He has a no trade clause with 10 teams, including the Nats. But his wife works for Fox News? 🤷♂️
If the Mets don't make any big moves today, do you go after Judge in the off-season? I know the Mets have $150 million tied to 7 players, but you have to be creative. Trade McCann for minor leaguers. Fill in some spots with the talented minor leaguers—just a thought.
Meh.
I watch her show Mansion Global when there is nothing else on. She's OK.
One of the top all around CFs in the game. Yes he also valuable to other teams just as much as ours.
And they would have wanted Vientos/Alveraz/Baty, Alonso and McNeil from us.
It is 100% anti Cohen in my eyes. But, I believe that if it isn't this year, he will still get the last laugh.
It's definitely a small market team issue, but I have been impressed with the Brewers ability to remain competitive and re-tool on the fly without ripping everything down. They may think that this isn't the year and that getting multiple guys back for one reliever will get them there in the future. And with all that, once you get in the playoffs, anything can still happen.
SD gave up 2 former top 10 prospects (1 SP and 1 SS), a current top 20 prospect, current top 90 prospect and then an organizational top 15 and got rid of their albatross contract for Soto and Bell.
Hosmer has a no trade clause. He'll surely get extra $$ to agree to be traded.
Mets couldn’t match this Padres offer.
Padres gave up two former Top 10’s. A current top 20 and 80ish. A 14th ranked prospect. And Hosmer.
Alvarez, Baty, and Ramirez match the top 10, 20, and 80ish.
Mets don’t have that extra top 10 prospect (Gore) and they don’t have a major leaguer as good as Hosmer they would be willing to move. I guess they could have offered Peterson but Gore’s has been a top prospect for years and thought of much more than Peterson around the league.
I'm curious, if the DC team is for sale and you have two more years of control after this one for Soto, don't you keep him as an asset and let the new owner decide what to do with him?
I thought the same thing but they have the 5th highest payroll in the game right now.
I'm thinking more because he goes to a team that might win ten games the rest of the season.
It gives them options. They also haven't won a WS ever so if they can win one in the next 2 years it'll be worth it. They could recoup prospects by trading Soto or maybe they'd sign him and try to offload Machado or Tatis. Who knows what will happen in next 2.5 years but credit to them.
Not sure if it is better for sale of team if he were there or not but a very good question none the less. Since Nats got their WS probably better to strip it down.
I think I came early 😂
Definitely just took the Padres +2000 to win the NL West. 7 games left vs the Doyers. 12 games to make up.
That is not a bad bet at those odds. Might jump on that myself.
I’m sure he’ll waive that clause if he hasn’t already because most of them are Boras guys. But it would be hilarious if he sticks with it and refuse to go to Washington because he doesn’t want to suffer through all of that losing.
What’s the point of having it if their going to make you waive it lol?
Looks like NO ONE wants to deal with Cohen unless he gives up Alonso and all of their their Top 10 Prospects.
The point of having it is that NOBODY can make you waive it.
EDIT: But they CAN make you wish you had!
Zero chance he shuts it down.
He’ll get something out of it, but that man would never be able to show his face in San Diego again.
As of now Hosmer hasn't accepted the deal. As I said the Nats are probably going to have to throw on an option year that would be easily attainable or just make it a player option.
Consider the Mets' issue with trying to hire a GM last year, and now possible trades smell like a conspiracy to punish Cohen because everyone feels threatened. Cohen is not a part of the "old boys" network. I say F the Cohen tax and start destroying teams starting this off-season.
