It's early and there's plenty of possibilities for the Mets. However, right now things look pretty bleak in Metsville, imo. Even with the longshot possibility of resigning both Pete and Diaz, this team needs serious reconstruction. The key pieces: Lindor, Alonso, Diaz, (McLean?) need a lot of help and no one is getting younger. Better hope the farm crop ripens and Stearns can pull himself away from the dumpster. We shall see.
I’d like them to see what Senga can do as a closer. I know it seems illogical given that he needs an extra day of rest, but perhaps with a lower pitch count as a closer he can adjust his routine to make it work. He definitely has the stuff to excel as a closer if he can pull off the availability requirements. That would give the staff some more flexibility too and they can go back to a 5 man rotation. This assumes that they bring in 1 or 2 legit SPs.
Again: No Devin Williams. Ever since Polar went oppo in the playoffs, he hasn't been the same. If David Toto Stearns signs him, the first time Williams blows a save at Citi, he's done. The fans will barbeque his ass.
There's no chance he bounces back? What if he can be signed for a bargain price? What's the "Toto" all about? You sent me googling and it seems to have a favorable meaning.
Have you met the New York crowd? Tom Glavine, HOF pitcher. New York is the worst place to play. And the best.
As far as Toto, the "Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore" line comes from the Wizard of Oz. I'm referring Stearns to Toto, as in "Toto (Stearns). I don't think we're in Milwaukee anymore."
That podcast with Joe Demayo was only 8 mins on Substack. Are you running 2 different sites here? As being a Substack subscriber it doesn’t open it on Patreon and honestly don’t believe I should have to fork over more money under the same media name.

Longshot? I don't bet but my guess is that its odds-on they sign both. If they don't, the holes they'd leave would be too big.
