No one has said a discouraging word publicly, but multiple people said there&#8217;s some deep concern and in several cases consternation.<\/p>\n<p>The owners who are unhappy to see Cohen run his payroll nearly $100 million past the second biggest spending team are concerned he&#8217;s tipping the scales too far, and in some cases that they can&#8217;t compete \u2014 first for players and later for games.  Those close to the situation say other owners were OK with Cohen bringing back Edwin Diaz and Brandon Nimmo, and even bringing in Hall of Fame bound pitcher Justin Verlander since he&#8217;s replacing Jacob deGrom.  But some owners see that Carlos Correa deal as \u201cover the top.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It seems to be something of an unwritten rule not to push a payroll this far ahead of everyone else.  According to Cot&#8217;s Contracts, the Mets&#8217; payroll is 33 percent higher than the next highest team, at $384.6M to $288.9M for the Yankees.<\/p>\n<p>To be fair, Cohen didn&#8217;t set this market, as deGrom and shortstops Trea Turner and Xander Bogaerts received big deals before Cohen&#8217;s Mets really got going.  And the Mets&#8217; actual contracts seem in line or better than many (even Correa was $35M less than the Giants&#8217; now-canceled deal).<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><figcaption>Steve Cohen&#8217;s massive free agency splurge has other MLB owners concerned.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">USA TODAY Sports<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"no\" height=\"200\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/playlist.megaphone.fm\/?e=NYPH9044796831&amp;light=true%20\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>In Cohen&#8217;s defense, he&#8217;s doing pretty much what he said he would do.  To his way of thinking, he&#8217;s fulfilling his promise to Mets fans, who have been long-suffering in many cases (the Mets sold an amazing $ 1M in single-game tickets in one day).  He&#8217;s also bringing excitement to the game by putting together such a star-studded team, one that will also draw fans to opposing parks.  It&#8217;s hard to see now, but in the big picture, his generosity may actually be aiding the game.<\/p>\n<p>Not every owner is upset.  One high-ranking management person pointed out, \u201cHe&#8217;s playing within the rules.  It&#8217;s his money.
