Stroman is a solid pitcher having a career season. Actually half-season. One that NOBODY predicted.
We all know the rumors as to why the Mets didn't try to pursue him. None of us know the truth.
Let it go man, let it go. As an old teacher of mine used to say, the Good Lord put our eyes in the front, and not in the back, for good reason.
My take is that the Mets should try to win with the team that they have and, if and when it becomes a lost cause, play all these AAA guys and see what they have. Maybe the vets will get their act together and make a run. Maybe they can't and, if that's true, the Mets make the shift and create a lengthier body of work to evaluate the prospects. I don't care to see the Mets making trades of any substance until they get their front office squared away.
Yes please do include Vientos in Honorable Mention. While technically he is no longer a prospect, he really still is.
This Christian Scott he's not 24 years old or anything already is he? Might be one to keep an eye on.
He was drafted out of college in 2021, fifth round. To make AA in less than two years is not bad.
You can say the same thing about most of the Mets last year. Guys put up great numbers, then this year looks a lot like the 2021 and 2020 seasons. We need to let go of last year's 101 wins. 🤣 😁
The same reason your eyes are in front is why bad things sneak up on you. You're blind to what's around you.😉
Agree. Eppler just makes the team worse. Probably best sitting tight until he is canned.
Yeah. It's just frustrating to see the way that other teams are able to do it. That kid Abbott in Cinncy who is the same age looks like he might have the makings of an ace. And our chief division rivals who were hit with injuries to their rotation called up a 20 year old who went in the 7th round in that same draft and has already had 3 effective starts in a row. I guess that's part of the reason why they're 21 games over .500 while we're a sinking ship. Guys like Megill who I'm sure was counted on a quality young starter by our standards, is actually turning 28 next month and yet still is nothing but a big question mark. I can't remember the last time we unleashed a stud, YOUNG starter who hit the ground running and became a staff centerpiece quickly.
YouTubeTV is dropping SNY (11:59 PM June 30th). I won't be able to watch games come July. Is that a bad thing considering how things are going? 🤔
Yup - just cancelled my YT TV...was on the fence when they ditched MLB Network now i'm done with it. Maybe re-up for football in September.
Tylor Megill demoted to AAA Syracuse. Journeyman minor league reliever Vinny Nittoli called up, They will need a starter on Tuesday.
Good move. He’s awful. Dump Carrasco next.
Added Douglas Orellana as another promising arm in system having a good year up until this point. Vientos a HR.

Drafted last year from college. Having a nice season and they'll jump him to AA soon. Have read some reports that his FB is just average but has a good slider.

YouTube TV drops SNY: How to watch Mets games without cable
Mets fans who want to watch their team on YouTube TV are out of luck.
If Cohen didn't have such a horrific reputation as a businessman (insider trading scandals for 30years) and as a person (see all his martial complaints) do you feel the Mets would not have had to settle for their 5th choice for GM and thereby not be in such a mess this year.
Maybe highly skilled people not wanting to work for cohen is the real reason the Mets are in this mess despite 400mm payroll.
Just a thought.

Would you do it? Mets would have to have a contract with Ohtani in place before this is ever finalized.
No Alvarez and get a historic player. It merits serious consideration, and I'm not sure that the Angels do it.Would you do it? Mets would have to have a contract with Ohtani in place before this is ever finalized.
Would probably do it if Ohtani signed an extension. Not doing it if we only get him for 2 months and then he walks. I think they added Rendon and Marte for money purposes but would remove those 2. However I think the Angels would think they could do better.
Interesting take. I know two people that work in the Cohen organization. One direct for Cohen, my neighbor, and another gentleman high in the org. Both love Cohen so I don’t know about horrific reputation. But he’s a corporate raider and those guys generally don’t make friends
