The Dodgers are playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers. Adding Blake Snell to their rotation makes them even scarier! Mets really need to step up this offseason to compete with this juggernaut. Let’s see what happens next!
Yep , any team can deferred contracts, end of the day it’s the players choice who they want to play for. Which is funny because players going to dodgers have more money offered by other teams , but they’d rather play there instead. It’s not dodgers fault players recognize them as a great organization to play for
exactly players were doing it with the Yankees when they were ran better as an organization back in the early days and middle times and our time early in it
Dodgers fan here, Soto will be a Met fellas. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Pete Alonso resigns , and Corbin Burns joins the Mets. Looking forward on battling the Mets for the best team in the NL.
@@petercullen2196..WOW PETER?..two separate situations, religion and sports!.. the Dodgers can want Walker buehler back, And have God in there lives!..they don't have to choose Peter!!!.. neither do you have to choose!.. 💯
The owner of the Dodgers is the 2nd riches owner in baseball and his networth is around 5.5 billion. Cohens networth is closer to 60 billion. If the Dodgers can pay for these contracts and build that team they have, what will Cohen end up doing? It could come down to the Dodgers and Mets next year. The last 2 teams standing. If the Dodgers owner can shell out in this way and keep adding stars to that team why can't Cohen. That's a rhetorical question because Cohen can most definitely do the same thing. I believe that Stearns has his eyes on Crochet and on looking to be the one who signs Sasaki. We will see what happens. Just wait and see.
Excuse me that was in accurate knowledge. It's 13 to 15 billion. Cohens networth. I was way off. I was doing research and just thought that this is what I learned.
If Dodgers sign Soto it's cause Soto made it happen Dodgers only offered Soto Short term contract.. so that should tell other teams How much he wanted to play for the Dodgers. Perfer Soto stay in NY Dodgers don't need Soto.
@john.s7559 Dodgers almost got bounced by the Padres. And a walk off grand slam and historically bad 5th inning from losing the World Series. Yes they need Soto.
@@laartwork Considering their ace pitchers were all gone for the season due to injuries. Dodgers are fine and they don't need Soto, they need pitching that's why they are making this move.
Blake Snell has that swing and miss stuff for 6 innings. Which is what teams covet these days. Better than Cole, Burnes or Fried. I think thats why he's a Dodger now.
If the mets can get good 3 & 4 pitchers and good middle and bridge , with Soto and Pete win can get to playoffs by scoring runs ! What do you guys think ?
@@matthewlane1343exactly. Prior to 2024, the last time the Dodgers won the World Series in a full season, was in 1988. I don't understand why people act like they're winning the World Series every year. The Dodgers could win 100+ wins in 2025 and look so dominant and still lose in the 1st round like 2023 and 2022. Baseball is about who gets hot come October.
Well I'm sorry for you then lol... unfortunately for you, super teams actually bring more people lol. Dodgers probably has the highest chance among all for Sasaki. But yeah, if even with short term, Soto even joins the Dodgers, there would be a meltdown.
Your statement of “deferred money isn’t good for the player… money now is more valuable”…. Not necessarily true. California top income tax rate is 12.3%. His $52M signing bonus will be taxed based on his home state of WA. They have no state income tax. The $60M deferral will also likely be 0%. So that’s like $13M in his pocket
Totally, the signing bonus mitigates the deferred money. It's why all those Dodgers accept the deferred money and a lot of people in the public and on Twitter overlook.
@ teams in high income tax states have to deal with this. NY is 10.9%. Not only does CA and NY have to deal with this, but the super high cost of living is also a factor. From the state tax standpoint, MLB should increase the CBT threshold based on each states income tax %
Mets need way more than y’all are leading on. They need Soto, Alonso and Adames or Bregman plus Burnes or Fried, Crochet and Buehler plus bull pen. If they just settle on Soto plus a pitcher or just Alonso they won’t even beat the Braves. Mets need more bats let’s not ignore the offense did shit against the Dodgers outside of 2 games and got very fortunate Lindor, Alonso and Vientos had massive playoffs the rest of the team was very quiet with consistent production.
Deferring all this money. If they sign Soto and do same thing. Then something is really fishy. No way a team can have this many high paid players. Kershaw has to be resigned. He's not going to take nothing. Everyone on one team is not good for baseball. I know the media loves LA, New York and Boston. It's going to kill the game. Baseball is already is trouble.
not really fishy deferring has been around for years Gen Giffify Jr was the reds 4 highest player paid on reds in 2023 he last played in like 2007 people just made that the billionaires are using their minds instead of just throwing money around
Boy I hate to break it to you but if you hate MLB financial disparity you might actually have a stroke when you find about the difference between the haves and have nots in Football.
Blake Snell has never pitched 200 innings let alone 190 innings in a season, only pitched 180 innings twice which were his Cy Young years. The guy is almost guaranteed to spend sometime on the injury list every year. Literally only has 2 seasons with a WAR over 5.
Blake Snell is a stud 1 of 22 pitchers to win at least two cy young years and dodgers don't need him to pitch 200innings and most starters don't need to pitch that anymore if they are managed right, it all about being healthy in postseason when you are remembered forever on what you do in the postseason. It is also where legends are made in the game in baseball and any major sporting events playoffs is what matters
The dodgers are very aware of that they don’t need snell to start 30+ games they need him in October. Dodgers prioritizing pitching depth, although they won this year it’s not a guarantee you can repeat with 3 starters and bullpen games. You need starting pitching and when you add depth you can possible have a 6 man rotation, in theory less pressure on the starters less injury. Well at least that’s my opinion . .
STFU...the dodger's only had 2 pitchers with close to 140 innings...thats it...its not the 70s or 80s..the dodger's don''t need anyone to go 200 innings..your problem is your team choked...you're team are CHOKER'S !!!!!!! HAHAHAHA....you need some cheese with your whine?
From a Dodger fan, very entertaining and good commentary.
From a dodgers fan , you guys were great . Might subscribe to guys. Great baseball talk .
“That’s good Yankee hate I like that” 😂 never change Mr giraffe
The Dodgers are playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers. Adding Blake Snell to their rotation makes them even scarier! Mets really need to step up this offseason to compete with this juggernaut. Let’s see what happens next!
Dodgers fans don't want Soto, rather have Teoscar.
Mark denying that the Dodgers' 2020 ring is legit ENDS his credibility.

Don't sleep on Pods Braves and Phils
@ my bad. Braves and Phillies as well. Fraudres, na.
@@80s_monsterkid28lol @ padres
Dodgers will sign Soto!
As a Met fan I hope you are right? Because if you get Soto I give up lol
Walker to the Mets would be devastating for us Dodger fans.. we want him back
oh no, you poor dodger fans boo hoo haha
You can have him. Go with God.
@@petercullen2196..WOW PETER?..two separate situations, religion and sports!.. the Dodgers can want Walker buehler back, And have God in there lives!..they don't have to choose Peter!!!.. neither do you have to choose!.. 💯

How in the world can't Cohen sign Soto and Pete? He most definitely can. He can do that and then say, we are just getting started.
He wants to win he's not playing.
The Dodgers have multiple billionaire owners
Ohtani gave them the biggest break u can get
Excuse me that was in accurate knowledge. It's 13 to 15 billion. Cohens networth. I was way off. I was doing research and just thought that this is what I learned.
If the dodgers sign Soto I quit watching baseball for about a decade😂

You’re gonna miss out!
A salary cap wouldn't stop deferrals lol😂
Blake Snell has that swing and miss stuff for 6 innings. Which is what teams covet these days. Better than Cole, Burnes or Fried. I think thats why he's a Dodger now.
I thought they got Snell cause they need someone to pitch to Soto
If the mets can get good 3 & 4 pitchers and good middle and bridge , with Soto and Pete win can get to playoffs by scoring runs ! What do you guys think ?
It sets him up for a 6 man rotation to entice Sasaki
So now this is my Mets wish list.
1. Soto
2. Alonso
3. Crochet
4. Burns
5. T. Scott
6. Manaea
7. Adames/Bergman.
And you will still lose to dodgers. Mlb is broken
@ginodee5361 what you thinks it's guaranteed the Dodgers.are going to win something? Last b2b was 25 years ago brother

That's still 2 world series in 4 years
Mets cannot sign a few #3/4 starters and compete for a championship. We’re going to have to sign or trade for at least one are caliber guy.
Teoscar did more than Soto in October, so Teoscar is the better choice for Dodgers
What do we think about signing Trevor Bauer for the league minimum wage?
Doyers 💙 🎉
If the salaries were the same, I would choose the Dodgers without even considering it.
Whoever said that the Mets Dodgers series is over told us a LIE. These teams are still competing. 😂😂😂😂😂
It's over for sure.
@ginodee5361
Yeah....the Dodgers got the pitcher.
The highest k/9 in history of baseball is Randy Johnson nope it’s Blake snell 11.2
Nah, the Dodgers aren’t getting Soto and that is Ok.
I’m thinking we might have to Sign Soto and Burnes and let Pete walk.
keep all and give pete deferred money
Shit we need Pete too
@@Nache1451 I feel u bro but we need some Pitching and imagine getting Two of the best free agents out there
Are you implying that Steve Cohen can't afford to sign Soto, Pete, and Burnes? Wrong, Dude!
If I owned the Mets I’d go after Soto, Burnes and Kershaw
Fried is the next man up. Go get him
If Soto and or Sasaki go to Dodgers I'm done with MLB
I am done already
Well I'm sorry for you then lol... unfortunately for you, super teams actually bring more people lol. Dodgers probably has the highest chance among all for Sasaki. But yeah, if even with short term, Soto even joins the Dodgers, there would be a meltdown.
I agree 100%. MLB sucks
Weep
Guys if we don't get Soto plz don't do a hype video when we sign adames and conforto
If Snell is so far down on your list then why are you bellyaching over him?
I don't see you getting both Alonso and Pete you will loss one
Mets need to defer Soto Alonso Burns etc

Blake snell over Cole next 5 ?? I’m assuming you’re drunk
Why watch baseball and go to any games. Waste of time. Just bet dodgers and collect your money in October. Mlb is broken
Weep.
Get walker on a one year deal
As a Dodgers fan i hope we nring back teoscar instead of soto
The dodgers have 5 owners not just one lmo

Alonso is the best scooper in the game.
Aw you’re just jealous.
not "one of the best pitchers". blake snell is the best pitcher.
Boycott mlb period definitely not watching and definitely not getting money from me Football ⚽️ the worlds sport is what I’ll be watching
