Love it. I don't expect him to replicate his August/September numbers but having that bat in the lineup completely transforms this lineup. Stay healthy Mets, if you can do that the NL is yours for the taking.

27.5 mil for the first year is expensive...

They needed to bring him back.

So I guess the Nationals didn't get him

its not a horrible deal.. but 27.5 mil for next year makes him the second highest paid position player behind Miggy Cabrera (only 500,000 less)

he took less guaranteed money to NOT play for them lol.

Says a lot about the Nationals

yes indeed.

 

[MiamiVice]

when you are losing battles for free agents to the marlins and mets... you know you are in trouble.

 

[redseat]

yes indeed.

I guess he doesn't like Harper?

 

[MiamiVice]

I think Cespedes has 1 or 2 more elite seasons left in him... I fully expect him to have a nice year and opt out for a longer term contract.

I want to see Harper and Paplebon in a cage match.

Honestly couldn't tell you who would win

i would go with paplebon... he is way crazier.

Better to overpay in a shorter term deal than get stuck with him for a longer term deal.
