Scherzer to the Mets
I'm impressed that the Mets are spending some money, and there's hardly anyone I'll be more proud to have on the team than Max.
On the other hand, he's 37 and it's the Mets, so I would not at all be surprised if he gets hurt right out of the gate... |

What's the saying: "If so and so retired today...or got signed by the New York Mets, would he have done enough already to make the Hall of Fame?"
$43.33 Million per year. Good God! |

A five inning starter ain't worth 43 mill/season. What would a complete game pitcher be worth today? 100 mill/season Max has only 12 CGs in 407 starts. He does average about 6 innings per start though, so he is above average. I guess he needs the money.

It's definitely a high price from the team perspective. Cohen is worth >$10 billion iirc so he can afford it.
If Scherzer stays healthy and puts up anything close to his career averages (if only 6 IP/start), I'll be thrilled!

Seems like Dave Roberts had him pegged as a 4 1/3 inning pitcher, HOF credentials notwithstanding.

Scherzer's deferred payments from the Nats start next year so they will be paying him $15M a year to play for the Mets.
