Random stats of the day:

Reggie Jackson struck out a total of 2,597 times, an all-time career record.
That Reggie Jackson stat is crazy for a guy that still hit over .260 for his career.

Joey Gallo if he K's at his BaseballRef 162 game average can pass him in 6 years.

Pete losing leverage by the minute....
Boras tellin him to hold out for that 6+ year 180+ mil that’s never coming.

Mets apparently offered a 3yr/90M deal and he was ‘offended’

What’s offending was his line last year. :hhh:
As much as I want this to help the Mets, I feel like this doesn't affect his market like we want it to. He's not getting the 180 he was seeking before the season, but 5 years 22+ still possible. Burnes just got 210 after it feeling like his demands were obscene.
I don’t think he gets it unless one of the California teams gives it to him. But does he really wanna uproot the fam to LA or San Fran?

Pete is a complete bozo and right now he's looking like a late spring training/April signing with the Anaheim Angels on a one year deal.

Acting like he had a career year going into FA. Smh. Mets offered 150 and 90. He declined both. Oh well.

That’s exactly what I said would happen last week on here. And he’ll get hurt from a lack of spring training. And it’ll derail his career. :francis:


We’ve all seen this shyt before.

A team is going to swoop in at the last minute (march/april) and offer a solid 1 year deal $25-$30M, I'm thinking of a team like the red sox, rockies, angels..pete will have no choice but to take it.

Why do that when if we’ve offered him 3yr/90M with an opt out? Unless he wants outta NY. :yeshrug:
Because it will be a last minute decision after sitting on the sidelines all winter long, Pete wants 6-8 years, 200-300M, so a one year deal and then trying again in free agency next year is his last choice. This will probably be a Boras decision if it does happen.

Pete f*cked up by having a mid season, all season long I was waiting for this dude to go ham and it just never came :yeshrug:

There's no need for a cutoff date. Just sign santander and Boras will get the message.
I think one of Stearns goals is to take out as many strikeouts from the every day lineup. And I agree with that. Santander K’s too much. Pete too.. but he’s homegrown or whatever.
When you make the move to sign someone else that's the cut off date. They can't sign Santander and have Pete accept the offer right?
Sure they can. The rumors have been us being interested in Bregman while bringin Pete back too.

They can but I don't think they want to.
