Re: Trevor Bauer-Jays had private meeting
As with Bradley, Bauer is asking for more years and more dollars than the Mets are willing to give. As SNY reported Wednesday, the Mets’ offer to Bauer is approximately this: Four years with opt-outs and a figure somewhat less than $36 million per year.
With the Los Angeles Angels out on Bauer, as first reported by the Los Angeles Times, the remaining known teams -- the Mets and Los Angeles Dodgers -- are interested in short-term deals.
If an unknown team emerges to bid more aggressively on Bauer, that team will get him. The Mets like him, but are not interested in a bidding war.
But in the current known landscape, the Mets are the obvious fit -- not at Gerrit Cole/Stephen Strasburg prices, but on terms closer to what the team prefers.
Now you can see why the Mets aren’t close to a deal yet with Bradley or Bauer. But you can also see why that might change.

I know we need SP, but I'm glad the Jays are out of the running for this guy.

I hope he sits at a table in a high school gymnasium and chooses a hat to put on his head.
Is anybody here a marine biologist?
