Brandon Wile

Bo Bichette...

is not going to forego the amount of money he has left on this deal.

He's got 42 mil next year and then 42 mil in 2028.

He would really have to turn his season around to do that.

Add on top of that the uncertainty of what this offseason is going to be with the lockout, and I would be shocked if he does opt out.

Now, I reserve the right to change my opinion if he goes on a mega heater and finishes the year looking like Boba Shett.

The one thing I will say about Boba Shett, defensively, the transition to third base has gone really well.

Like, that's been a real win for the Mets.

And I think it is funny that we were concerned, like, oh, man, what's the defense going to be?

But he always hits, right?

And it's been the exact opposite.

But you're right.

This free agent class is so wonky, dude.

Like,

I think every free agency since I want to say like 2015 or 16, a position player has gotten $100 million, right?

That is just one position player at least gets over $100 million.

I think it is a coin flip whether or not that happens this year.

Jazz Chisholm is the best shot.

He's heated up recently.

He looks more like himself.
