Matthew Boyd the next Robby Ray? I think the Braves should give him a chance.
Dodgers dont seem to want to go more than 2 years on Scherzer. Mets offer is 3 years/129, thats crazy. Mets payroll right now per cots is 220+ mil, Cohen clearly doesnt care about money. I dont know if anyone is coming close to that offer unless there's a mystery team out there.

I'm not sure why folks think Gray is bound for some sort of breakout.
His FA the last 3 seasons spun at 2113 RPM at 95.3 mph, and his breaking ball at 2328.
For comparison, Morton was at 2307 and 95.0 with the FA, and 2960 on the curve.
I don't see anything obvious with his spin rates that suggest he's ready to become a monster once he pitches in thicker air. Perhaps some team thinks they know how to unlock more spin rate based on info we can't access? Most likely he's just a good middle of the rotation guy (using "just" knowing a 2-3 win guy is a great asset), even outside Coors.

I'd love to swing a major deal for Mahle and Winker.
Probably don't have enough to get em both though

Heyman: Max Scherzer and the Mets are finalizing $130M, 3-year deal. Minor details to go only.
Heyman: Scherzer, Mets finalizing 3 year/130 mil deal, there it is.
43.3 million dollars for 3 years for a 37 year old is insane.

The Mets choking down the stretch really pissed Cohen off huh
