Why is it dumb? Cohen is worth over $20B, there is no salary cap...

and he wants to win. Cohen can continue to make plenty of money at his day job, and he bought the Mets to win. So many of the other owners could spend much more, but they just choose not to.

Money would be better spent on a few players and overall get more productio

I think it's more the length than the worth. Judge's is too long too.

This is a pretty good breakdown of the contract...
BB Hokie • 12/11/24 09:26 AM ET
I did not know he had an opt-out clause after 5 years, that's the first
