You could easily say the Mets were the better team this year, so is the result that much of a surprise for a very similar contract offer?

Throw in the fun-loving, relaxed, family-oriented clubhouse, that also offered a suite to him (it wasn’t that he demanded it, Cohen offered it along w many other unmatched family benefits). Would you pass that up just because of “storied franchise”?
Not really. Have you seen what they've done since they lost Soto? Not bad and they aren't done yet. They'll be fine.

Agree! I’m glad it didn’t work out. Way too much money for one player. Yankees are making moves in the right direction. Looking forward to next season⚾️

Bellinger and a washed up Goldschmidt do not a Juan Soto make

Yeah, I like the pitching moves they made, but both these guys OBP has tanked as of late. They feel like Anthony Rizzo 2.0 and 3.0. Hope I'm wrong.

I immediately thought the same.. It's like they replaced Rizzo with....another Rizzo!

Washed up? I do not think so. Not yet. Mini Boss and Cashman would not have made the 1 year deal if that was their belief.

And for all the Kumbaya joy and $$$, I think the Mets are in over their heads with Mr. Wonderful Saviour Soto. Remember Cano? Let's see, how many World Series have the Mariners won? Can't (won't) win it all with one guy.

Well I certainly hope the Yankees sewer next year but I'm afraid the Mets will as well. But then again there are at least a couple of National League teams I prefer to the Mets.

You're forgetting Fried who they wouldn't have been able to get with Soto.

I was just talking hitters. No way they're making up Soto's production, or even coming close with those guys.

I do think Fried will be good for them. I also like the Devin Williams pickup. Yankee fans may not be super familiar with him but he has been an absolute monster the last few years when healthy
