As far as this episode is concerned baseball bat-b-actorJake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman accepted the Mets’ offer to retain Diaz. While they were underperforming dollar-wise, some wondered if the reliever just wanted to join Los Angeles. The question now is: Where do the Mets go from here?
Later, Jake and Jordan talk about superagent Scott Boras’ annual speech at the Winter Meetings, where he discusses all the big-name free agents he’s trying to get deals for. The guys then talked about all the other trades that happened in Orlando, including the Chicago White Sox winning the MLB Draft Lottery and receiving the No. 1 pick in next year’s draft.
