Francisco Lindor asks for the moon: 12-years, $385 million

Mets originally offered 10 years @ $325 million (which would more than double the largest previous commitment in franchise history).

That 12 year deal would be the largest contract extension in Major League history, topping the 12-year, $365 million deal that Mookie Betts signed with the Dodgers last year.

If Lindor does not sign with the Mets by deadline he becomes a free agent next winter.

My way of protesting the non-existing salary cap and revenue sharing program.
