Daniel Kaplan @KaplanSportsBiz · 2h Sports bankers: Steve Cohen ghost haunts Mets sale, SNY could be part of package https://theathletic.com/1617518/2020/0 |

Christopher Soto @SotoC803 With SNY now part of a potential sale someone will certainly come close or maybe even exceed Cohen's original valuation of $2.6B. While its small, I also wouldn't downplay the value of adding the Syracuse and Brooklyn minor league teams. Brooklyn specifically is a cash cow. |
It is being speculated the two minor league teams included are Syracuse and St Lucie.

Yoenis Cespedes is part of a group at Mets camp (Nimmo, Davis, Conforto, others) tracking fly balls right now in the outfield. This is basically the last thing Cespedes needs to do to prove he’s healthy enough to return to games.

Should be noted that the others seem to be getting balls hit that are further away/tougher to track. But Cespedes being involved in this is another big step.

so wouldn't that mean that 3 minor leagues are for sale?
Ha ha, baboom boom, a little Yankee fan humor here. I'll be here all night.

Wait, what? No it's the Mets and 2 minor league teams? ooooohhhhh the Mets are so bad that they are considered the 3rd minor league team!
"PORT ST. LUCIE — J.D. Davis began last season playing third base, but the Mets aborted that plan early because of a combination of factors.
Significant among them was Davis appeared overmatched at the position. Left field became his new home, and he survived but hardly thrived, allowing the Mets to keep a potent right-handed bat in the lineup.
“He needs reps in a game, and he’s going to fail,” DiSarcina said. “His first couple of spring games he might make two or three errors because he is trying something new, trying to incorporate a new technique into his game, and he’s going to have some rough spots, and it’s up to us as an organization to kind of deal with that. I just don’t want him falling back on his old habits of getting too low.”

I hope I'm wrong, but I think his value may be at peak.
J D should get tons of reps at third., especially with Cespedes looming
I hope I'm wrong, but I think his value may be at peak.
It's definitely a possibility with both him and Dom. I kind of like both players, and in the past I have thought that it made sense to try to sell high on guys who exceeded expectations, sometimes they tank (like Gsellman) and sometimes I've been completely wrong (like JDG) - so if the value wasn't there I have no issue holding. You just never know what happens. Alonso could get trampled by Cespedes' horse and either one could end up the every day 1B for 5 years.
Give me the under on Ramos, Conforto, Mcneil and the over on Alonso, Rosario and Cespedes/Davis.

LOL. So sad it's funny:
and he might pay a small premium to never have to deal with Fred and Jeff [Wilpon] ever again.
What about Tony Cingrani if he is healthy?
