The Mets would need to get their payroll down to 275mn (trade Scherzer and Verlander) before they can offer one minimum contract.

If you don't see the problem with this description, it is hopeless to keep this discussion going.

The Mets are spending $355M including the luxury tax. That is an expense that has already been committed. But you are right. It is hopeless to keep this discussion going if you don't see the problem with this situation.
