“What the heck’s the difference? If you’re going to make the move make the move,”
Those are the words attributed to Steve Cohen.
The Mets have signed Carlos Correa to a 12 year deal for $315,000,000!!
Correa had been scheduled for a Giants Press Conference which was canceled over concerns about the physical and then this happened. The Post has details.
Steve is now WAAYYYYY over the luxury tax and doesn’t care. I am hoping he doesn’t care to the point that he just eats Lindor’s contract for booing Mets fans.
I don’t know how this sport is going to survive all these decade long contracts, but that’s the future’s problem. If we can get a Mets World Series while nicely dressed next summer I will be long gone before the bill comes due.
Steve also said, ““I hope the fans show up.” – Steve, I appreciate what you’re trying to do here, but you came along too late. What’s this team going to do, win 101 games? Baseball broke the sport with expanded playoffs. Plus it’s boring. I jumped up and down about things for the entire 2010s and nobody cared – so hey enjoy your fantasy baseball team, but I’m not planning on attending.
Meanwhile, in Texas, Jacob deGrom is happy that the Rangers are committed to winning.
Media Goon is on his way to Modell’s to get a Correa jersey.
And a reminder, the Shea Stadium site is PARKLAND not land to build a casino on. Do whatever you want on the east side of 126th, but not on the west side which is PARKLAND. Stay focused everyone.
