  3. Yeah hindsight is 20/20 of course but we might have had a better 2018 if we had started Voit at 1B, Carp at 3B and had Gyorko be the utility guy he really is. But then Goldy wouldn't be a Cardinal and he's definitely a helluva lot better than Voit so I'll take it

    Always gonna root for Voit though, STL kid that he is

    Voit's a cool as hell dude too. He's bffs with my buddy's little brother. I got to hear to good stories from his bachelor party when I was home of Thanksgiving haha

    I know kikuchi supposedly only wants to play on the west coast but maybe the Yankees would at least try to lure him?

    Dodgers can only trade Puig if Vermont gets a professional baseball team

    I can’t imagine Puig not on the Dodgers

    I think the Mets wanted him a couple of years ago but they wouldn't take him without the dodgers taking some off his contract

    He definitely is forsure now, the Mets are also extremely cheap despite having one of the biggest salaries in baseball right now but at that time they were still financially recovering from the madoff scheme and puig was being sent up and down and had a reputation people didn't seem to like. I think they just didn't wanna give up much and made excuses.
     
  15. AAV on his current contract is $6M, he only made $9.2M in 2018 including bonus. Yeah, massively so.

  17. Can't wait to see the Mets also land Realmuto and then somehow manage to still be the Mets and only win 70 games (with some more foot and mouth disease thrown in there for good measure of course)

    Fun fact: if the Rays signed nobody else, Strasburg would make more than their entire team next year lol

    I really want the Mets to succeed now due to all the hate in here towards them. lol

  20. I'm not even sure the Mets would crack the top ten of my least-favorite MLB franchises anymore (they would have when I was a kid for sure) but they're just such a predictable trainwreck, especially since the WS appearance

    I've never found any need to hate the Mets and I think I'm supposed to? Haha. And Mets fans should hate how they've been run more than they should hate the Yankees lol
     
  22. I imagine your feelings towards the Mets are pretty similar to my feelings towards the Royals: in theory I'm supposed to hate them but they're so pathetic most of the time that I couldn't help but root for them when they went to the WS back-to-back years. And like Royals fans hate the Cards way more than we hate them, I'm sure Mets fans hate the Yanks way way more.
