    Too funny, the Mets are becoming the Yankees slowly over time. Kind of reminds me of late 80s, early 90s when all the Mets good players started going to the Yankees like Gooden, Cone, Strawberry, etc. Now if only the Mets could get Bellinger the cypher will be complete.

    Umm… yeah, kind of not a great look to go from we’re winning a championship within five years of ownership, to talking about budgeting for waiver claims. If this was going to be the messaging for this offseason, he probably should’ve just stayed quiet. lol

    It's still early, but, as of right now, we're a sub .500 team.

    Well, it took a little longer than I expected, but of course McNeil is now gone. Stearns really does believe that he is the smartest boy in school.

    Jeff Passan

    Star outfielder Kyle Tucker and the Los Angeles Dodgers are in agreement on a free agent contract, sources tell ESPN.

    Kyle Tucker's four-year, $240 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers includes opt-outs after the second and third seasons, sources tell ESPN.

    An enormous windfall for the best free agent available. And the champs get even better. @ByRobertMurray was on top of the money.

    Wow, this team will be lucky to win 80 games this season.

    $60 million a year for this guy? MLB really is broken at this point.

    They're going to rely on their youngsters to come through. Benge, Williams, McLean, Tong, and Sproat. I said it earlier, this is a sub .500 team. The Dodgers aren't f'n around.

    He's a very good player (other than in 2024), but is moving two players (including him) into positions they've never played before "putting defense first"?

    They obviously had to do something, but I do wonder if Baty or Vientos will become trade bait for a starting pitcher.

    Yeah, they'll try and move at least one of them and the other can DH/1B with Polanco.
