The Mets aren’t done
Apparently they’re in on Correa. He’d play 3rd next to his buddy Lindor

Yes

Cohen just doing what all owners should be doing and that’s trying to win. Can’t get mad at him for it. If we had an owner like that we’d all be ecstatic

I agree with the general idea of depth, but I think ideally one of these OFers would need to be more of a Chris Taylor type player that can literally play all over.  Maybe Ward can play at 1B and 3B a bit?  There would be some redundancy with Urshela, but that’s okay.
I’m all for Nimmo as an acquisition in that I think we really need his offense on this team.  But I kind of assumed that ship sailed after the Renfroe acquisition.  I’m also assuming Nimmo probably wants to play CF.

Those things always work themselves out.
After hearing Nevin comment on Adell being rushed I wouldn’t be surprised if they just told him to go get settled in AAA all year with a plan
Trout will miss time it’s inevitable. Good chance Ward does too. 
 
If there’s value to be had you jump on it. Renfroe is a FA after this season. Adell or Moniak are far from sure things.

I think the value was simply too good to ignore. Look at the contract these shortstops are getting. I’ll gladly take Contreras at 1/3 of the cost. Plus he’d be a massive upgrade over what we have. 
I think Contreras was just a move Perry saw a ton of value in. From a cost perspective and roster perspective. 
I think Perry is keeping all options open and whenever there’s value he’s going to explore it. After thinking this through I have a tough time believing he’ll be pursuing Correa. Which is why I always thought if we ended up with 1 of the 4 shortstops it would be Swanson. However, Xander contract might have Swanson thinking bigger now

I don’t think it needs to be said now but I’ll say it anyways…
We aren’t getting Correa. He’s going to get well over 3 now

I expect another Renfroe/Gio type move and that’ll be that positional player wise

The guy is 6’7” 282… how much longer can his body hold up? Very curious to see this one play out 

If you watch the interview he says it’s still early in the offseason and that he haven’t seen Santa yet. I took it as it’s not even December 25th yet

If the Angels are serious about one of the 3 remaining shortstops and Perry has that kind of money to play with, I think I’d prefer we sign Contreras and Bassitt/Senga instead and trade for a shortstop (Hoerner)
These guys are more likely to get 3-5 year deals which I’m all for versus the 10 year deals. Continue to add productive players to the roster and not put all our eggs in one basket 

My feeling is if the prospective owners told Arte he can go hog wild, we would have seen Brandon Nimmo instead of Hunter Renfroe, and a better upgrade than Urshela, and so on.  Just the type of players being acquired (guys with one year left) seem to somewhat suggest that Minasian isn't being given free reign to spend tons, but rather spread reasonable amounts of money around.

Hoerner and Chisholm are my legit guesses

Man that was the first player I thought of when I read that tweet 

Is there someone that isn’t?

I'd rather have Hendriks than not have him, but it would be somewhat odd to trade Raisel Iglesias for Davidson and Chavez (who's no longer on the team) to get salary relief, then turn around a few months later and trade presumably more than someone at Davidson's level for Hendriks, who'll cost essentially the same as Iglesias for the next two seasons.  You'd still net out at one less year of a $15M+ commitment to a closer, but still seems like just shuffling chairs.

I’m a believer in the Lion. At first I thought he was full of shit but he’s been pretty spot on
Even this morning he said things were going to get going today and we got Verlander and Turner news

That Phillies lineup is filthy
