Steve Cohen took to social media Wednesday, addressing fans' concerns about the New York Mets blowing up their roster for the second summer in a row.
owner Steve Cohen may have just tipped his hand on what his team might be doing with their roster this summer.about why he thought New York's front office needed to blow things up as soon as possible, assuming they wanted to be a World Series contender by 2026. The Mets are 19-23, and with Pete Alonso about to enter free agency, their future remains uncertain as things currently stand.
By the time the 2023 MLB Trade Deadline rolled around, the Mets front office sold off Verlander, Max Scherzer, Mark Canha and David Robinson for spare parts in order to shed salary. New York finished the season 75-87, then made very few splashy moves this past winter.Alonso, even with his contract set to expire at the end of the season, could likely net a significant package of prospects in return.
The Mets are paying $65 million to players no longer on their roster, as well as $81 million in luxury tax penalties. Cohen may be a billionaire, but he showed last year that he isn't content spending big on a losing team.
