One imagines the purpose this time could be to signal a long-term deal. May that occur with the Mets? Let’s simply say now we have our doubts.

I feel it makes extra sense to see him traded on the deadline…

The Phillies (if they are not too offended by what occurred final winter) might come again for him. Nightengale talked about them in his article.

Would the Blue Jays attempt to convey him again? I doubt he’d wish to work with the Blue Jays’ entrance workplace… I doubt there’s room for him on the sphere… and I doubt the entrance workplace, which is pushing for a wage cap, would wish to make room for him on the payroll.
