Steve Cohen carrying a $2.4 billion in a briefcase. All the denominations are million dollar bills that he bought off Etsy for $999,999 apiece, because he gets a billionaire discount. The Wilpons enter the exchange with the glove Jesse Orosco threw into the air at the completion of the 1986 World Series. With this transaction, Cohen will become majority stakeholder in the New York Metropolitans. The exchange begins. Cohen hands the Wilpons the briefcase and the Wilpons hand Cohen Orosco's glove, which is the deed to the Mets. As they go their separate ways, Cohen puts the glove on and realizes there was something in the webbing. He opens it to a monkey's paw. This will go beautifully next to his formaldehyde shark, he thinks. Then he sees a little piece of paper in the monkey's clutches. He unfurls the paper to read, "Enjoy the curse, sucker!" Welp, if it wasn't for bad luck, the Mets would have none. The Edwin Diaz injury is just the latest insanely unlucky thing to happen to the Mets. Whomever bargained the Mets' soul for that ball going under Bill Buckner's glove needs to make amends to the baseball gods, or wrap Scherzer and Verlander in bubble wrap!

Assuming that freakin' monkey paw doesn't have a say in this! Anyway, here's what else I saw in Spring Training for 2023 fantasy baseball:
