- Steve Cohen’s splurge will have ‘consequences’ down the road, some in MLB say “’This game is based on partnership and relationships, and these small markets are going to be really pissed at him,’ [one MLB club] official said. ‘They’re going to try and gin up sh-t and cause Rob (Manfred) to f–king get pissed at him. It’s not that they can do anything to him, but everybody needs help in this game. I don’t think he’s going to get any help.’”

Brian Joura: Christmas wishes for the 2023 Mets. Brian has some wishes for Mets players like "Francisco Alvarez – A legitimate shot for MLB playing time." "Carlos Correa – A passed physical and more of the good health he’s enjoyed the last three years." "Buck Showalter – The knowledge that days off are a good thing. Nobody should play the 160 games that Alonso did or the 161 of Lindor." (Subscription required)
