The Mets and Astros had to break out their calculators to finalize the financial details of Tuesday’s blockbuster trade that sent Justin Verlander back to Houston.
Astros owner Jim Crane said he believes the amount of money Mets owner Steve Cohen sent to Houston to complete the deal represented an “unprecedented” action in MLB history.“It’s an unprecedented amount of money they left on the table and we filled the gap. I can see why Mr. Cohen probably thought it made sense that if he was going to go, he was going to go all-in. It came together fairly quick.
If the option triggers, the Mets will approximately pay 56 percent of Verlander’s contract for him to play for another team. If the option doesn’t trigger, it’s roughly 60 percent.
