OT: New York Mets 2024-2025 Off Season Thread
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
Game 6 was my bachelor party. After various stops, we wound up at Olde Queen’s. Two pitchers of beer were poured simultaneously over my head and the Mets scored the winning run. Good times.
Be careful what you wish for MLB. This World Series has been a bore-fest. Borderline embarrassing for the entire AL.
It was obvious to all how easy the Yankees path to the WS was against the Royals and Guardians... the Mets needed to go through a solid Brewers team, and then the Phillies and Dodgers... night and day.
hopefully they all can get to their potential and we'll have a monster team even before FA additions
Sure it matters. They were 0-4 against the Mets this year. They can't measure up to the better teams
Soto 600 million OR
3 players for approx 200 million each ???
Pete /Adames ??
Corbin Burnes
Max Fried
???

Trade for a star making $$$

100% agree with choice #2. I don't want the lazy hot dog for 600 mil. The varsity can keep him

What I can gather from Stearns “won’t hamstring the future” comment, Soto won’t be coming here. Now he’s shrewd, so driving up the price is certainly in play.
or get all 4 because its Cohen :D
The guy who heard the rumors on the internets once owned the team, so he is probably pretty well plugged in.
DeGrom has 3 years left, total $115M. Not sure I want to go there.
It’s a negotiation.
Sometimes if you want the girl, you play hard to get !
If you REALLY want the girl...
And if you know you need Daddy's blessing...
And if Daddy is named Scott Boras...
Then I don't think "hard to get" is a winning strategy.
That said, I really don't think that David Stearns is ready for commitment. Not until he plays the field a bit.
I have no idea how it plays out for the Mets and Pete but I am sure that Stearns does not want to be bidding against himself.
See what the market sets and then negotiate
Wouldn’t they have to eat a huge portion of that contract or are we the only ones that do that? Lol
Hey, was that kbee and superfan assulting Betts over that foul ball? Pay a $1,000 a seat, get to watch a 1/2 inning and spend the rest of the night in a jail cell. Brillant,priceless. Stay classy
Lol. Wait the best part was when the wingman was pointing at Betts as if he did something wrong! I almost wet myself I was laughing so hard.

Cohen has twice bid against himself, and overpaid as a result. Once for Lindor and once for Diaz.
The approach you suggest is more prudent. But when you allow a player to get to free agency, you are accepting the risk that you could lose him. Cohen was unwilling to accept that risk with Lindor and Diaz. He is willing to accept it (perhaps at Stearns' urging) with Alonso. As he should, IMO.
I almost wonder if Boras's failings with FA's last year also drives this.
I feel like the original off the Met's had on the table and Pete turned down, may be better than any offer he gets as a FA...If they can Pete for that offer now- I think they sign him in a heartbeat.
I also think Pete really does like the NYC life.
I also think that would a fair and pretty safe number/years- for both sides.
He is never going to be a .290 hitter but think he could average 38 + HR and 105 RBI for the length of it.

Now that all unpleasant distractions are out of the way, let the off-season adventures begin! The timing is excellent. We don't have to wait until tomorrow since it is already tomorrow.

I believe the Mets acted last offseason as the Dodgers did the previous offseason. Dodgers didn’t spend big knowing they were going all in for Ohtani the following offseason. The Mets acted the same last offseason to go all in on Soto, knowing they cleared a lot of money off the books specifically for this. I don’t think the Mets will be outbid, it comes down to Soto.
FWIW, the Mets writes for The Athletic are predicting 5/140M. Which is roughly the same AAV.
