+1And with Alderson at the helm, he is not going to be overpaying for talent. Just not Sandy's style. Bauer is not a 36mil a year pitcher. Springer is not worth 30 mil a year either. I want to win and am willing to spend money to do so but those asks are insane.
I wouldn’t spend that much for either but at least you know what you would be getting from Springer. Bauer, on the other hand. Could easily go the rest of his career as a 4+ era or you may get lucky and get a 1/2 guy...Keep in mind, if deGrom is here, Bauer will not be the Ace or starting day pitcher. How does that play with his ego?+1
Those amounts are panic buying. Not good for long-term success.
Over spending never seemed to bother Yankee fans or how it effected the balance of baseball in general. I don't see Sandy paying more than what he feels a player is worth. We can all look to the Bronx to see the results of over paying for talent to supplement The New Core 4. Why don't you post on the Dead Zone? Currently on page # 14. LMFAO .What a front running joke. True baseball fans follow and discuss the team from Queens.+1

Yeah...I remember quite well in the years before the Mets came into existence. There were no true baseball fans around here. Strange times.True baseball fans follow and discuss the team from Queens.
There were true fans back then and they became Met fans...Yeah...I remember quite well in the years before the Mets came into existence. There were no true baseball fans around here. Strange times.
Not anyone I knew. Everyone laughed at the Amazins in 1962.There were true fans back then and they became Met fans...
Well, the Yankee fans you speak of usually laughed at everyone. Always easy to be a fan of a team that just wins all the time. You get to act like YOU accomplished something without doing a damn thing...Not anyone I knew. Everyone laughed at the Amazins in 1962.
Many still do.
It's what fans do.Well, the Yankee fans you speak of usually laughed at everyone. Always easy to be a fan of a team that just wins all the time. You get to act like YOU accomplished something without doing a damn thing...
They haven't exactly been doing that for 12 years. San Fran has won it 3 times and the BoSox 2 times in that time span. Again, where do The 3 Amigos go when they want to talk baseball? The Mets threads, lol.Well, the Yankee fans you speak of usually laughed at everyone. Always easy to be a fan of a team that just wins all the time.

Right now the Mets are bidding against themselves for Bauer and Springer. The longer the Mets play this out, the greater the chance of signing either one or both to more favorable deals. The Blue Jays and the Angles are in it, but really don't want to take on such large contracts.You know, Cohen is swinging a big stick on Twitter, talking a big game, I still think he's going to deliver but I know many Mets fans will turn on him if he doesn't pull the trigger on something soon, coming in second on stud UFAs won't go over well. People are done with those days.
Chicken or the egg? Sick of the disingenuous concern, from the opposing camp, OK? Or are you just oblivious to it? I will ALWAYS call them out, so either put me on your ignore list or STFU when it comes to calling me out. You've never called out Yankee fans for coming in this thread and $hitting on our baseball talk? The Dead Zone isn't even worth the read so they camp out in here.And as usual the usual suspects always take this thread to that unnecessary place and fill this thread with usual nonsense that has nothing to do with the Mets.
I guess you ignored me talking about the other side or usual suspects but they haven't been on lately unless you say something. You're the one who starts stuff most of the time when things are quiet. Guess you're trying to get this thread shut down over stupid stuff. Oh indent thebthe ignore button because I dont get bothered by different opinions.Chicken or the egg?

I could give you a list of things The 3 Amigos started, and yes, I responded too, but why bother, your mind is made up. Yes, Happy Healthy New Year to you and yours. Keyboard Warrior, I'll wear that as I defend my team, lmfao.
So true.I guess you ignored me talking about the other side or usual suspects but they haven't been on lately unless you say something.

Oh indent thebthe ignore button because I dont get bothered by different opinions.
I would say you should at least be able to take your crap that's thrown back at you but you get triggered by shit you start. Anyway Happy New Year to you Keyboard warrior
