The baseball season dominates me this year because numerous major signings keep taking place. The team I have loyalty to must make some noise while sharing the baseball field with other competitors.
Big-Spending Mets Among World Series Contenders
The Mets organization entered this offseason with significant financial commitment by acquiring major league talents Juan Soto as well as multiple other players including Pete Alonso, Sean Manaea, Clay Holmes and A.J. Minter, Frankie Montas. As an organization under owner Steve Cohen their spending continues to place them at this top level of baseball payroll along with the Dodgers.

Can Mahomes’ Royals Compete?
The Kansas City Royals under Mahomes run by different organizational principles than wealthy organization like the Mets and Dodgers.
