There was an article on Yahoo sports that said the BoSox would be interested in a trade for Carrasco, but did not say which/ or if, specific names have been discussed. Could just be some sportswriter's chowda.

I think it was Sports Illustrated that speculated that it might be a younger pitcher with more years of team control.

[Edgy MD]

Well, I just ordered my 🌭🥨NY onesie.

Eye don't get it: hot dog, pretzel, NY?

When I think of pretzels I think of Philly



Maybe Edgy's telling us correa's going to Philly

[Edgy MD]

I'm just rolling with Correa and his kid up top.

I always thought the eye black gene skipped a generation, but I guess I was wrong.

Philadelphia pretzels are shaped differently.

Back to the subject at hand, Ken Rosenthal apparently told a podcast connected to The Athletic that a NYM/Carlos Correa contract could look "dramatically different" than the announced original.

[whippoorwill]

Lol



Yeah. One year. $1000 and maybe an X-ray now and then

And every article about the Correa situation I've read since then cites that one Rosenthal piece.

1) I would expect the new contract wouldn't be a straight payout given that past injury, so it would be different. It is a d'oh conclusion.

2) How about other reporters getting off their collective lazy arses and uncovering new details for info to pass along to us?



He concludes his article by saying that once the Corrrea deal is complete, the Mets will make other deals.

1) Fairly logical - they have other holes to fill.

2) if he knows something for sure, who are the players involved?



In both cases, I'm starting to get the feeling that Rosenthal is less a reporter with insight than he is Captain Obvious.





OE: Maybe I'm just frustrated there is no new off-season news.

Jim Bowden wrote an article about what all 30 clubs are telling him/ what he is hearing off the record and he says the Mets are likely to pursue a 4th outfielder

When you run the Philadelphia Marathon, after 26.2 miles you get one of those bad boys and a cup of steaming hot chicken broth to dip it into.



The race is always a cooler day, the last weekend before Thanksgiving, and that is one fine fine post race piece of nourishment.

That is a pretty messed up pretzel. Needs beer cheese and a beer.

[Frayed Knot]

Heyman, Post: Correa/NYM talks hit a "hiccup" leading Correa/Boras to be in contact with "at least one other team".

[The Hot Corner]

MLB.com ((citing NY Post article) is reporting that Correa and Boras are in contact with 2 other teams (one is believed to be the Twins) while also negotiating a restructuring with the Mets.



I'm growing tired of this entire ordeal. It seems that all substantial potential moves the Mets might be considering are on hold while this protracted negotiation drags on. I would love to see Correa manning third base for the Mets, but I am growing tired of this drawn out affair. I seriously doubt, any team will offer him nearly the money (and years) the Giants and Mets offered. If the two sides are not making substantial progress to resolving this contractual impasse, I feel it would be in the Mets best interest to "cut bait" and move on with their offseason.

[Bob Alpacadaca]

I would not be stunned of Boras is leaking that he is talking to other teams to put pressure on the Mets. It always seems there are leaks about a "mystery team" involved when he has a star client trying to get a deal signed.

[Edgy MD]

Edgy MD wrote: I wouidn't be surprised to see the Twins enter back into the picture. They have more on his current condition than most teams, and they already have a contract that he opted out of. It wouldn't be so hard to say to Boras, "That deal is still open to opt back into, or at least serve as a starting point."

I'm Edgy MD and I'm happy to offer stock market advice for a reasonable upfront fee.

I think this is a bluff, trying to put the pressure on Unkie Steve to get this deal locked down by releasing this info publicly. I think other teams that can't just print their own monopoly money aren't giving up the big bucks for Correa because of this leg thing anyway.

[vtmet7]

this whole saga is getting a little tedious...every day on my facebook feed or on sportspyder there is another updated Correa story that basically says nothing new or cooks up drama...at this point it's time to either shit or get off the pot so that we can focus on getting the roster more focused than 1 freaking player...I would like Correa, but it's not like we don't have several other 3B options

[A Boy Named Seo]

I'm not really stressing the mystery team. At this point, no team is going to pip the Mets' offer when there's clearly something scary on the medicals. And I don't see how Correa is served taking another short deal and doing it all over again next year. If he's really walking around with an ankle that was repaired with duct tape and Big League Chew™, any team that beats the Mets will soon find the same befuddling shit on the X-ray, so...



These re-negotiations should protect the club pretty well and I'm sure Carlos will still make truck loads of dough over the next decade.
