Trevor Bauer Is A Met, Or Maybe Not
Trevor Bauer signed a three year deal with the New York Mets with an opt out after the first year. That seems to put a capper on a big spending offseason for Steve Cohen and the Mets.

Except, Bauer actually didn’t agree to a deal with the Mets. Rather, he’s still negotiating with the Mets and the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Regardless of how you feel about Bauer, this is just the latest in what has been an absolutely exhausting week and year so far for Mets fans. In fact, it’s Tomas Nido who sums it up best by saying:
Wtf Bob

Hopefully, we just get a resolution to this soon because the only thing more exhausting than the Mets crises has been Bauer’s entire free agency. In the end, we can only hope the Mets do what is right for 2021 and beyond.
Well more then likely Trevor will only be a Met for one year unless he has a disappointing year. I still is working on his one year deal. Only real killer for this deal is if the Angles fire Mickey Callaway tonight Then make a big splash offer. In some ways I wish the opt out would have been after year two. I hope they have something in the contract about social media behaver in the contract addressing sexual harassment penalty
