What a difference 80 miles makes, here in Connecticut we don't give shit about the Mets, they play in the other league. We're happy Soto didn't go to Boston, THAT'S our rival.
I feel sorry for Kay that he couldn't fathom that the only reason they went back to the Yankees to match, (if, in fact they actually did) would be because they knew Cohen was not going to be outbid so they could raise the price. So Michael, maybe he never was going back to the Yankees, but they were merely being used to drive up the price.
The yankees are screwed. Plain and simple. There are too many holes, horrible defense, need a legit leadoff, more speed, a closer, etc.. they have to build an entire team around a over paid DH. Not to mention their not deep with prospects and development is horrible. We got Juan Soto last year for one reason. So Brian Cashman could keep his job and get the fans off his back. Now Soto is gone along with King and a few other prospects. This team needs a rebuild, starting with the front office and management. That's the moves to be made.
The Yankees will always be 1A in New York and the Mets will be 2A team, the Mets are maybe the 4th best team in the NL right now, you can guarantee that Soto numbers will go way down on the Mets and Soto will be only a DH by year 4 of this deal.
Yankees should be looking for short term contracts. Trade for Hoerner and Bellinger and sign Buehler. I would sign Walker if he accepts 2-3 years. Add 2-3 rp and that’s it.
Sign bregman and fried, trade for Correa using Volpe, Spencer Jones and stroman. Start Cabrera in LF and Dominguez in CF and if there is payroll left, go after Bellinger.
@@benjames4502 "Sign Bregman and Fried." Fine. "Trade for Correa using Volpe, Spencer Jones and Stroman." No freaking way. The Twins would do that deal in a heartbeat and all you've done is put yourself in the luxury tax with Correa's contract and give up the potential of Spencer Jones for a player that will get hurt. Forget Bellinger, you'd be already over the luxury tax.
The problem with their assessment is "Cohen doesn't care about his payroll." The Mets payroll is still nowhere near the luxury tax even after the three players they have brought in. That was the point of this year's free agency. THEY HAD THE ROOM TO DO THE DEAL. They have pitching prospects coming in the next two years. Everything was built around getting Soto and they will still have a responsible payroll commensurate to the market they play in. Well done Mets.
The opt out is automatic? You really think a 30 year old transitioning to DH in a few years is gonna risk opting out of 10-510M. There’s no way. Only advantage Mets had is 5M and he can retire a year earlier. It was more than the money, get over it.
Yankees really need to Soto to stay but what he’s making is ridiculous. Mets needed him more because the competing teams in the NL are just flat out stacked with pitching and hitting, and defense. Yankees need all of that. In about 8 years, this will be an Albert Pujols contract. I mean, Mets still need starting pitching, and more hitting just to be half of what the dodgers are if healthy.
They can get one solid starter and one solid lefthanded power bat and execute some trades. Now do I trust Cashman and Co. to make the right choices, my answer is NO.
I feel sorry for Kay that he can't accept the fact that it may not be all about the money or that there are people who exist in the world that just don't genuflect at the mere mention of the Yyankee name
They don't have a brighter future. Unless you're wish castings 5 years into the future. Soto makes the mets competitive in their division, but the Phillies are still loaded, and braves will be healthy next season. The Mets barely made the playoffs as the 3rd wildcard that needed a hurricane to delay a series with the braves. In the conference, the dodgers are still a super team, and pardres have improved since trading soto to the point the dodgers considered that series as their world series.
@@omarandino9083 They barely made the playoffs off the backs of the Philadelphia Phillies the weekend series before the Braves, plus beating the Braves when everything was on the line to get in the playoffs, before beating the Brewers who lost a game to them to help them get to Atlanta for that series to matter, and defeating the Phillies in the division series. The Mets aren't worried about the Phillies. The Braves don't have a mental hold on them anymore and can't stay healthy. The Mets are in the ascendancy position. Nice try though.
No. The goofy Yankees fans are upset. Those of us who are reasonable and rational don't have a problem having Soto leave at the contract number. Goodbye. Spread the money around amongst multiple players.
Kay need to stop crying we outexpend everybody before.. Its a business they played their all career to get to this moment and get pay... it was over 50M but also a year less.. so stopped and move on sign others players..2B 1B LF are open... Relievers are needed and a SP also
In the words of the immortal Jeff Passan: "Smoke weed every day!"
I smoke enough, I could join a raggae band.

Get Bellinger ~ he is a swiss army knife ....at 28 he could have upside if MOTIVATED... 10 years down the road Judge is long gone...
Good 1B platoon too

The Yankees were willing to add at least 75-100 million in payroll. No way were they going to just sign soto. Now go spend 74 million on 3 players

Copiummm😂😂😂

I agree with u, just add Fried to that mix.

Lol get all the former dodgers
Yea and at least one of the two top pitchers left

Soto, Rizzo and Torres coming off the books alone is about sixty million, passan looked foolish here.
It wasn't all about the money, there goes that cocky Yanees mouthpiece again
Soto stunk things up in big moments during the playoffs like every other Yankee.
The opt out is automatic? You really think a 30 year old transitioning to DH in a few years is gonna risk opting out of 10-510M. There’s no way. Only advantage Mets had is 5M and he can retire a year earlier. It was more than the money, get over it.
It’s 10 years @ 56 if Soto opts back in
@ that’s only if the Mets void the opt out. He has to risk opting out first for that to happen. Which he’ll only do if he thinks he can beat 10-510

95% about the money, 5% about whatever.
The Yankees need to do a mini rebuild, but they would need to wait for Cashman to leave before they attempt that .
Its about the money. Nothing more. Nothing less.
Show me the money.
@@CarreraTrackOntheFloor There's no such thing as team loyalty.
They can get one solid starter and one solid lefthanded power bat and execute some trades. Now do I trust Cashman and Co. to make the right choices, my answer is NO.
Sign Bergman and fried, trade for Correa using Volpe, Spencer Jones and stroman.
IT wasn't all about the money KAY calm down man, we will find out at SOTOS PRESS CONFERENCE!
It's clearly about the money he said so him when they lost the world series no home town discounts every team has a shot.
Sign Arenado. He will be reborn in NYC.
He had a no trade clause
It was about the money and about him
I feel sorry for Kay that he can't accept the fact that it may not be all about the money or that there are people who exist in the world that just don't genuflect at the mere mention of the Yyankee name
God I cringe everytime I hear Rosenberg talk
Two things can be true at the same time Kay. It was about the money AND the Mets have a brighter future and this comes from a Texas Rangers fan.
They don't have a brighter future. Unless you're wish castings 5 years into the future.

its Baby Bombers 2.0 time

"As he should...!"
No, Michael. I agree with the rest of your long lecture, but your closing sentence is wrong.
"As he COULD."
Micheal Kay lost alot of hair lastnight losing Soto. doesn't MLB know "Micheal Kay's hairline matters"?
Yeah Jeff, only Soto was hitting in the playoffs, Stanton was awful…
You didn't see all of Stantons home runs?
@ I was sarcastic
Stanton was 100% the best player on any team in the playoffs
@@PianoUniversehe’s a monster in the post season, but a strike out machine in regular season
Nolan is a dodger
Kay need to stop crying we outexpend everybody before.. Its a business they played their all career to get to this moment and get pay... it was over 50M but also a year less.. so stopped and move on sign others players..2B 1B LF are open... Relievers are needed and a SP also
Micheal Kay talks like a loser, who cares how tough a division is.
Did you say is all about the money when the NYYs bought players? I heard they did not call and ask to match, lol. you are such a tiring homa.
