Not gone yet, but it's close:

How can it be "not done or close" but "likely"?

Yeah, kinda crappily worded. I'm sure he's thinking the Mets have little incentive to play hardball and keep Bautista. But if JoeyBats can only net a non-prospect, minor league roster-filler kinda guy in return, then Phuck the Phils.

I agree. We still have baseball to play. To give away a player just to give him away doesn't make sense. It's not like they'd be saving a ton of money. If he's producing and is good working with the young players, there is value in having him here.

They need to clear space in the OF and a slot on the roster (even though September 1 is near) for Nimmo.

I still don't get it. They do save $80,000 I guess

If they don't move Bautista, they can easily clear space by removing one of their three catchers or 29 relievers.

I read they will have until sometime today to finalize the deal.

It is done. No word yet on the return. I'm guessing "slot money".

Breaking news!

There's virtually no reason to keep him on the roster, Mets. Let him go.
|
| Benjamin Grimm Aug 28 2018 01:49 PM Re: Memories of Jose Bautista (possibly) |
|
Yeah, but if the Phillies want him, the Mets should try to get the most value they can from him, rather than give him away for nothing.

"Trade rumors? I don't know, man. I'm just here to talk about mattresses."

I think this calls for a career change on my part. I'm going to look into making a living smuggling mattresses across the border from Canada.

Apparently this trade has been consummated.

It's a big day for athletes and mattress endorsements:

As for actual Memories of Jose Bautista, I'll go with the [url]walkoff grand slam to beat the Rays and sitting behind him in right field last week watching him spend nine innings trying to stay loose and perhaps engaged, as no fly balls were hit his way and it can be a long game when you're all alone out there.

I'll always remember how his beard seemed inked in, or applied by a magnetic facial hair kit.

His career comps include a surprising number of lefthanded batters, a handful of fellow Met rightfielders, and at least one guy who, like he was previously, had been a Met only on paper.
