Bob Sacamano

Yeah that was my first thought. While he hasn't caught much the last few year, he would serve as your emergency/third catcher.

Seranthony Dominguez. Spend whatever of that $20M you have to spend to get him. Very difficult sell to get him here but he can be with a contender mid-season

QO was for $22M and he wasn’t eligible to receive one since he was traded

It's going to be dumpster diving signings

It's not if you imagine the "Acuna" listed is Ronald!

Cooper Criswell feels like a future White Sox player

They wanted to get better at run prevention but then they added a guy who has never played 1B to play 1B and signed Bichette to play 3B so who knows.

We were never going to get either of those even if we ate $19M.

I think they’ll add someone cheaper

It's probably for a corner spot with Benintendi getting more DH reps. Personally would rather see Baldwin just play a spot.

They were just kindling names out there. No way they sign Bader

Literally lol

Surprised to see how decent Verlander was last year. Still don't really want him nor Scherzer. The latter spends a good amount of time on IL these days. I like the Gonsolin idea on a 1-year (or with option) deal to try to flip later. Injuries have hurt him the last few years though

Do whatever it takes now to move Benintendi to open more at bats for the guy who are already going to find it tough to find at bats

I think people are mad that they weren’t willing to include money to increase the package, not that I think it would have actually been to much of a difference.

There was other reported interest in him so probably going to be more than they want to spend on him.

Who would you add? I think Giolito is unlikely as the bridge is burned. Bassitt probably wants a 2-year deal and will probably be at least $15M. The mid-tier is too expensive for Jerry's taste.

I really doubt they will reallocate the full $20M. What are they going to spend on? Conforto for a few mill, Nick Martinez or Griffin Canning? That's maybe $10M right there.

Think it's already been redeployed in the form of Murakami

The 5th highest paid player on the roster is Derek Hill at $900k lol everyone under him is league minimum ($820k)

Didn’t realize Lenyn played winter ball. Wish he would have grabbed an OF glove

Does anyone else think the Mets offseason has been “meh” so far? I almost rather would have kept Alonso and Nimmo, with Baty at 3B than adding Bichette (likely doesn’t have arm for 3B), Robert and Polanco (both injury prone), and aging Semien.

I kinda do. Run him out in Cf and maybe you have an elite defender/baserunner. That’s not very different than Robert’s down offensive seasons.

Watch out Ronald! The Sox are coming at you with the friends and family plan in a few years!

It’s more likely he’s injured those games
