35 Years of Misery & Counting
Hey, a guy who has no problem slapping a player over a fantasy league game is a guy I want on my team. Plus, I’m assuming with Pham on board we can finally get rid of the inept Darin Ruf.

Honestly, considering how long it took for him to do it, i don’t care if someone had to convince him to do it. Thanking the Mets fans who supported deGrom since day one was just the right thing to do.

Not excited about signing Correa. As much as we needed another bat, Correa has never hit .300 or had over a 100 RBI’s in a season. And he gets injured a lot. Personally, I would’ve rather have signed JD Martinez.

I could care less about who Verlander’s wife is, I’m just concerned about him and Scherzer’s age going forward.

Not re-signing Seth Lugo was a mistake in my opinion, but resigning Ottavino after the year he had last season was a must.

So nice to have an owner so dedicated to putting the best product on the field.
With all the main free agents pretty much off the board, this signing had to get dome. Seriously, there’s no way we were moving Marte to CF and now it’s just a matter of Brandon staying healthy.
DeGrom was always adamany that he was going to opt-out of his contract so that was the biggest clue that he no longer wanted to be in NY. Now he has his $$$ and will pitch for a 68-win team in Texas. Good for him.

This guy’s career has been like night and day. I prefer more consistency, but whatever.

Just when you’re loving the idea of a proven slugger like Jose Abreu batting behind Pete Alonso in the lineup, Steve Cohen and company come crashing down on my dreams.
I can’t take this news seriously. I mean year Verlander just won a Cy Young award. But does Steve Cohen really have the $$$ for Verlander and DeGrom? Then there’s Verlander’s age, etc.

Any Mets fan should want Turner on their team. Guy plays hard and he’s a winner.

Star closer Edwin Diaz and the New York Mets are in agreement on a five-year, $102 million contract, pending a physical, sources familiar with the deal told ESPN’s Jeff Passan on Sunday.
There’s an opt-out and a full no-trade clause plus a sixth-year option in the contract, sources said. The Diaz deal is the first nine-figure contract ever for a closer, and for the first time, it takes the position into the $20 million-plus range.
Damn, that was quick. A day after the World Series and Cohen locks up our closer for 5 years. That man don’t play.

This makes sense as I don’t think we’re getting Aaron Judge and Diaz right now is the best closer in the game.
First of all, Aaron Judge deserves all the money he’s going to get this off-season and he’s going to win the the AL MVP. Secondly, he’s going to stay a Yankee because there’s no way the pinstripe owner’s give up on their homegrown product and future Hall of Famer. Lastly, we need to concentrate on resigning Brandon Nimmo because frankly speaking we don’t have anyone else to play CF and with the addition of saving some money, that’s why I don’t want Judge on my team.
