that didn't work out so well for Drew...and 2 different teams have basically interpreted Correa's X-rays as that it's indicating that his leg (that gave him a stinger on a slide in Sept 2022) is basically being held together with a metal plate, screws, duck-tape and shrinkwrap...so you would think that signing a 1 year deal for Correa is not a good long term risk for a good payout

Yeah, there have been so many 'sources close to....' stories that I'm just gonna wait this thing out.

Re: Holy @#%$!
Have any of the beaters speculated as to what the Mets will do with Escobar when this is over one way or another?

A lot of talk about trading Escobar, but I'd keep him as a reserve infielder, right-handed DH. It would be silly to ditch Escobar and keep Ruf.

Re: Holy @#%$!
I think Escobar is a good spare part to have but you gotta wonder where he stands on first being replaced, and next, considered still be to be replaced by an injured guy, one year into his contact. Perhaps we trade him (and Ruf) to San Francisco, and then sign Andrew McCutheon as RH DH
Re: Holy @#%$!
It's also being replaced like this — leaving the sword of Damocles dangling there for a month.

They're now checking out his ankle injury with CARFAX.

Re: Holy @#%$!
Quite a drop in years and guaranteed dough. The Mets (and Giants) must have been absolutely terrified by whatever was on those medicals. Hey Brett Baty, I hope you didn't sell your 3B mitt on ebay yet!
great googly moogly!
Re: Holy @#%$!
Wow, I thought all along it was a lot of posturing and he'd be a Met. Shows you what I know.

Mind boggling that Steve Cohen would make public comments before seeing the physical. Unless Boras held something back, it's inexplicable.

Correa may not make it, but this is a first-ballot CPF HOF thread.

Re: Holy @#%$!
Surprised but not shocked. Zero disappointment here NOW!!!
Should make for an interesting tabloid cover or two mañana for sure.

They must have used CARFAX because the price dropped so much.
Sometimes he best deals are the ones you never make.
