Don’t think Ohtani would have happened even if the Mets didn’t go in tank mode.  They spent too much on the 2 HOF pitchers.

The guy I am hoping the Mets go all in for is Yoshinobu Yamamoto.  He is going to turn 25 shortly.  Major superstar in Japanese baseball.  Might be better than Senga.

He is young enough to fit into the rebuild mode and I think would be a great fit.

There will probably be a couple of veteran starters and a veteran reliiever or two added but this is what we are looking at as the backbone of the franchise.  I expect the average age of the team to drop dramatically.  As well as the total payroll.
