32 per and would be 32 entering FA once this contract is over with.

I wonder if this is start of a negotiation phrase or more of a we tried. Crane has shown not to go over 5 years from the Lance/Altuve and Bregman extensions.
Which is fair but these guys always want the extra years. Why not go 5/$175 and get his prime years? He'd be a FA again at 31 and someone would give him another crazy deal.

If I was running a team, I'd have no problem paying crazy AAV for a handful of years that should be incredibly productive.

that’s what I said about his age. He just turned 27. So at 32 he still can rake in another 100 million contract

:yeshrug: replace syndergaard on the wish list with matz unless the blue jays offer a qo too

Why not both? The Mets need pitching. If David Peterson is seeing significant time and Carrasco pitches as poorly as he did this past season, it's going to be a long 22. Don't forget how bad Taijuan Walker was.
