I really like the Astros backup Center Fielder Shaw who currently has a 400 on base average in MLB and last year stole 70 bases between AAA and AA. He made an amazing catch against the Mets too in Spring training. Once you know what type of players you need to build a team around you can start to look for the players to fit the puzzle. But you first need a vision and a plan. One that fits your ball park would help.

They have a guy Carlson who plays CF has power and can steal bases.<br />I agree with everything you said. The problem is management?<br />They built a big stadium built for pitching-speed ,the former GM,brought the fences in.<br />What to do as Met fan<br /><br />SteveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-90987346035403917012019-07-19T09:14:01.543-04:002019-07-19T09:14:01.543-04:00Last night, the bullpen was strong, but ultimately...Last night, the bullpen was strong, but ultimately failed miserably again. The bullpen is guilty of criminally negligent homicide this year, and the Wilpon's prints are all over the firearm.Tom Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032383157195393857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-74206639526254337812019-07-19T09:01:26.780-04:002019-07-19T09:01:26.780-04:00Agreed Reese.

You can go for power at the corner positions but stress speed and defense at SS, 2nd Base, and CF. Once you have a plan you can figure out how to get there through selling, buying, etc. Think last night's game would have gone 16 innings if the Mets had the ability to manufacture runs? How many bullpen blowouts were magnified by poor defense. This is not a new Mets problem. The Cardinals beat the Mets in the 80's because they stressed fun-da-mentals. Hopefully, one day the owners will figure this out. John From Albanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03757707663955650787noreply@blogger.com
