He’s welcome to play the position every time we play them for the foreseeable future. Rather see him get moved to Philly or Atlanta though.
And hitter. Occasional highlight throw and dinger does not make up for all his negatives. Skenes was bad but Cruz ...come on.

Mets have an interesting team. The Polar Bear has left the building but they might hit more HRs without him. Lots of guys who can hit 20 or 30. Pete incidentally went 0-3 with 2 whiffs for the Os yesterday.
Off day today and I think McLean starts tomorrow.

And he hits the ball harder than anybody else in baseball ... when he makes good contact.
Some years you will see he has like 10+ of the 20 hardest hit balls.
Certain great +++ tools... and then a lot of crap.

Pete starting the year as we saw quite often here without the security blanket of Soto. Really stoked about Benge and Alvarez getting a good start and Peralta not letting then NY spotlight get him out of sorts. I’m sure he was glad to get game 1 out of the way so he can get back to pitching like an ace.
If this can keep up- there won’t be any real weak spots in the lineup. Day 1 can always be fools gold but if guys stay healthy and our starters get back to form behind a new ace or maybe even two if McLean gets rolling then could be a fun year.

He has already done far more than Jose Siri did. Let’s hope he keeps it up. You can see he has immense talent.
Worst team in baseball. How can they all underperform so poorly. At some point the Baty/Vientos experiment of are the quad a guys has to end.
My biggest fear is that Stearns prefers to shop in the bargain aisle for pitching and it blows up on him

It’s been a while since I’ve had zero appetite to watch them this year early into the year. Started the year with a lot of promise ….

I feel your pain. It’s been a brutal start to the season. I had to force myself to check the scores for the west coast games as I’m not staying up late to watch the hot mess that the Mets are.

I know it’s mid-April but yeah this season is over. You don’t come back from a 10 game losing streak(and very well could be more). I’d be shocked if Mendoza lasts another week. Stearns should be on the hot seat too. Cohen with his “5 year plan” looks like another bumbling know nothing owner. An absolute embarrassment in Queens and that’s putting it lightly.

The thing that gets me with Stearns is that smarmy smirk he has like he’s the smartest guy in the room. He’s nit looking to smart right now with his off season moves.

Should have stayed in Milwaukee.
