Holliday and Cardinals discussing a 6-year, $96 million deal

But the sense is that Boras will convince him to go on the market and sign with whoever gives him that guaranteed 7th year (because invariably some team WILL offer it).

Holliday turns 30 in December. If the Mets get him, a 7-year deal might start looking really bad once he hits 35/36 and is playing the spacious left field at Citi...but they kinda are in a position of need because I can't see them contending next year without a true power bat in ADDITION to Wright getting his power back.
