On this episode of Baseball-B-Cast BarJake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman are part of the bid the Mets made to try to keep Díaz. Although they weren’t successful on the dollar side, some wonder if the reliever simply wanted to join Los Angeles instead. The question now is: Where do the Mets go from here?
Later, Jake and Jordan talk about super-agent Scott Boras giving his annual speech at the Winter Meetings, where he discusses all the big free agents he is trying to make deals for. Then the guys talk about all the other deals that happened in Orlando, including the Chicago White Sox winning the MLB Draft Lottery and landing the No. 1 pick in next year’s draft.
