Part 3/9:
The initial discussion revolves around Tanner Scott, one of the strongest relief pitchers available today. The hosts note that while they appreciate Scott's talent, the likelihood of him joining the Mets is slim. With other teams in need of reliable relief, Scott is expected to seek a multi-year deal worth between $15-$20 million annually, a commitment they argue that the Mets are unlikely to make considering they already have Edwin Díaz, the highest-paid reliever in the game. The conversation underscores a broader trend in Major League Baseball, where successful teams tend to avoid heavily investing in relievers.
