Because of that and the move to third, definitely smells of Bo chasing the short term money from a desperate owner seeing red for missing out on Tucker less than 24h earlier.

Bo plays one year at a base he never has, struggles as anyone would, doesn’t like the situation, fans get on him and the disjointed Mets stink and don’t make the playoffs again.

Oh well, he can put up with that experiment for a year, collects $42M, opts out asap and back to open market and maybe the Jays next year, making 25-35% more this year than he planned, with no commitment.

Yeah, this was absolutely a desperation move from not winning Tucket by NYM.
