By the way, just hearing even bogus reread the tweets from Abdul Carter. I mean, he's played more defense on social media than he has on the field this year for the Giants. Good God. He's sacking Dan Dug and he can't get to a quarterback to save his life this year. Anyway, we'll continue with the calls about Abdul Carter in just a second. 888808-101. We wanted to get into this. So you saw Josh Naylor and the Mariners.

Did you see Depoto earlier in the off-season talking about like Nailer was great for us, but we wish him well wherever he goes? No, I didn't see that. Basically dismissing it to the point where some people in the game, like, this is bad for the sport. The Mariners don't want to spend any money. Naylor was great with them, only to have weeks later apparently come to an agreement with Naylor.

Now, we don't have the details on the finances. Naylor was great with them, only to have weeks later apparently come to an agreement with nailor.

Now, we don't have the details on the finances of it yet, but it is reportedly worth or reportedly a five-year deal.

What do you think, BT, that that means for Pete Alonzo?

Okay, so number one, I think that a, a couple of things jumped out right away.

Number one, I think the Red Sox are going to be strongly, strongly involved here.

For Pete? For Pete. I'm just talking about Pete right now. Obviously talking about the nail or

signing, the residuality, what does it mean for Pete? I think that the plan B for the Mets is now altered.

Because let's say Pete goes to Boston.

I know there was a report.

Maybe Pete goes to the Orioles to add some early interests.

I don't think that's going to happen, but just responding to reports.

Well, that's somebody that is now less, is not there for the Mets to pivot to if Pete goes somewhere else.

Which means they could either pony up an extra year

or more money than they want to because now they're a little desperate because Nailer

are staying in Seattle. They can't get him if Pete bounces. That's my first instinct. My other

instinct is I think that Pete without the qualifying offer is going to have a much better off season

this year. We've talked about this. And with the Red Sox getting Devers off their books, here's my warning flair for Met fans, those of you who want Pete no matter what back with the Mets. If Bregman doesn't resign with Boston, Pete's going to be a Red Sock. That's the Lynch move. That's the Lynchpin move right there. You see, I don't think Nailer was ever in the Mets stall process. So to me, that's not a fallback. The fullback option wouldn't have been, we're not going to spend X amount on Pete, so we're going to go pay Josh Nailer. Josh Nellar is a fraction of the player Pete Alonzo is. Now, he's also two and a half years younger than Pete Alonzo. So when I hear five years for Nailer, who I think while younger is far inferior to Pete Alonzo,

also factoring that he hasn't done it in New York, my main takeaway from this is not, oh, like I saw it in the post,

the Mets missed a fallback option.

Says who? When has Nailor ever been a rumor or a thought with the Mets? It's not even the case. As a matter of fact, it's been reported on two occasions by Will Sam and the Athletic and Andy Martino of S&Y that the Mets plan B, the immediate plan B would be Jeff McNeil and Mark Vientos as a platoon. So, yeah, again, but the idea of Nailer was not,
