  2. There's now lotsa' money (and time) to concentrate on improving the club this year and for the Ohtani sweepstakes next year. Later

They basically told Baty and Escobar "we don't think that much of you," and almost committed 12 years to a third baseman who hit 22 HRs last year. Not bad for a SS but no Mike Schmidt. As Billy Joel asked, "Is that all you get for your money?" Later

  11. https://twitter.com/jparencibia9/status/1612515961080274946 Married to Tomi Lahren, who could end up in the wifey thread , or the Trump thread Will he be a coach? He hasn't played (even in the minors) since 2016. Later
  12. =vtmet7 post_id=116303 time=1673133281 user_id=80] De Los Santos looks intriguing, however it's concerning that he's 23 but has never played above A ball St Lucie.
  13. Y'all have to make the trip up here for some AAA Mets action. Side benefit: you'll recognize many more guys from the "Memories of..." threads. I remember Sam Clay. He looked like a guy who would drink with you at the Moon Tower. Did he have feet of ... oh, never mind. Later
  14. The Phillies have acquired left-handed reliever Gregory Soto and utilityman Kody Clemens in a deal with the Tigers. Philadelphia will send INF Nick Maton, OF/1B Matt Vierling and C/DH Donny Sands back to Detroit. The two teams announced the deal this afternoon. Later
  15. Are you saying it may be the coaching? Maybe. But those players were very young when they were in the Mets minor League organization, and success later could be the result of maturity - knowing when NOT to run is as important as knowing when to run. It also could be managerial style in certain situations. Interesting point, though and I'd like to see organization -wide data to begin to see if there is a trend. The current minor leaguer I'm keeping an eye on is Omar De Los Santos, who stole 70 bases (along with 16 home runs)this year, was caught stealing 15 times. He's 97-18 for his minor league career. It will be interesting to see what his numbers will be as he progresses up the organization ladder. Later

  20. =Marshmallowmilkshake post_id=116245 time=1673027591 user_id=119] Meanwhile Boras is an agent with a client who needs a contract.
  21. =metsmarathon post_id=116242 time=1673025765 user_id=83] looks like boras isn't the only one who can play this game.
  22. Edgy MD wrote: It's weird but I love the fact that we have a catch-all Omar Minaya thread to exchange all Omar Minaya-related information throughout the year. How much do you think we should expect? I don't expect much. Yes, he's moving to the (local) MFYs, but to a position that shouldn't draw much attention to anything specific that he does. He'll be an advisor, but won't be the one who pulls the trigger on any moves they make. Of course, if they make a trade that blows up in their faces, "insider" reporters will be told that the move was made based on Omar's advice. Later
  23. When will we find out the answer? Later
  24. Frayed Knot wrote: 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. 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. Later
