Pretty sure fathom has sources

It will start to get overcrowded with guys who should be in the lineup every day, Beni and the whatever position player additions are made. It already is a bit crowded.

I meant in the discounted salary (Sox kicking in money)

Perfect. Then I guess you can push Vargas to LF

I wouldn’t even want to play any of the infielders the Mets could trade us in the infield over any of the guys currently here. Someone moving to CF like Acuna? Maybe. Just don’t really want him either unless something or two more enticing came with him.

Feels like a move made to not look dumb after Tweeting about watching for smoke lol

Ok, now let’s deal a discounted Robert to Mets lol

Put up a 3.1 WAR season while playing a new position. The Cubs aren’t just going to give him away. They’re better off holding onto him for injuries and when/if Nico leaves

Also, Mets were better off just keeping Alonso I feel

Where’s he going to play lol you figure Lindor at SS, Semien probably at 3B, Bichette at 2B. Unless they’re able to move Semien. Edit: I guess Baty can get at bats at corners and DH

33 years old and bad. Mehhhhh

Let’s see some movement here. Mets lose out on an OF, Reds moved a guy who saw a good amount of time in the OF last year, and we had the Yankees rumor earlier this week (probably a plant for Bellinger’s market, who’s also still out there for Mets).

Think they land Bellinger and Yanks are sitting there holding the bag because they offered a guy the QO that they thought would reject it.

Probably get Bellinger now

If not a salary cap, at least some sort of cap on deferrals

Probably a lot of deferrals there

Stolen from us

His transaction history shows he retired May 2, 2025 and was released September 23, 2025.

If he retired while still under contract, wouldn’t he still be under Sox control?

Would be a good opportunity to swoop in and take advantage.

Winker is just a DH. Pass

Don’t really know how it’s going to shake out but in a platoon, one will have a better chunk of than the other so no, don’t really think it’ll be 50/50 split. Doesn’t sound like they’re committing to both primarily being in the lineup either though saying Benintendi will DH more.

They weren’t at the same level the entire time. Plus, in AA where you have a bigger roster, they were alternating at C and DH every day when they were. If they don’t alternate on a game to game basis, one will be sitting.

They shouldn’t do something dumb for the sake of doing something haha

Yep
