Steve Cohen didn’t make billions of dollars from being stupid. If he was smart, he would be getting rid of David Stearn.. He’s shown nothing but being a failure… he should start thinking about it now and go privately to someone who can help him with the experience to find the right general manager for the Mets.. there are good baseball people out there.. in all honesty the Mets who I’ve been a fan of since 1963 lost me when they let Pete Alonso walk.. you don’t let a homegrown player like that get away.. to replace them with Bob, Bette and Marc Vientos.. who definitely has to go sooner than later
It doesn’t appear that Mr Cohen’s skills and experience making money off of money effectively translates to the skills and experience needed to run a multi-tiered sports franchise. So far his hiring record is awful.
Can someone explain who's going to play for the Mets if they unload all or most of the guys you mention? Especially because the free agent market this off season will be thin. Not to mention the strike possibility. You don't think they should go into an all-out rebuild mode, do you? Also, as far as bringing up any guy in AAA who has some talent, what about the standard wisdom that if you bring up a pitcher before he's ready and he gets smacked around badly you'll set him back?
Senga: "I have found him to be way too cerebral during games, too focused on mechanics and release point, and footwork and all of this and that and the other which has subtracted from his competitiveness, thereby subtracting from his effectiveness. " How can you claim to have so much insight into what's going on in his mind?
The turning point of the game was also multiple times when they had a chance to get more runs, but failed. Is there a 1B prospect in development? If not, that is a prime interest of mine as a trade factor. Does some team have someone worth getting & what do they want for him?
Have to disagree with "solid" as a descriptor for Senga's outing. Yes, he was better than usual but feeding Schwarber a meatball when he could have either threw him junk or walked him was an epic brain fart. But, baby steps.
Unfortunately, the Mets now find themselves with the prospect of moving their most productive players since who would want the likes of a Baty, Vientos, Mauricio, and - yes, I'm going there - Alvarez, who at least should get some interest as a useful backup catcher.
Yesterday's loss was truly soul sapping. We're only halfway through this nightmarish season too! The prospect of a lockout is looming for '27 and frankly, I may need the break to find some joy elsewhere.
I don't want Stearns trading any players who have a contract for next year. I don't want him trading minor league prospects. His record is horrible. He needs to go
If yesterday's loss was "truly soul sapping", what would you say about the recent losses to the Cubs? It was a pretty routine loss...they didn't come through with runners on.
