I don't know if Conforto is an automatic extension candidate. Don't see him being the .322 hitter he was last year and there are a lot of good corner hitting OFers. They grow on trees. If they sign...

Yeah definitely getting it. The only way to curb these numbers and get back to normal life is to get as many people inoculated as possible. I have a couple of friends who are nurses who already got...

If police are using significant physical force against protestors ( like we've seen in the past), what exactly do they expect in return? Not to say protestors don't incite violence either but its a...

Nah. Kluber has too good of a career resume to get anything less than 6-8 million dollars with incentives to bump it up over 10 million bucks. He would have gotten that had the Yankees not giving him...

Depends on the context of the violence. If its solely done for materialistic reasons like using that crowd of people to steal 5,000 dollar items, its senseless. If its in response to police running...

That's a pretty good summation of why Democrats have allowed people like Trump to take power. The party that "represents" the middle class hasn't done...

If i had to bet, its somewhere between those numbers. At best most of these sites and writers are estimating. Whatever the case is the Mets will definitely go over the luxury tax if they get Hand...

Hand is definitely the safer bet. Sometimes i like taking fliers though. Maybe Taijuan Walker is that guy instead.

Baron is saying 186 for the Mets luxury tax payroll with the signing of Lindor. So essentially the Mets have 24 million dollars before they hit that luxury tax number. We'll see if they go over it...

A 1 year deal for Kluber is still a nice signing regardless of his age and the fact that he hasn't pitched much in 2 years. I would rather have him than Hand. I know the game is much more bullpen...

This literally comes down to whether Cohen and Alderson want to go over the luxury tax. Their luxury tax payroll (at this moment) is 182 million and thats before they come to arbitration with Lindor...

Different circumstances. You don't get Lindor and Carrasco for that price unless there is a pandemic that makes teams drop dump payroll. Lindor would have cost more than what the Mets gave up for...

Mets signed Jose Martinez. If he can find what he was in 2017 and 2018, he will be a good bench bat.
