Misc Comment from Above Articles

If Torrens Alverez are both hurt, whose 2nd catcher after Senger

Manaea pitches a solid 5 innings in long relief, getting the W. I for one, thought Manaea wasn't pitching too bad this season. He just came back from injury early, had no spring Training to get his arm in shape AND WAS HORRIBLY MISMANAGED BY METS MAMAGER AND COACHES

Your just coming around on Baty. Which is long past due. Especially as the article said he's been hot since 7/4. 2 1/2 months BABY.

Said awhile Baty should be batting alot higher than 7/8 every game.

And Baty should be batting wherever Vientos is put in lineup. Especially with Vientos high K rate, low BB rate, and is very very slow

Tong 100% shouldn't be a Mets Starter next year. He needs to start 2026 year in AAA. From a previous Baron srticle that i didn't previously respond to

AND FOR 3 METS WHO DONT GET ENOUGH CREDIT. BY JUST METS STAFF

NIMMO MCNEIL have had a very good year. And with SENGA great first half. Are big reasons, Mets had best record in 1st half of 2025

If I were making decisions for next year Alanso 1b?, Acuna 2b, Lindor ss, Baty 3b, Nimmo lf, I'd find a real CF that can hit and field, Soto rf, Vientos dh, Alvarez c. G it's time for Peterson to throw a gem tonight!

Arent the Mets bringing up one or two super rookie prospects next years

And both Alverez and Vientos have to play alot better to solidify Starter Roles. Or possibly Acquiring better in 2027

Both have to stop swing at balls eell off plate

Both KKK Too Much

Both Walk Too Little

Have to Beat Best prior Power years

Without Average Suffering too much

Vientos close to 40 Homers

Alverez close to 35 Homers

And like Vientos 3B Defense, ALVEREZ has to upgrade his Catcher defense greatly

As really shown up, by the Mets 2nd Catcher, the Great Elite Torrens

Or even Senger who is alot better on Defense than Alverez

Happy to see you’ve turned the corner on Baty. He has a good glove at the hot corner and the numbers don’t lie with the bat. I feel relief when I see him penciled in at third and quake when Vientos is there (in the field anywhere tbh) he has also played admirably at second but Acuna is much better there. I also believe Acuna will hit when afforded daily reps. He needs to figure out what type of hitter he is going to be. Which should be a gap to gap doubles guy with his speed he can lead the league in triples. Good to see the team jumping on King early and he’s just back from injury so it was good to get him there. Is the team getting hot? Time will tell. I’m not there yet.

I hope Acuna will hit, but even coming off the bench, ACUNA

IS METS BEST AND FASTEST BASERUNNER

HE IS McNEIL WITH SPEED

POSSIBLE GOOD DEFENSIVE REPLACEMENT O/F AT LF/CF. IF MCNEIL CAN PLAY O/F DEFENSE WITH NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE, THEN A FASTER ACUNA SURELY CAN

GREAT INFIELD DEFENSE AT 2B SS 3B

MADE THAT GREAT PLAY SAVING DIAZ LAST GAME

SPEED TO GET BALL IN 1ST BASE HOLE

GREAT CATCH ON A TOUGH SHORTHOP

VERY POISED, GOT UP FROM GROUND, TURNED AND PIVOTED

MADE A STRONG ACCURATE THROW TO WIN GAME,

THAT THE METS WOULD HAVE LOST OTHERWISE

I concur but would like to see him get a little rope next season. If he can hit (which no one really does anymore) 5 guys hitting .300 in both leagues??? Him getting on those basepaths 2 times a game would be sick. Jett Williams can also fly plus Benge has wheels. Team speed will kill as Milwaukee has shown the league. Small ball can win games.

On no 300 hitters anymore, that kills me.

Ps. One of my favorite Mets ever, keith hernandez has a lifetime batting average of 299, if I remember correctly.

And who should be in the MLB HoF, having multiple awards of all needed awards

But didn't hit homers in 2 big home stadiums, Cardinals Busch and Mets Shea

SO STUPID
