It's just a weird way to phrase it. It makes it seem like Cano lost $37m, when in fact he will be receiving $20m from the Mets and $4m from the Ms for the next 5 years.

Bet they don't and just collect players from other team's trash heap.
Mariners now have a committed salary of $38M in 2021, down from $146M this coming year. With some good decisions in the free agent market (lol) and if most of the prospects turn out, maybe 2021 is the start of something.
I am convincing myself more and more that this trade was both good and necessary.

It was a good trade for the Mariners in general.
you managed to trade a cheat with a lot of money on his contract for an actual return while performing a big salary dump by just giving up a good reliever.
I'm not a fan of the deal at all, I'm expecting Cano to put up decent numbers next season and then proceed to fall off a cliff.
Watching him play until 40 is gonna be fun :/

he'll put up decent numbers until he is suspended for PEDs again >.>
spoiler - so does every team that is expected to win over 70 games next year >.>
Wanting him and having the means to do so are two different things.
This is such an awful move. Great. Now we are in the exact same situation the Mariners were in. So if we don't win now as we try and trade away our second best player because the organization doesn't like him, that's perfectly logical.
This franchise is determined to be a joke .

Ehh not sure I'd want to pay a premium for him.
50-60 million probably. Already spent 25 mil.
As positioned, if they add a catcher and more A+ relief help, they're easily a competitor that can go deep. Don't fuck it up Wilpons
Yeah, I was "ok "with trading Syndergaard before the Cano/Diaz trade.But not now. Keep your best players for the next 2 years. MAYBE Trade Wheeler if someone wants to dish a good OF for him.
I'm fine with the trade but it requires them to go balls deep and I don't know if they will do it. They need to sign Grandal and another top free agent at the very least. Half assing and acting as if the trade alone will make them an awesome team would be a worst case scenario.
Still need Mcneil and Alonso to be for real and Cespedes to not be dead for the team to be good but I like the boldness.

He wants $80 million. I would sign him to a similar contract that we signed Granderson.
if it's just Carlos Santana and J.P. Crawford for Jean Segura that is absolute theft by the phillies.
with Santana included the Ms aren't even really saving much money. and Crawford looks like a complete bust.
Think the trade for the Mets is great honestly. Fans have gotten so preconditioned to overvalue prospects they ignore the fact the Mets got maybe the best reliever in baseball and a 2B who managed to put up 3 WAR in half a season last year.
The cost wasn't that overwhelming and honestly its time the Mets stopped operating like they're the Rays when it comes to payroll. Mets FO has been insanely passive for the last half decade and that approach didn't pay off at all.

No trade clauses are a huge mistake because they don't have leverage
Dude should just leave everything in storage and live in a motel.
Unless Dipoto knows Pazos' elbow is about to explode, I don't understand.
The Mariners are basically willing to do anything and everything to dump payroll. That's the way you read those trades.
end of an era and the white sox are going to get hurt more often now

will be an interesting thing to watch as pretty much everyone could be in on him whether they are planning on contending or not given his age.
