Preparing For Life Without Jose Reyes - Amazin' Avenue
"Guaranteeing six years to Jose Reyes is crazy. Even four years at anything like $18 million seems ludicrous to me right now. The Marlins are said to have placed a five-year, $90-million offer on the table as a jumping-off point, and while they sit around waiting for a counteroffer, I can't really imagine the Mets exceeding that deal in either years or dollars. If Reyes signs with the Mets it'll be because he'd rather play for the organization and the fans that got him here even if it means accepting the second-best (or third-best, or...) deal on offer."
