The Sale trade was fine.
They paid a lot to get him in Moncada and Kopech but Sale is the type of player you overpay to get.
They got him for 3 years at cheap money.
They resigned him without getting a good deal.
They offered Mookie 10 years 300
Million Mookie said no so apparently they went to Sale and said will you take 5-150 and he did.

I like Sale as well. He is a good pro but that delivery was just obviously not going to hold up long term and he got Tommy John surgery this year in year 1.

I think he can come back but I don’t expect he will be the same. I think he will be serviceable though as the slider will get him Ks as long as he has some velocity for his fastball.

Dombrowski had one year left on his deal. They didn’t want him rebuilding and they wanted to go towards the Tampa model so they fired him early to move in that direction.
Dombrowski created a mess but he won a title so his tenure will always be remembered well for that. 108 wins regular season beat the Yankees in their stadium to clinch the division, playoff series beat the defending World Champs and Dodgers in 5 games.

The 2018 team was one of the best modern MLB champions.

The ownership has just screwed up the organization as a Mets fan I know you understand how that feels.
