Still can not believe All the Alonso haters out there. Hello 👋 Guys we are Not getting Soto - even his so called friend saying he won’t play for losers. Hello 👋 only using Cohen to drive his price up so u better embrace Alonso or do u think HR hitters like him grow on trees. 2025 is going to be another tough year - the prospects we have all slowed in their progress this year except for the pitchers so don’t be so eager to trade Alonso for some mid tier prospect. Some of u still don’t get it a Prospect is a Prospect is a Prospect !!! Also please remember many FA’s don’t want to play in NY and can we really afford signing FA’s that require draft pick compensation- we are penalized enough already with the BS Cohen Rule. So which FA’s are we going to sign that are going to make us competitive with the Phillies and Braves next year - Soto does not count ????

Three starters were signed in the off season as stopgaps. M. is a decent back-end type. They tried to stretch him to six innings. Looks like he is more of a five inning pitcher. He gave up a grand slam but the game was not out of reach until later. Severino is doing well. Houser has done well as a long reliever, which is useful with so many pitchers who can't go long. So, overall, not a bad haul really.

One day at a time. If they win today, they can look forward to playing the Nats, another team on their level. They can manage to have a reasonable 10 game stretch overall.
