That's a hell of an AAV for Bo but the term is short. Sad to see him go, but at least it is not the Yankees. Mets fans you will enjoy watching him play.

Apparently he will be playing 3B for the Mets.

Is he an upgrade over the old third baseman?

reply

At the plate for sure. Never seen him play 3B. He was a SS for the Jays and played a few games at 2B.

The contracts being handed out this offseason are just ridiculous. But I am looking forward to seeing him in a Mets uniform.

My theory is the rich teams are loading up while they can because they expect significant changes to the salary/payroll system after the expected lockout next season.

If there was a hard cap instituted it probably wouldn’t come into effect for a couple years and there may be some grace for existing contracts. Even if there isn’t a hard cap, if they change the luxury tax rules or eliminate deferrals teams would rather do short term huge dollar deals until they see how it shakes out.
