Still think Max was bullshytting @Ineedmoney504 ? Straight from the horse's mouth Cohen just said he couldn't promise him they'd be "All in" next season LOL
You @ ed the wrong person lol. Also look at the free agency class. There's Shohei and not much else worth getting hype about. They'll bid for Shohei. Do I think he'll ultimately sign with the Mets? no but that's not the Mets decision.
I guess Cohen, Eppler and everyone in the FO should be super open about their plans with a person they want to move cuz they don't see the value of them in the next year.
Next year's free agent class is way better. They greatly improved their farm while also not fooling themselves about this year and just hoping things are better next year. It's not like they won't sign anyone this fall. Stearns will probably running the show as well instead of Eppler.
People were calling the rotation old and washed but we were supposed to also roll that out next year with everyone else older and just assume what that everyone will be better again?

Listen, you can say what you want and make those predictions and what not, that's fine but Cohen said what he said breh. Are they going to make a serious bid at Ohtani? I mean a serious bid. Saying, "oh we offered him $400M over 10 and he turned it down" isn't a serious bid.
Any interest in Ohtani would obviously have you overlook one year. He's literally the only dude you do that for, but at the end of the day, it's up to him. I think Cohen views it the same way as any sane businessman would. If he signs with someone else and the Mets aren't one of the last 3 teams he's choosing from, that wouldn't mean they weren't serious bidders imo.
You could say that's cope but I'd feel the same way if they were competitive right now and didnt sell. I just don't think if that's the case, they'd go on a spending spree like they have before given what's out there. If Peterson or Megill showed something this year in terms of being something they could rely upon I think that would change things but them not doing that shows there are too many holes to fill to just throw long term deals to these FA pitchers vs the next crop.

Don't worry, Dombrowski will be gone in 2-3 years while you still have a bunch of albatross contracts on the books for 5-8 more years and no farm system to speak of.
