Let’s take a look at the growing 2020 Mets payroll following some surprising moves at the Winter Meetings. Even more surprising was the deal struck with Yoenis Cespedes to restructure his deal to lower his base pay and make the rest of it incentive-based. It is not clear how much they will be paying him, so for our purposes I will leave his salary at the original figure (some reports say the Mets will pay him less than $10 million of his $29 million owed) and just add an asterisk. Man, he must have really violated his contract when he hurt himself!
