Robinson Cano popped for steroids again, will be suspended 162 game and forfeit his $24 million salary for 2021 but is still owed $48 million in 2022-23. The Mets gave up their future for this. lmao its actually a godsend that solves way more problems than it creates. frees up his stupid salary, allows mcneil to play his natural position, plus - there's no use crying poor anymore, i know its a tough transition as a long wounded met fan myself lol but we're now the darlings of the league with more money to play with than anyone else, hell uncle stevie & co will prob find a way down the line to re-acquire kelenic from the cheap ass M's anyway, maybe even purely out a spite to the wilpons despite even being a hole for him to play haha, on some re-acquiring seaver & kingman type tip hehe. wishful thinking & quasi joking yes, but either way we're in a place to rectify those mistakes now and not have them clouding our development. also, and i cant believe i'm saying this, but diaz pitched well enough this short season for the verdict to remain out for the moment, esp if they can capably build around him now, whether he stays closing or not.

That's the good thing. The Mets can now sign 3 top free agents in one fell swoop. They should go after JT RealMeto, Trevor Bauer and DJ lemahieu or George springer. I don't think they need to spend on starting pitching, they're lucky to have the rotation they have. The Mets could definitely use any of the others. well i'd love bauer for sure, but either way they do need another 2 serviceable rotation arms. degrom is a given, and while i'm not the biggest fan of stroman as a person we're better off with him on a contract year than without him altogether. peterson shined last year and I would almost guarantee him a spot at the table. so really 3/5 is set, with some vet options ideally getting explored to fill the rest out. noah is out of the picture till mid year & who knows what you'll get frm him in 21' anyway. retaining matz for depth i think is fine but doesn't fill a hole to me, he can compete for a spot but ideally can contribute in a different type of bullpen role (andrew miller-esque anyone?)

Phillies hire Dave "Empty the Farm" Dombrowski to be President of Baseball Operations. Do they even have a farm? That Philly team will be wasted if they can't get it together in the next few years.

I thought he did fine in Boston. The Price contract sucked, but he helped win a title.

Cleveland Jakes
The Jake is still over even though they re-named the field. It's a tad weird, but it'd be cool for people named Jake lol

There are lakes in Cleveland unlike LA 😁 www.mlb.com/news/cleveland-indians-team-name-changeUpdate: The earliest Cleveland can use a new name is 2022 and they will continue to be known as the Indians until a new name is chosen.

Jerry Howarth, former voice of the Jays radio broadcast used to call them the Tribe because he refused to call them the Indians. I'm guessing many other broadcasters or anchors did. I wonder if they'll go to the Tribe or if that's too reminiscent of the past.

Rays breaking up a World Series team for some reason.....I know they got a lot for him, but the Rays were a team that could definitely win in 2021.
