Jon Heyman on Twitter: "Rodon Yankees deal: 6/162mm. Full no trade" / Twitter

 

Very nice upgrade to the pitching staff.

Fix your title.  The 'big guy' is getting upset! 😳

Damn, that's a hell of a deal if he can duplicate what he's done over the past couple years.

 

deGrom got $182 million for 5 years and he's prone to injury and four years older than Rodon.

Rodon was a great pickup.........but WTF are they doing about their lack of left handed bats and LF situation?

 

Hal got the yips when he saw that market was $15M aav..........whether it was a rental type or a 5 year deal type.

 

Then they let Carpenter walk as well...........which makes no sense for $6M per year for 2 years.

 

Meanwhile........the Mets payroll(with luxury tax penalties) is $495M. ($384M = $111M tax)

 

I'm glad Cohen is pushing Hal but the bar wasn't $300M.........the bar is whatever it takes to field a balanced lineup that could beat the Astros.
