Weather away.

Schultz is such a wild card right now. He is the type of guy that takes a system from middling to top, if he gets to his potential.

Did the Mets actually offer him, or are you referring to fan porn trade offers?

Or quit offering us James McCann and get fucked.

For the record, it COULD be personal, but a NTC is also typically used by players to block the most likely teams they would be traded to in an effort to extract something extra to approve a trade, such as exercising an option, or promising another clause in a deal, etc.

So none of the insiders knew about McCann's no trade, or that the White Sox were on it when they were discussing a McCann deal. Bravo.

I am more surprised the Mets are giving him a roster spot over the winter versus anything else.

So this is where those kind of WAR type stats for defense have problems. If the best guy was "average" according to the defensive metrics, the defensive metrics are wrong, or at least don't do a very good job of making a difference between the quality of the various OF positions.

Along with their two top prospects at least?

Even if this is a salary dumb, Hendriks is an asset with trade value. If we take back a crappy contract that will only increase the rest of the return with a guy like McCann included.

There we go. And it happens A LOT in free agency, especially at the end of a deal.

Confirmed.

There is the salary dump. Same old White Sox.

We also got you the best gift of all, a holiday blizzard, Dairy Queen not included.

One of the big writers was really big on him too IIRC>

Unless he went Magglio Ordonez, there has also been no surgery.

It also isn't playing in one's imagination either. In 2022 we should view information as a good thing, and utilize it in our decision making process.

You know how hard it is to get a quality three way together?

The "good" news is that if we aren't spending everything on the 16 YO crowd, it does leave us money to use in the Cuban crowd.

Definitely because of experience, and a comfort feeling of having done it once already.

2nd kid or teenage years, which ever comes first.

It is crazy to realize, but Houston controls a market that is basically the size of Chicago, by itself.

Something with a relief pitcher makes the most sense for NYM, but it sure sounds make up.
