What?
I was reading stuff all indicating 6 to 8 weeks. If true, that is great news!
First baseman Ty France has been participating in limited baseball activities and is feeling well following his team-record 90th hit by pitch as Mariner, which resulted in a fractured right heel that sent him to the 10-day injured list. France’s IL stint began last Saturday, and Hollander said signs are pointing towards France returning near the 10-day mark.
“Ty’s doing great. I would anticipate today being the last day of sort of limited baseball activities, and then he’ll start to ramp up a little more,” Hollander said. “Would think he will be on the early end of how long he’s out relative to his injured list stint. So I guess to put those words in English, we would anticipate him not being out much longer than the 10-day period if he continues to feel well, which is I guess on brand for Ty to wear it and then be back in the lineup very quickly. He’s just a warrior and plays, and I would assume that this will be the case on this one.”
A Mets Yankees battle for him could be an interesting NYC drama, long way from Seattle"The Yankees will seek to retain him and, sources inside the Mets organization have said that team also intends to make an attempt," continues the report published Wednesday. "Agents speculate that the two big numbers for Scott Boras, Soto's agent, are $500 million in a total package, as well as the record for any position player.
LOL ok you rely on a dated Rotowire piece and I will rely on what our GM said in a video update LAST NIGHT. Its like you are always stuck in some communication/time warp.Pharmabro wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 5:11 amFrom Rotowire:
France was seen in a walking boot Saturday after sustaining the injury on a hit-by-pitch Friday against Kansas City. While there is no exact timeline on his recovery, the 29-year-old first baseman will likely be on the injured list beyond the 10-day minimum. Before the heel fracture, France was slashing .251/.329/.403 with seven home runs and 27 RBI over 237 plate appearances. The Mariners selected Tyler Locklear from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move, and he will start at first base and bat seventh in Sunday's series finale against Royals southpaw Cole Ragans.
I guess I could look at as being last updated before the series finale against KC. SO written 6/8 and it is now 6/12. Good news might have come up but I am not bringing anything up via MLBTR, Roto, etc.
It could be me I signed into Yahoo mail on this computer and now yahoo has hijacked my searching until I rip that preference back out.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/syndicatio ... 4.amp.htmlThe heart says Soto will end up remaining with the Yankees. It may be a new relationship, but it just feels so...well, so right.
But the head says the Mets.
Though both clubs can afford a $500 million deal for Soto, the Mets seem more able to afford it. Much has been made about the money the Yankees have coming off their books after this season, but here's some back-of-the-envelope math on these two teams' salary commitments from 2025 through 2030:
Yankees: $647.3 million
Mets: $515.0 million
I would think they would have to beat the Yankees by a significant margin given they are the leader in the Clubhouse...Donn Beach wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 10:58 amMeta have more contracts expiring

According to ESPN's Buster Olney, Mets general manager David Stearns is intent on signing Soto, thanks to the fact that the team has enough room on its payroll for the upcoming offseason due to several expiring contracts, including that of starter Max Scherzer, so they will have flexibility to make big moves.
