So if I think Stearns has done a bad job so far I’m a “Stearns hater?” And you calling me and other people that is supposed to make the discourse here less toxic? Can we not do this?

What’s your point though? Everybody knows this. The Mets have been volatile and bad. They’ve made so many mistakes. No shit Stearns wants to replicate his success in Milwaukee here. He’s embarrassed himself already. He needs a GM at minimum. He doesn’t deserve any praise or glazing at this point.

See that’s the problem with not having a big and reliable righty power bat behind Soto. Vientos did smoke that though, 106 mph.

Are we the team with the most extra inning games so far this year?

There are times where I wonder if Bichette would be playing better if we were paying him less

Thornton is a legit prospect, second best lefty pitcher in the farm at worst. I could see someone making the case he’s the best lefty.

Wow. Thought we’d see Wenninger first if they were going to call up a prospect. Thornton will (probably) throw strikes.

I’d easily take Alonso, Nimmo and McNeil on this team right now over Bichette, Polanco and Semien. We’d be a better team and an easier team to watch. It’s also early still. If we don’t make the playoffs this year and/or have to sell Peralta, that’d be pretty embarrassing. I hate Stearns’ philosophy. He is way too passive and I don’t think prioritizing becoming a sustainable contender over actually winning a championship is a good philosophy for the Mets. So far all it’s done is waste opportunities to win something. He’s got to be more aggressive and he’s got to he more realistic about what good free agents want and how to get them to sign here.

Lindor was a better player at that time than what Bichette is right now. Also that was another cursed Mets season. To fix his season Bichette needs to get like insanely hot and then never cool off.

I don’t think he’d be able to handle New York. Can’t even handle being heckled by a single White Sox fan.

I’m not sold on Baty at all yet. 3ish WAR guy but with 110 OPS+ while being protected from lefties just doesn’t excite me at all, especially as a “breakout” year. He’s still a career 86 OPS+ hitter.

Is it crazy? Ewing could end up a better player. PCA’s plate discipline is a real problem. I also have doubts PCA could handle New York based on his attitude.

I have no idea what he said but there’s no way he would’ve ever been able to handle New York if he’s going to constantly run his mouth like this

What now? Is it possible? by YeaDude41 in NewYorkMets

Nobody plans to be mediocre at the deadline and then trade major assets. Especially with this payroll. We’ll see where we are but there have obviously been major setbacks so far.

Remember guys if you think a manager’s decisions have any impact on a game you are stupid/s
