Adding superstar talent without talking to Scott Boras is very possible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Peanut butter and jelly go together really well. But do they need each other? Heat up a bowl of peanut butter for 30-40 seconds and tell me you\u2019re not completely satisfied. Jelly, on its own, can hit the sweet tooth needed for some but others might find it too large of a kick to the system to ever indulge. The New York Mets and Scott Boras are kind of like the classic sandwich combination. The Mets are peanut butter. They\u2019re turning Boras into jelly.<\/p>\n

While the end of the two sides doing business is a ridiculous notion because at the end of the day these are powerful businessmen talking, there are ways for the Mets to circumnavigate having to deal with the most powerful agent in the sport next offseason. These four players set to hit free agency next offseason currently aren\u2019t represented by Boras Corporation.<\/p>\n

1) Vladimir Guerrero Jr.<\/h2>\n

Lucky for us, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is represented by Magnus Media. He has been the dream trade candidate for the Mets all offseason long. Easily someone Boras could look to poach as a client, the disaster created in Pete Alonso\u2019s free agency should hopefully have Guerrero staying with his current group.<\/p>\n

The Mets should be right there alongside everyone else bidding for Guerrero\u2019s services. We can expect the deal to exceed $400 million. He\u2019s too young and too gifted in a variety of ways for it to be any less. Only a few years ago Jeff Wilpon made a remark about how few teams have more than one $100 million player as an excuse for why the Mets didn\u2019t have more. It\u2019s a good thing he doesn\u2019t own the Mets. They could be on the verge of having three $300+ million stars with Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor already present on the roster. This fact has nothing to do with inflation either.<\/p>\n

Guerrero shouldn\u2019t have any problem getting a massive pay day as long as he produces his typical numbers in 2025. The Soto deal helped set some sort of a structure for what his contract could look like. I\u2019d expect something long, pricy, and the inclusion of opt outs with a chance for the team to add to his contract to avoid losing him after about five years.<\/p>\n
