"The question has always been with this #Mets front office whether or not they'd exit their comfort zone for 2nd gen starting pitching contracts. Perhaps if there was a unique case but I am not sure the market has such a case this winter. Its why a trade always made more sense"

".@richmacleod and I are having a sidebar. Let's say the #Mets sign Kyle Schwarber. Then how about they try and trade for Willson Contreras to play first base Plus defense at first plus bat from the right side two modest guaranteed years left on his deal. I think I dig"

"Diaz's AAV from the #Mets on his 5/102 deal was $XXXX million. His AAV from the Dodgers is $XX million. So basically this came down to one extra year and X extra million in AAV over three years for the best closer in baseball. Think about that for a second"

"You want to guess that Edwin Daz wanted to leave the #Mets that he wanted to join the team nobody could beat fine. Even so if you believe they left it at 3/66 that's still not a big market way to handle a negotiation for the best closer in the game esp with LA lurking"

"David Stearns might be able to build this bullpen right Devin Williams might have a X ERA in 2026 & save XX games & all might be well in the world. But he keeps touting the resources at his disposal & in this Edwin Daz situation he simply didn't empower himself with them"

"And for all those saying Edwin Daz wanted the Dodgers all along maybe that's true. But these are the Steve Cohen Mets. They should've made him want them if they in fact wanted him as badly as they needed him. That's what the Dodgers did for him in the end"
