"Mets viewed Gio as a marginal upgrade over Vargas at best"
The Mets "Didn't want to eat a bad contract"

IT WAS FUCKING TWO MILLION FUCKING DOLLARS. If you truly believe he was a "marginal upgrade" (and we know the 'at best' part means they did at least actually view Gio as better), a team that is "All-in" can fucking afford to spend 2M on an upgrade. SO WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T THEY?

IT'S BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE FUCKING 2M IN THEIR FUCKIGN BUDGET DESPITE BEING AN "ALL-IN" TEAM WHILE BEING FUCKING BOTTOM HALF OF THE LEAGUE IN PAYROLL - and before you throw spotrac or some shit at me that shows the mets at like 8th or something in payroll please don't forget this counts like $35M they're receiving in insurance money to pay Wright and Cespedes' contract which they are allowed to count against payroll even though they're barely paying a dime on it).

god FUCK this org .LITERALLY REFUSING TO SPEND 2M on someone that would be of SIGNIFICANT HELP to this team. shit like this is why i go on these batshit fucking insane rants- because the immense stupidity and cheapness of my lying fucking team I love drives me to it
