One thing to keep in mind is that it appears really likely there will be a DH in the NL next season.

I agree with those thinking Dom’s bad wrist is affecting his hitting.  His swing is a mess now and they probably should just shut him down for the rest of the season.  Guessing that happens soon, as dreams of a pennant completely disappear.

Davis’ defense has been solid (after a shaky start).  He is one of the few guys on the team who shows signs of being a clutch hitter.  He is also still not 100%, I think his hand injury is hindering him some. I think he should be the long term answer at 3B.

We really need a good defensive center fielder who can hit.  Could use an upgrade at catcher but Alvarez is probably only a year away so I think we go with what we have until then.

If Conforto is willing to take the qualifying offer, awesome.  I think he is going to be fine and the pressure of performing to get a big contract got to him.  Would not sign him to a giant contract but if he is willing to take 5 years at $20m per, I would do it.

The top priority has to be getting 2 solid starting pitchers.  Hope one is Thor, who they can probably get for a reasonable price now.  Also desperately need a solid left handed reliever.

Please release the druggie scumbag Cano the day he comes off suspension.  I cannot tolerate seeing him in a Met uniform even one more day.
