I really don’t want to say that it was predictable that Robinson Cano was going to get banned for performance enhancing drugs a second time, but there was no doubt that the ending of the Edwin Diaz/Robinson Cano/Jarred Kelenic deal was not going to be good.
Thank … GOD that this news comes with a new ownership group in here with a inclination to spend money and improve the team. And now they’ll have an extra $20,250,000 from Cano’s adjusted salary to spend on whoever they want. Imagine if this had happened without new ownership. Jeffy would have already spent that money on uniforms for the New York Excelsior.
Hopefully, Stevie Wonder can find a way to get out of the other two seasons at $40.5 million total with some sort of character clause so that we can be rid of this blight forever and ever. Also, hopefully, that money will get put back into the payroll so that the Mets will have something to show for giving away Jarred Kelenic in a roundabout way … even if it has to go through Albuquerque or Guam or Hell, like, that kind of roundabout. I’ll take it.
The excitement is now off the charts and let me count the ways: #1 The clown car as picked up Brodie and Jeffy #2 Were now rid of another albatross player/contract (they have to work out a deal like they did with the last albatross loser YC #3 We now have 20 million more Cohan bucks to spend #4 As much as I love McNeil defensively I don't so I would use him in a Lindor deal. #5 I see no reason to think (and that's without the winter moves close to completing) that were not a strong playoff team so a real early Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday's all!
