He wanted Cano. He's been forced to settle for the second tier type of player- like Granderson. Payroll is set by ownership and the Mets ownership don't have the funds to properly fund the team. <br /><br />A 130 million dollar payroll in NY isn't a gigantic amount of money. Unfortunately, the Mets' ownership have funneled all of the revenues into paying off their debt. It has simply taken a once big market team and turned them into the Pirates. <br /><br />That's okay if you have a smart FO, but sustaining success without money will be hard once their young players get expensive. Nobody has a top farm system forever. Eventually they'll be more rebuilds. Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03520446193510393380noreply@blogger.com
