@JeffPassan
Chris Sales deal, if completed, is likely to be in the five-year, $150 million range, league sources tell ESPN.

1h
The three players with upward mobility clauses Mesoraco, Hechavarra and Rajai Davis all went unclaimed. The Mets can now assign them to either the majors or minors.


Davis has said he will retire if he doesn't make the team. Unwilling to go to AAA (so he claims)

Hopefully this means that they are seriously considering breaking camp with Guillorme rather than Hechavarra

Jeff McNeil just hit one of the longest homers at First Data Field Ive seen lately, right down the RF line. Ill probably find that ball the next time I go fishing back there. #Mets #LGM
Should be roughly

what deGrom gets:


Jeff Passan
‏Verified account @JeffPassan

Ace Chris Sale and the Boston Red Sox are in agreement on a five-year contract extension in the $150 million range, pending a physical, league sources tell ESPN. Deal adds to his current contract, covers the 2020-24 seasons. Physical next week. @Ken_Rosenthal had it done first.

Theoretically DeGrom should get slightly less thanks to the extra year of control since he's signed for 2020 but yeah should be pretty close.
Mesoraco  
DanMetroMan : 3/22/2019 3:43 pm : link
Davis and Hech can all be outrighted without any say if the Mets pay them 100,000. Davis of course could opt to retire/not report as he claims he will do.
McNeil, McNeil, McNeil...

Man. There are so many hitters in this lineup to be excited about in 2019.
Vargas really crashing back down to reality, huh?  
PhiPsi125 : 3/22/2019 8:45 pm : link
Sooooo excited to see him on the bump every five days again.

To be fair, he looked good all game expect for a few ABs. Even made some real good hitter look silly.
And Diaz came in and was hit HARD by the bottom of that same lineup. EvenFamilia wasnt sharp until his last pitch.
Shecky how has Diaz looked?  
bhill410 : 3/23/2019 6:44 am : link
I only caught one game and it was one of the so so ones. I am hoping the last couple are anomalies but that trade is an unmitigated disaster if he takes a big step back of those loose bodies in his elbow start barking.
I was at the game actually  
CMicks3110 : 3/23/2019 7:14 am : link
and saw Diaz pitch. There were a couple of smoked balls, a double right off the bat, and then a few softly hit singles. They seemed to be jumping on him early in the count. the inning was not slow, it was boom, hit hit hit hit. His stuff looked pretty much in line with all spring. 95-97 (which I think is down) and slider which didn't look super sharp. A few hits were on his slider.

Familia, despite loading the bases, looked very good. Lets of swings and misses, was throwing harder. Batters did not look comforable against him.
I also think

Nimmo and Conforto are in for good seasons; Guillmore could be a suprise add to the bench as he looks pretty good. I think Lagares shouldn't make the team.
