Yeah, there’s definitely an opportunity for someone like the Mets to swoop in here and they don’t seem too interested in Alonso at the moment. Wonder if Bregman takes some deferred money that allows Boras to claim a larger contract amount while obviously reducing the actual AAV.I wonder if the Mets are more in play here than has been reported.
My guess is the Sox are still interested but only at their terms so any Bregman signing in Boston likely happens on a similar timeline as Story in my estimation.
