Mookie Betts Future with Bagel Bites in Doubt

Veteran slugger expected to return to draft board

Mookie Betts arrived at the negotiating table with the confidence of a man who knew the oven was already preheated, but league insiders say the situation quickly grew complicated.

Sources close to the talks described an atmosphere that oscillated between cautious optimism and mild confusion, particularly as representatives for Bagel Bites struggled to define what constituted a “long-term commitment.”

“We’re not ruling anything out,” one executive said, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss frozen snacks publicly.

Analysts believe Betts may ultimately return to the draft board, where scouts have already begun recalibrating their expectations.
