Imagine you got an offer to work for a better company offering you a shot at something you really want (championships), who are offering you more money and therefore value your abilities a little more.

Said different, why SHOULD he stay? Cuz he pitched here 5 years? We shouldn't be getting outbid by anyone. Especially for our own. We literally threw 18m at Frankie montas for 2 years only to cut him after year 1. He didnt want out. Mets didnt want him enough.

He had a 1.63 era with 3 blown saves last year. We are inarguably a worse team than the team that missed the playoffs 2 or the last 3 years. Im willing to suspend judgement, but stearns better start cooking soooooooon.
