i am being perfectly honest here. would that be a fair deal?

 

i am very guilty of over valuing the sox players and prospects.

 

Yes it's absolutely fair. Keep in mind I've conferred with many other outsiders(of both teams) on this issue. Alexei's value should be high.

Hahn has about as much chance of getting Wheeler for Alexei as he does of sending Jordan Danks to the Angels for Mike Trout.

 

Great. Then we hold on to Alexei and pay him less than the Mets are paying Cuddyer for the next two years.

Lol, that's fine with me. I have no problem holding onto Alexei.

1. The team hasn't gotten better on defense.

2. When has acquiring NL talent actually benefited the Sox? I think they are cursed in this area.

I'm not sure AL talent acquisitions have been any better

Good news for us. Reduce that supply

Every path leads the Mets back to Alexei. Someone needs to tell Seinfeld to just go ahead and order his Ramirez jersey now.

I feel that it's a matter of time before the deal is done. The Mets are stuck.

I'm surprised the Mets aren't rumored to be interested in Lowrie.

Hahn on Alexei Ramirez trade rumors: Will listen, but "it’s certainly not something we’re pursuing on our end or are eager to convert on."

Good. Wait to get blown away

Patience and contract negotiations continue to be Hahn's staple traits.

Looking at the list of pitching depth I made earlier, I forgot about the Rookie of the Year de Grom. They can't spare 1 or 2 young arms? They seem stacked on pitching.

good when the mets put a real offer on the table, then make a call to the

dodgers. see what they will offer.

Hahn is a smart guy, if he does move Ramirez he won't give him away. The Sox will something worthwhile in return.

If they refuse to give up one Wheeler/Syndergaard what would you guys think about Niese and Lagares? Is that even "less"?

 

Niese is still youngish at 28 and would be a solid #3. Lagares is one of the best defensive outfielders in the league.

Yeah I think that Hahn would have to be blown away to make an Alexei deal.

Niese is not a 3 (neither is Noesi). More like a 4.

Those are back end of the roster players.

Pass.

If the Mets refuse to give up Wheeler or Snydergaard then Alexei plays SS for the White Sox and the Mets continue their search. The Mets are the desperate team and not the Sox.

 

I can see the logic behind the Mets perspective though. Niese and Gee have two years of control left just like Alexei and are younger/ cheaper than Alexei so in the eyes of the Mets, it makes sense . Problem for the Mets is that Alexei is quite valuable in the eyes of the Sox, and rightfully so.

 

IMO, I would tell the Mets to f*** off if they really have mentioned Colon. By bringing up Colon, the Mets are obviously trying to low ball the value of the very player they desire.

If you trade Ramirez, who plays SS?

Siemen for 1 yr, hopefully Anderson will be ready to step in by then.

I stand by the idea of signing Jed Lowrie and then trade him in a year or two when Anderson is ready. That's IF Alexei is even traded which I doubt.
