Some people think that because Steve Cohen is the wealthiest owner in MLB that he will continually run payrolls like he did in 2023. Maybe they’re right. Originally, the plan was to run high payrolls until the point where the farm system started producing players. Are we at that point yet? Is that still the plan? On either point, who knows?
Sometimes it seems like we live in a Mets-related bubble. We consume all info we can get on the team from various sources. That’s not a bad thing. Still, sometime it’s good to zoom out and look at things on an MLB level, instead.
Recently, ESPN had four of its baseball analysts predict where the top seven free agents were going to land. This is a thankless task for anyone and we shouldn’t necessarily look to grade the analysts on their predictions. Rather, it’s a group exercise to see who these national writers think are going to be big players for the top names in free agency.
