Okay but the timing of the Pressly trade negotiations says it’s more than just Boras leaking this…
Well damn that sucks. Hopefully they didn’t send much then…
This is my understanding as well. If we are correct, why don’t we just trade Montero to the Marlins or someone for some crap prospect and send...
I believe the entire JV salary counted against the CBT threshold even though we white money from the Mets. Could be wrong though…
From what I’ve read, I’m pretty sure Wemby has a really good work ethic as well. It’s impossible to compare the two but point being is they both...
Yeah, y’all are crazy. I’ll gladly take the risk considering his upside is the best player for the next decade.
My point was you can’t manipulate it specifically for 2025. But yeah this would lower the impact every year. Regarding the deferred money...
Just trading Pressly doesn’t get them under. It seems the consensus is that Caratini would be next.
They would have to trade all three of those guys if Pressly isn't traded. That's not realistic.
Why would Bregman want to take deferred money? At that point, it's not a $26M AAV contract value wise to him.
You can’t structure the deal for an “optimal amount for 2025” in regard to CBT purposes.
They’ve made it pretty clear they don’t want to go over the CBT threshold. If Pressly doesn’t agree to a trade, how is that going to happen if...
How is that becoming more and more obvious? It’s pretty simple - if Pressly doesn’t agree to a trade it isn’t happening.
You shouldn’t believe anything Dana says.
He injured himself running the bases. There is absolutely no way you can make this determination. You can make an argument for telling him not to...
McCullers is never ready so no surprise there. Luis Garcia is concerning though. Don’t understand how he’s not going to be ready.
We just saw what happened when we didn’t get a bye. And like it or not, there’s a good chance the Rangers are going to be right there with us...
His height also prevents him from getting to line drives and ground balls at 2B that someone like Dubon gets.
Yeah, I think they have to be pretty confident Bregman returns to be making this deal. Otherwise they are just creating another hole…with...
Lmao he wouldn’t get a single start there.
