I don't want him in 2022 let alone through 2024.Ruf controlled thru 2024
Hits LHP. If this is the last move then complain we will see. JD sucked this year, upgrade there hopefullyI don't want him in 2022 let alone through 2024.
Depth piece to help vs LHPRuf
Top 4 in all of baseball in some WRcc+ stat vs LHP last 4 years
He is hitting .216 and strikes out about 1/3 of the time. Not a great ops either. He does have 2 sb so I guess he is faster than Vogelbach.Ruf

This package could not have brought back Wilmer instead?Jd plus
Thomas Szapucki Nick Zwack and Carson Seymour
Wouldn’t be going to the Mets anyway: now or two years from now.Boras. There will be no extension. Heck, Boras probably wishes that the kid was a free agent now.
He’s more than depth. He will be in the lineup every game vs LHP. He hits them like Vogelbach hits RHP.Depth piece to help vs LHP
Idk, never heard of Zwack or Seymour. Are they good prospects?This package could not have brought back Wilmer instead?
I don't know those guys either but I much would have rather had Wilmer than this guy.Idk, never heard of Zwack or Seymour. Are they good prospects?
Maybe we get Contreras?
I have no idea whether that’s true, but I’m pretty darn confident that Boras isn’t accepting a mini-extension for Soto. He’s sprinting to free agency.Wouldn’t be going to the Mets anyway: now or two years from now.
Im telling you no one is dealing with Cohen because they don’t want him as owner. That’s why everyone wanted 2-3, Top 5 prospects for a rental while they send others elsewhere for one Luis Sojo Types.There was no way that the Mets trade deadline deals were going to do anything but disappoint this board. Mets have Alvarez, who everybody would want, and three or four guys behind him that are good prospects but not blowing anybody’s doors off, then they have little that raises anyone’s eyebrows. TheMets are currency poor for trade deadline deals, because the currency is prospects and lots of them.
So they are bargain hunting for platoon match ups, trying for relievers, but everybody wants them, and continuing to try to build their system so that soon enough they will be better able to develop their own talent and better equipped to fill needs at the deadline in any given year.
And Boras will tell his clients to stay away from the Mets in the offseason no matter what.I have no idea whether that’s true, but I’m pretty darn confident that Boras isn’t accepting a mini-extension for Soto. He’s sprinting to free agency.
Maybe Wilmer would have cost more, idk. Ruf hits lefties and that was a big need.I don't know those guys either but I much would have rather had Wilmer than this guy.
Im not a huge fan of this trade but you have to give it a little bit of it’s due. Against LHP Ruf has an OPS of 886 and OPS+ of 150. That’s actually elite numbers.He is hitting .216 and strikes out about 1/3 of the time. Not a great ops either. He does have 2 sb so I guess he is faster than Vogelbach.
Would rather have gotten Wilmer back.
Mets got ruffed up in that trade?
Why? Boras is the biggest money whore out there. His history has always been to send his clients to the highest bidder like he did this past winter with Scherzer.And Boras will tell his clients to stay away from the Mets in the offseason no matter what.
He has 11 HRs on the year so how does that work?
At least he gets to go home to where he grew upJD will do well in SF.
Lol ah Twitter, sorry about that should have checkedHe has 11 HRs on the year so how does that work?
No worries. More directed at Sherman.Lol ah Twitter, sorry about that should have checked
Exactly.At least he gets to go home to where he grew up
The Mets have the richest owner in baseball. The idea that Boras would not deal with him is absurd. It's all about the money.And Boras will tell his clients to stay away from the Mets in the offseason no matter what.
They are certainly going for it this year.Padres now picked up Drury from Reds. Loading up
The Phils getting Robertson hurts. He was a guy I wanted and thought we could land.
And only a one for one deal. One minor league pitcher.The Phils getting Robertson hurts. He was a guy I wanted and thought we could land.
This nicest thing I can say is that I have no doubt that you believe that.Im telling you no one is dealing with Cohen because they don’t want him as owner. That’s why everyone wanted 2-3, Top 5 prospects for a rental while they send others elsewhere for one Luis Sojo Types.
