once again, the Mets are facing Cy Young

Why did they trade for a pitcher that can only throw 5 innings?

John From Albany said...

My thoughts exactly. Makes no sense. They settled for an available guy that didn't cost a major prospect.

They must be a big market team :-(

and why can't they employ a couple guys that can throw 3 or 4 innings out of the pen? seems like the same thing every night . .starter goes 5, then 4 more to get them through 9 . . in trouble when extra innings come along.

Who do they need to keep?
Alonzo?
Nimmo?
Diaz?
They’re stuck with Lindor, unfortunately. And McCan.
I used to love McNeal but it looks like he’s been exposed as a part timer.
JD too.
Can you count on Jake or Noah ever being what they were?
Looks like the rest of the team is very Meh and replaceable.
Sadly might be time for a total makeover.
Hey Steve might be time to spend your money on a roof for Citi.
No more Lindor contracts.
A smart guy like you it must be driving you crazy that you signed that.
Not the way you got rich.
Please be smarter moving forward.
You need new “baseball” people.
Goodness, how does Sandy still have a job?
