Some are talking about Clayton Kershaw.

[Marshmallowmilkshake]

Bleacher Report says the Mets are a No. 2 landing spot for the increasingly injured future Hall of Famer. Andy Martino says he doesn't think that's the case.

Thinking about it, if Kershaw is looking for a one-year deal, doesn't mind being the No. 3 starter and wants to chase a ring, I can see why the Mets might want him. But I also have a hard time believing the Dodgers would let him walk away.

i'd be ok with a clayton kershaw, depending of course on the cost.



there'd be an incredible risk that we have no available starting pitchers, of course, but otherwise, i think it could work out fantastically well.

[kcmets]

Didn't this come up in another thread and everyone was like NO? Maybe

I'm conflating it with another discussion elsewhere.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

No. 4 starter

[A Boy Named Seo]

Yeah, why not. Assuming he's part of a collection of 7-8 rotation guys every team needs nowadays.

[Lefty Specialist]

For a one-year deal, yes. But somebody will overpay for his past production and get burned for it.

[nymr83]

Yeah, one year and lots of CohenCash. great!

[Benjamin Grimm]

I'm also on Team "Why Not?"

As long as it's not me, personally.

[smg58]

He can give you 150 IP tops at this point. I don't think I'd go above $10M for that.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Maybe they're gonna enact a rule during these ongoing negotiations that the team with the most past Cy Young Awards on its active roster gets an automatic pass into the playoffs.
