Jonathan India has made the Reds OD roster.
they have to be willing to deal Suarez, right?

South Asia.

gNats GM says that they had a player test positive for COVID today. But another 4 players were deemed to be in close contact and will have to quarantine. So they will have 5 players not available tomorrow

Lindor wants 385-400M, Mets are offering 325M. Lindor has some huge balls turning down that much. They gotta be able to meet in the middle somewhere. Even as good as he is, i'm not sure he gets 385-400M in FA. Surprised we havent heard anything on Braves and Freeman. Figured that was something that would get done before OD.

Kinda hard for them to deal Suarez since he's their SS.

Lindor and Mets agree to ten year 341 mil with no opt outs.

It's the Mets so this will end badly

Most likely. But conversely, they have a 5+ WAR SS locked up during his prime years. Let's hope moving forward that he's more of the solid 3-4 WAR player he was in 2020 and not the 7 WAR beast he was in 2018.

Lindor is a good player and is worth the contract. But it's the Mets.

3 weeks in and Lindor is rocking a 77 WRC+

This post will likely age horribly but I can't help but laugh....it's the Mets

Maybe last year was signs of things to come. But yeah. I think he will come around.

Kinda hard for me to laugh at that since Ozuna's currently toting a 55 WRC+ around with him - as Freeman's "protection", no less. No wonder Freddie changed his walk-up music.

You can laugh at both

Man. 34 million a year. Is lindor that good?

He's undoubtedly been the best SS in baseball over the last 5 years, leading the Majors in WAR at SS over this time. He's a little like Ozzie but with more power and he plays elite defense at SS.

I think the better sample is last year... swanson is the better player in fWAR. 37% of a normal season is a sufficient sample.

Lol

[Heyward]

Lindor is really ****ing good, probably worth the contract. It's the years that can hurt but if the Mets somehow get a WS in that time, it's worth it.

[msstate7]

So let's say Swanson does have another season like last, 4.5-5 fWAR. What's a Swanson extension look like?
