Now it's being reported the Mets would prefer to stay under the luxury tax. Not sure how true that is, but it was mentioned by a Mets beat writer. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me, figured the Mets would just blow through it. After this season, Thor, Stroman, Lindor, and Conforto are all free agents, but Cano's money is back on the books, so they will have money to play with.
