"A total heist": Alexander Canario gets labeled as money-minded by fans for joining Cubs for 'cash considerations'

Looking at the current state of the New York Mets, it is quite evident that the Steve Cohen-led MLB team is still busy with revamping and reshuffling even after the Spring training. After releasing the list of injured players, the New York Mets went on to add some depth to the team after including the Chicago Cubs outfielder Alexander Canario recently. Reportedly, an angle of monetary consideration has been the major reason behind the Dominican player’s switch from the Cubs to the New York Mets. MLB fans blasted Canario and even labeled him money-minded.

The New York Mets diverted attention towards themselves after the acquisition of Chicago Cubs outfielder Alexander Canario during the ongoing spring season. Affected by the injuries just a few days into the spring training, reportedly the Mets went ahead to make a major change in their roster for the upcoming 2025 season.
The right-handed hitter Canario was left with no option but to take the exit door after the Chicago Cubs went on to add the talented infielder Justin Turner to their roster. Fans took to social media and reacted to the Mets acquisition which is reportedly based on cash considerations led by the Cubs.
A fan even called the move by the Mets pathetic.
“Pathetic. Cash. Keep wasting prospects.”

An MLB fan even recounted how many times the Cubs have traded for cash consideration
“This the 4th or 5th guy the Cubs have traded for cash this offseason?!?!?”

A fan even expressed sheer dislike for the Chicago Cubs.
“I hate this team so much.”

An X user even called out the Cubs for being money-minded
“Cubs love cash we know that.”

"When you get traded to the Mets for cash considerations."

A fan even pointed out at Kris Bryant’s influence
"We traded Kris Bryant and turned it into money for Tom Ricketts lmao f*ck me."

A fan even mentioned the deal as a heist.
"A total heist...great move by Stearns..@Cubs are a pathetic franchise."

An MLB fan took a dig at Alexander Canario.
"LOL!!! So they deal him for cash instead of an actual player.”

A Mets fan pointed out the number of outfielders in the team.
"Gotta be another trade coming. The Mets have 9 outfielders now.”

The move came as a response to the current roster of the New York Mets which is unfortunately plagued by the injured players. Reportedly, Mets infielder Nick Madrigal was placed on a 60-day off due to his injured shoulder. The 27-year-old was injured during the ongoing spring training.
