Episode 133 of Tablesetters is a live, solo emergency reaction to the New York Mets signing Bo Bichette to a three-year, $126 million contract, a deal that immediately reframes the Mets' offseason after missing on Kyle Tucker. This episode focuses on why this was not a fallback move. We break down the structure of the contract, the $42 million AAV, the opt-outs, and the absence of deferrals, and explain how it mirrors the same short-term, high-value philosophy the Mets pursued with Tucker. The player changed. The strategy did not. We also examine the market context that sharpened the decision. According to Bob Nightengale, the Philadelphia Phillies believed they had Bichette locked up on a seven-year, $200 million deal before the Mets stepped in. Rather than matching length and risk, New York leveraged annual value and optionality, reshaping both the division and the market in the process. From there, we dig into what the Mets are actually buying on the field, how Bichette's 2025 season reestablished his offensive ceiling, and why the club appears comfortable with the defensive trade-offs at third base given their infield alignment and roster depth. This is not a full teardown. It's a focused reaction on leverage, roster timing, and what this move says about how the Mets are choosing to compete right now. ⚾️ A fast pivot, a clear philosophy, and another defining contract in a rapidly evolving offseason.

Nick Kirby and Craig Sandlin break down a revealing report from Bob Nightengale detailing the turbulent offseason surrounding Hunter Greene and the Cincinnati Reds. The discussion centers on Greene's 90-minute sit-down, where he made it clear he loves being in Cincinnati, does not want to be traded, and pushed back strongly against speculation surrounding his 2025 season. Greene also addressed his decision to decline repeated invitations from World Baseball Classic officials, choosing instead to remain with his Reds teammates during spring training. Nick and Craig dive into Greene's sharp response to narratives questioning the length of his recovery from a strained right groin that sidelined him for 2½ months last season. Greene called suggestions that he delayed his return or didn't want to be with the team “disrespectful” and “disingenuous,” firmly rejecting that characterization. The episode also examines comments from Reds President of Baseball Operations Nick Krall, who suggested the reporting around Greene has been overblown, and whether this situation is something the organization can fully move past. Finally, Nick and Craig revisit past criticism of the World Baseball Classic from Terry Francona in 2017 and discuss whether those views could influence Reds player participation in future tournaments. A must-listen episode on player perception, injury narratives, organizational trust, and what all of this means for Hunter Greene and the Reds moving forward.   Today's Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=seSmzP8dYpM      OTHER CHATTERBOX PROGRAMING:   Chatterbox Bengals: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chatterbox-bengals-a-cincinnati-bengals-nfl-podcast/id1652732141  Chatterbox Bearcats: https://chatterboxbearcats.podbean.com/  The Stone Shields Show: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/west-4th-and-long/id1828384424  Off The Bench: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/off-the-bench-by-chatterbox-sports/id1643010062  The Flyin Lion (FC Cincinnati): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-flyin-lion-fc-cincinnati-podcast/id1701368522  513 Golf: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjPJjEFaBD7VUSfdVvGjbr1_CmCepLWpr    DSC Commodities: https://deepsouthcommodities.com/  CALL OR TEXT 988 FOR HELP DAY OR NIGHT: https://mantherapy.org

Nick Kirby breaks down the latest trade rumors linking the Cincinnati Reds to White Sox center fielder Luis Robert Jr. According to Bob Nightengale, Chicago is engaged in talks with both the Reds and Mets as they look to move Robert for pitching depth. Nick examines why the White Sox are exploring a trade now, despite exercising Robert's $20 million option for 2026, and what their true motivations may be. The episode covers Robert's career arc, contract situation, injury history, and upside, along with potential trade frameworks involving Reds pitchers or top prospects if Chicago is willing to eat salary. Nick also evaluates the risk vs. reward for Cincinnati and whether this gamble makes sense given the Reds' current roster and payroll constraints. Plus, quick thoughts on the Cardinals trading Willson Contreras to the Red Sox and growing concerns surrounding Main Street Sports Group and FanDuel Sports Network.   Today's Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq6XSuWdHw8      OTHER CHATTERBOX PROGRAMING:   Chatterbox Bengals: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chatterbox-bengals-a-cincinnati-bengals-nfl-podcast/id1652732141  Chatterbox Bearcats: https://chatterboxbearcats.podbean.com/  The Stone Shields Show: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/west-4th-and-long/id1828384424  Off The Bench: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/off-the-bench-by-chatterbox-sports/id1643010062  The Flyin Lion (FC Cincinnati): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-flyin-lion-fc-cincinnati-podcast/id1701368522  513 Golf: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjPJjEFaBD7VUSfdVvGjbr1_CmCepLWpr    DSC Commodities: https://deepsouthcommodities.com/  CALL OR TEXT 988 FOR HELP DAY OR NIGHT: https://mantherapy.org

Evan and Bob discuss the biggest storyline of the 2025-26 offseason: Will the Detroit Tigers trade Tarik Skubal, and if not, where will the back-to-back American League Cy Young winner sign after the 2026 season — with 10 years, $450 million as the expectation? Do the Tigers have a chance to sign Alex Bregman if his market collapses again, or is he destined to return to the Boston Red Sox, even on another short-term contract? At the Winter Meetings, Kyle Schwarber signed with the Philadelphia Phillies, Edwin Díaz signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers and Pete Alonso signed with the Baltimore Orioles. What happens to free-agent position players such as Kyle Tucker, Cody Bellinger, Bo Bichette, and what about free-agent pitchers like Framber Valdez, Tatsuya Imai and Ranger Suarez? For more on the Tigers, Evan and Bob discuss the chances of the Tigers winning the AL Central in 2026 — and what moves the Tigers need to have a chance to win the World Series.
