[Nightengale] The Phillies had agreed to Bo Bichette’s request for a 7-year, $200 million deal last night and believed they would sign him until the Mets swooped in with their 3-year, $126 million offer after losing out in in the Kyle Tucker sweepstakes.

Again. The Mets literally did this just out of spite of the Phillies.
As if I could despise the Mets more than I already do
It’s always the Mets man, smh
Cohen should be in jail btw
We shouldn’t have let him leave until he signed the contract if we were just going to agree to what he wanted anyway.
Where do we even go from here? Lmao.
lol, nightengale swooping in to kick us in the dick, just for good measure
So Dave did his job and Bo just wanted to go to a place where his season ends early. Ok then, can’t fault dave
Well personally I have a new least favorite player
Loudest boo of all time when he takes his first at bat?
I’m sick
Bo was never going to “fix” our team and all he’s going to do for the muts is waste their money just like soto did
Baseball is fundamentally broken.
Just like Lindor, will give it about 3 months before one of the most likeable guys in baseball is an annoying prick in NY
Doesn’t even make sense.
They need a salary cap in this sport.
If we agreed to the contract laid out by Bichette’s team, then we did really all we could do.
Phillies got completely played. He was never coming here. He just used us to drive up his price.
Fuck Bo Bichette
Time for us to go resign realmuto and Harrison bader
Nothing matters with the Dodgers stacking the roster the way they are. A salary cap is gonna have to happen. This is like when Durant went to the warriors, others teams just waited it out
At least they’ll sign a .600 ops catcher with the bat speed of a snail as a backup plan.
I have zero excitement to watch this pathetic lineup next season.
FTM. AM I RIGHT??
Fuck the Mets
Easiest boo of my life when this loser steps foot in CBP next year
Imagine Bichette 5 years from now. Glad we avoided yet another contract that is 2-3 years too long.
What a dick
Literally the Dodgers signing Tucker made the Mets desperate but this may end up being a blessing to not lock another player into a 7 year deal.
All time week for Philly sports
Guess I have a new favorite Met to hate. Good bye Brandon Nimmo, fuck you Bubba Shit.
On June 18th everyone better BOo the BiSHITte out of him
So this is all the Dodgers’ fault. Got it
The problem isn’t not signing Bo. The problem is not having any fucking backup plan.
Running it back with a worse roster isn’t the answer… I’m tired of excuses personally from the front office. I already see the writing on the wall – They will overpay and re-sign JT (who has no interest from other teams from reports). Then tell us how it’s a smart move to not overpay for players like Bo, Bregman and the like. And that we have “belief in our players”. Then charge another $5 for a hot dog.
As a STH I am beyond disgusted, not with not signing Bo as stated, but with the organization being a giant failure. Hell NICK IS STILL ON THE DAMN TEAM.
