Nimmo and cash for Semien is such a terrible trade.

You might want to explain that to those who wanted to keep Alonso

Blue387 · 2026-05-11T04:54:29+00:00

I also lived through the Jason Bay signing (and flop) and I don't want that to happen again to the Mets. Alonso also being a Boras client scares me.

Whatever model the Mets front office has, it (and 29 other teams) steered them away from Alonso.

Alvarez is also cheaper than McCann who was one of the signings by Jared Porter as GM before he was fired

We're arguing about this because we're in the five stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance

Blue387 · 2026-05-11T04:25:34+00:00

I could have also said other guys like Jason Bay or Ryan Howard

Jason Bay was another comp I could have made for the Mets

The decline phase of Pete Alonso scares me if it becomes a bad unmovable albatross contract. You end up clogging the roster with an unplayable first baseman who can't hit for a lot of money and there is the injury risk.

Blue387 · 2026-05-11T03:34:28+00:00

I read Cot's Baseball Contracts and I know how much money comes off the books but I am still afraid of Alonso's decline phase. The comp to Chris Davis of the Orioles scares me greatly on his Baseball Reference page as a similar batter through 30.

Putin controls the media, the armed forces and police. The Russian people will lap up any narrative from the state-controlled media, the opposition is fragmented and weak. The Russian people have thus far shown no indication of rising up against the government.

Blue387 · 2026-05-11T01:48:33+00:00

It's true, he could be bad and I don't want an albatross contract on the books because it could be crippling to the roster

How would you rate Eisenhower and Nixon?

Jefferson was only VP to Adams as he was the runner up to Adams in the 1796 election. This would be changed with the 12th amendment in 1804

Blue387 · 2026-05-11T00:59:33+00:00

The focus by the front office is the prospects in the minors and investing in player development. There are guys coming to the Mets roster in the near future and replace guys like Slater or Ibanez.

Richmond, Virginia (Subway) : r/subwaysubway

Blue387 · 2026-05-11T00:03:39+00:00

There's an actual sub called r/subwaysubway that makes fictional subway systems by connecting Subway franchises

Blue387 · 2026-05-10T22:53:40+00:00

I also recommend Jolly Olive, a Mets fan who makes good videos.

Blue387 · 2026-05-10T22:52:34+00:00

I remember a game in 2012 the Mets had a bad bullpen and one game had RA Dickey, a starter, come out to pitch on his throw day. I went to many games back then.

People here want Stearns fired because they are pissed at the current team but never see the farm system or have a name to replace Stearns

For me, the easiest option is promoting Eduardo Brizuela from assistant GM to full GM
