The Mets' starters in the WC round have combined salary of $87,483,333 whereas the entire Guardians payroll is $82,057,492.

Honestly, I'm not entirely sure how the Mets fix their problems. Payroll probably is going to be a problem, but I'm not sure how they fill-in some of their needs without getting closer to the $300M mark. Signing deGrom or Edwin Diaz long term will put them in tax purgatory for a long time, where the fees keep going up.

At least they have a third baseman ready to take over and provide some production (offensively and defensively) from the hot corner.
