it’s hard to see us wading into the deep end on years or overall $$.
Its just not going to happen. As to any of the top shelf FA starters, if somebody offers 8 years, BillMo won’t touch that. If the Mets, or somebody offers $40M AAV, nope. What are the chances that is exactly what will happen? Pretty good I think. Nola, Monty, guys like that are as good as off the table. If Mo is determined to feature a true #1 Ace atop the lineup, it will have to be via trade, taking on a lesser financial obligation in exchange for core talent that we have no replacement for.
