  1. I thought peralta had an option for only 8 million
  2. This is the most important thing that bres-slow has to do! Balancing quantity and quality. the budget says we can only sign so many exceptional pitchers. having a fully stocked minor league system seems to be the best and most efficient way to build quality depth! I think bres-slow did a tremendous job of using the minor league system to deal with the incredible number of injuries we had in 2025! I think bres-slow had to rush guys like Tolle and early and I think think year he hopes to avoid that, if possible. the biggest thing for 27 and 28 are the pitchers with good to great stuff that got injured this year. (Valera specifically) those guys could be a huge boost to farm system depth in the future
  3. I like the idea of bringing both of these players back. didn’t matz say he prefers a chance to be a starter again? If matz had better strike out numbers, I think bres-slow would have tried to extended him in the regular season.
  4. Is the pitching staff we have now, the staff that reports to fort Myers? rotation: 1.) crochet [left] (core player) 2.) gray (core - one and done) 3.) bello (core) 4.) Sandoval [left] (filler - one and done) 5.) cutter (filler - looking to upgrade) bullpen: 1.) Chapman [left] (core player) 2.) Whitlock (core player) 3.) slaten (core player) 4.) weissert (filler) 5.) Criswell (filler) 6.) Harrison [left] (filler ) 7.) drohan [left] (filler) 8.) hicks - (filler - looking to upgrade) starter depth at Worcester: dobbins - when healthy, uberstine, early [left], tolle [left], perales - when healthy reliever depth at Worcester: Kelly, Moran [left], Sandlin
  5. Mets fans I met on line seem to think the problem is the Mets training staff and the program the trainers put together!!
  6. …. A declining pitcher and bres-slow is gambling that he gets 1 more decent year out of that arm!!!!
  7. Time for bres-slow to earn his pay!! someone suggested yoshida for arenado earlier!!!
  8. Rangers fans speculating what we will give them for seiger! They think Anthony and tolle for seiger is a fair trade
  9. If senga throws good at the wbc, then I doubt the Mets trade him!
  10. Good point! Maybe we need to investigate further.
  11. What injury risk. I thought he pulled a hamstring last season
  12. I think narveaz had a couple things going on last year! first. He hit the rookie wall from overuse! Second. He played through injury that required surgery I think.
  13. Do you think senga can have a bounce back year?
  14. Do we care what the athletics do if they agree to take yoshida and a bunch of cash from us?
  15. If we kick in some cash, yoshida is a slight improvement over some of the royals outfielders
  16. Would bres-slow have any interest in signing bassit? He may be a 5th starter, but his stuff is still decent!!
  17. It is not about how he did in 2025, it is a gamble to see how close he gets back to his previous form! most of the scouts think his stuff will tighten up in year 2 and have the sharp breaks it had previously
  18. With an average of 177 innings over the past three years, I am not worried about gray’s height. however I am worried that his fastball got hit pretty hard last year!
  19. Bres-slow said he was after a number 2 pitcher and a big bat! he has a number 2 pitcher in gray. he has prospects, Duran, hicks, yoshida and cutter as trade assets! the New York radio guys say he asked Texas about Corey seiger???? free agent bres-slow is linked to is realmuto. some believe Alonso may go unsigned and fall into our lap
  20. MLB ranked the top free agents. But did not list us as a player for Alonso.
  21. What is bres-slow’s game plan here? Why trade for a 1 and done pitcher? His last 3 trades have cost us a lot of prospects for 3 one and done pitchers???
  22. The market for starting pitching continues to get more and more expensive! 1.) crochet 2.) tbd 3.) gray 4.) bello 4.) Sandoval/early/dobbins
