Re: Tender is the Night
I'm most curious to see what happens with Vogelbach. I, for one, would let him go.
I've seen rumors that Drew Smith might be traded before the deadline hits.

I think we definitely want to keep that Alonso guy.

Re: Tender is the Night
Peterson is an interesting case. He is on the IL. I'm not sure if you can non-tender a player on the IL because he would lose his medical benefits (in his case rehab from surgery). I would think the MLBPA would be against that policy.
Can a team do that under the current bargaining agreement?

Re: Tender is the Night
There's no injured list in the off-season. Peterson is, by the rules, at the end of his contract and hoping for a new one.

Re: Tender is the Night
So he’s on his own for doctor bills?
Ouch
You know I never thought of that. Do the players get insured by the team or by the union?

I think Joey and smith will be key parts of the staff next year.

Re: Tender is the Night
Guillorme and Vogelbach really fell into disuse the last month of the season.
Really, Vogelbach did. Guillorme spent much of the second half hurt, with the Mets in no hurry to get him back on the field. When he finally came back, he appeared in one game and sat for another 10 days.
He'll probably have a contract with somebody before the week is out.

From what I heard (secret sources) your wife's testimony was the reason they released him.

Vogue and Gitmo were both memorable players and true Mets

It's like the world didn't even know it needed a cross between Lucas Duda and Chris Farley, and there this guy was.

Re: Tender is the Night
Among those non-tendered there are a few with Metly pedigree: Dom Smith, Thomas Szapucki, and--more recently if only tangentially, Penn Murfee
Re: Tender is the Night
Luis Guillorme, Sr. certainly seems to think his son is off to other horizons.
Also doesn't appear to be much of a Mickey Callaway fan.
