Who expected him earlier?
-
@JonHeyman Bauer to Dodgers
-
Universal DH and expanded playoffs creates exactly 0 new jobs.
-
@JonHeyman Mets offer to Trevor Bauer said to be frontloaded with the opt-outs. About $40M at least in 1st year, via @Joelsherman1 with opt-out. Dodgers Bauer offer unknown but they offered similar structure — $40M/year with rolling opt-outs to Bryce Harper. They can compete.
-
@jonmorosi Jake Odorizzi is drawing broad interest, and his market could crystallize once Trevor Bauer signs. The Angels, Red Sox, Blue Jays, Giants, and Twins have been in contact, sources say, with the Mets a possibility if they don’t sign Bauer. @MLBNetwork @MLB

If the bottom of the pen is Valdez and Whitlock, it's not the end of the world.
-
Then why didn't they counter after Mookie said $400M?
-
Agreed on all fronts.
-
So he either thinks the core isn't ready for another run just yet OR he doesn't like what is available on the market right now.
-
If those 3 all get AB's this year, it means our prospect pipeline is running well. They aren't going to bring those guys up unless the issue is forced (i.e. not win/loss %).
-
If they can have the Super Bowl go on as scheduled, they can allow for Spring Training with reduced attendance.
-
Again, the only reason the season was delayed last year was because of local ordinances that forbid gatherings of 20+ people. That's not the case now.
-
Why would the delay Spring Training? Doesn't make sense to me.
-
I don't think they grab JBJ, Puig or Ozuna. Maybe Marwin, but that's a definitely hold my nose option. I just have a feeling that they aren't going with a lefty bat just yet.
-
@mlbtraderumors #Mets have reportedly given Trevor Bauer a deadline to decide on their offer:
-
Which ended up being 80% of what he actually got. It was a lowball offer.
-
Woof woof...
-
NBA, NHL and NFL are all having seasons, why not MLB?
-
The lefty bench bat will be Josh Ockimey. The 4th OFer will be Puello. Threat level: 8.5.........................
-
@jonmorosi Trevor Bauer’s decision could come today, as we discussed a short time ago on #HotStove. @MLBNetwork @MLB
-
@BNightengale Trevor Bauer and the #Mets have a deal. @Feinsand Trevor Bauer and the Mets do not have a deal yet, per sources.
-
Is that the better Basabe, or the worse?
-
If they had Betts, they'd be close enough to being in the mix anyway.
-
You get more money as the playoffs go one, but it's still not enough to cover the normal payroll costs. Someone is getting shortchanged somewhere.

If you're punting on 2020, 2021 AND 2022, you may have just as well re-signed Mookie and traded away all the shorter term contracts (JD, Price, et al). You would have gone under the lux tax in 2022 at the very least and managed to retain one of the most marketable stars Boston has ever had. It just shows me that it was about cost savings long term rather than just getting under the lux tax for that one year. "Hey, we're not going to compete until 2023 so we gotta get under the lux tax in 2020 by dealing Mookie." "Couldn't you just re-sign him and get under in 2022? If you're not planning on competing until 2023, it at least gives the fans something to watch." "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!"
