They only have 1 guy in MLB top 100 prospects, an outfielder &68. If we pay salary would have to be a guy on Major league roster.

Anthony Jet Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 1 hour ago, Rangers9 said: Mets just traded Canha to Brewers for pitcher Justin Jarvis just promoted to AAA. In top 12 (some reports say 30) of Brewers prospects and considered maybe ready for MLB in 2024. Mets pick up Canha salary for 2023 minus minimum. Brewers have a player option for 2024 and if they pick it up they pay it. https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/mark-canha-trade-mets-send-veteran-outfielder-to-brewers-as-deadline-sell-off-continues/amp/ Next up could be Pham I'm hoping they keep him though.

Rangers9 Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Keeping Verlander would not be so bad if you're thinking of contending in 2024. You can build a team around a pitcher like him and Diaz back next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Verlander for top 1 and 4 in Astros org but overall Gilbert rated in 60s plus. He signed for 2.5 in 2022 draft I guess the question now is how much are the Mets paying on Verlander's contract. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 So I just saw some money figures on the deal. Mets will pay 35 million on 2023 and 2024 salaries. If Verlander vests and plays in 2025 based on innings pitched in 2024 etc Mets pay 1/2 of 2025 salary of 35 million or 17.5. So at max Mets could pay 52.5 out of potential 93 million. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/08/mets-trade-justin-verlander-astros.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 That rating could be totally different in 6-12 months. They're always changing as the players cycle through the minors. Plus this team is crying out for athletes and youth. Their doing sh*t this year or next anyway Cohen's not worrying about the $, so I'm not.
