payroll would be zero for those years, they have to field a team, I said there is no one under contract besides who I mentioned for those years.

And I absolutely stand by my comment that the Mets can 100% afford to add a Harper and or Machado and they 100% should.

and the author in the article was disingenuous and so are you a little.

Cano remaining contract is 5 years 120M.

The Mariners kicked in $20M and took back ~38M in contracts from the Mets.

So yes, it is fair to say Cano is on the Mets books for 5 years around $62M.

Otherwise (if they didn't take Bruce and Swarzak) he wouldn't be a Met.

McCutchen is no longer a good player. I live in the Bay Area and saw him plenty. Major disappointment for the Giants. He gets beaten by fastballs inside and his defense has declined. He is the type of player who starts for a below.500 team.

Or maybe If you have a loaded lineup, you can get by with him as a number 7 hitter. But anyone who signs him to a multi year deal will regret it. One year flyer? Sure. But he is in the Todd Frazier stage of his career. He is the type of guy Sandy would have signed. Lets hope BVW is smarter

The money saved from Bruce + Swarzak is immediate though. In 2021 the Mets are paying Cano $20m. That is what he will count on their payroll. When have they ever represented a player's payroll cost as anything other than the exact number? Their current payroll number still includes Wright for crying out loud.
I know how the Mets will report  
pjcas18 : 12/10/2018 2:54 pm : link
I'm talking about what the contract for Cano effectively costs.

The $38M for Bruce and Swarzak is immediate, I agree, and so is I believe $5M of the $20M for Cano.

So does that make Cano -18? (negative $18M for 2019), since his contract is $25M for the year and it was traded for $43M.

No? So you use common math and deal with effective costs.

Cano effectively costs the Mets $12.2M per year for 5 years.

If the Mets count full Wright and Cespedes in their 2019 salary then they're probably done for the off-season.
Yea I was just responding to the part about 2021 payroll  
Eric on Li : 12/10/2018 3:13 pm : link
I agree in the valuation of the trade the mets only added $63m in Cano - the bulk of that is going to hit in the latter years though since he's basically revenue neutral this year. They probably added more money than people realize in Diaz though. If his arb years end up costing $30m than the $ price won't have been that much saved vs. a FA like Familia (who obviously wouldn't have cost Kelenic).

At the end of the day all of the analysis of that trade basically has boiled down to the same conclusion. Not great value and risky, but makes them better if they genuinely try to go for it now and spend $.

Agreed. Someone had a good point today on twitter, 1 year of Paul Goldschmidt didn't cost all that much in prospects. Why would anybody pay significantly more for 2 years of Realmuto when there are FA who aren't that far off?

Also separately I just realized that if it were last year, with how aggressive he's been BVW may have landed Stanton or Yelich. Timing is everything I guess but that burns a little.

if the Mets signed a top setup man like Miller, maybe a second guy like Joe Kelly as well, then signed Ramos, and M Gonzalez. Might sound like a lot but who knows..

Catcher Ramos, or is this a game to make the Marlins reduce their demands for Realmuto?

Things went horribly wrong if Ramos is the OD catcher

#Mets have discussed trade in which they would land J.T. Realmuto in three-team deal with #Yankees and #Marlins, sources tell The Athletic. Not known if Syndergaard involved. NYM would not part with Syndergaard (three years control) if getting only Realmuto (two years) in return.

That would seem to imply it's Realmuto or Grandal. I really hope it's the latter, I have a very bad feeling any Realmuto trade will make the seattle trade look like small potatoes.

No Shecky is a big defensive cacher guy. He probably was a catcher. Im guessing he simply doesnt like Ramos. Older and offensive minded.
