Pete Alonso has 25 home runs and 75 rbi’s so far this season.
Anyone who claims he was not worth $150 million for 5 years can go take a shit in a hat.
David Stearns royally screwed up.
It's become painfully obvious how truly bad Carlos Mendoza was as a manager. Despite losing starters, his entire BP and his best player, Green is only 2 under and they've played so much better fundamentally. Imagine if they made this move in April?
I’ve been on record saying I would’ve held onto Weaver. I understand the argument for moving him, but for a team hell bent on competing next year, I’d stick with the known commodity who’s proven he can handle big spots in this town. Yes, relievers are unpredictable, but prospects are even more so.
Congratulations David Stearns. You've turned two Top 100 prospects into three Top 200 prospects and four pointless months of Freddy Peralta 🤦🏼♂️

If I was to grade David Stearns so far, I’d give him a D- for this trade deadline…
Best thing the Mets have gotten so far is Cubs No. 13 prospect Cole Mathis for David Peterson…
The Mets traded away their No. 3 and No. 5 prospects for Freddy Peralta, who posted a 4.99 ERA this season.
Four months later they traded him for the Rays' No. 15, No. 26, and No. 27 prospects.
Thats how it's done.
We all knew the @Mets sell off was coming. But as it happens in real time, it is painfully obvious what a complete and total loser David Stearns is. He is an utter failure and his arrogance amplifies how cancerous this Mets front office is. Peterson leaves and thrives. The same will happen with Freddy. The problem is Stearns and his obsession with analytics over intangibles. Said well by Bobby Ojeda yesterday, this is on Stearns and as a Mets fan, I’m sick of it. He needs to be replaced bc he is a terrible executive. The 1986 reunion shows us just how long it’s been and this sell off shows us how far we are. Being a Mets fan is always tough but with Stearns at the helm, it’s a spit in the face of a loyal, passionate fan base. Do something @StevenACohen2
David Sterns has made three major pitching moves since joining the New York Mets either giving up significant prospects or giving out a significant contracts
1. Sean Manaea (75M)
2. Frankie Montas (35M)
3. Freddy Peralta (2 top 100 prospects)
How on earth is he going to be allowed to make the big decisions going forward?
When Steve Cohen first bought this team, we were told as fans there would be accountability, and winning would be put above everything.
Since David Stern took over the reigns of this ball club, they have done nothing but fail at the highest levels.
Did the Mets get enough back for Huascar Brazobán and Brooks Raley?
At first glance, both returns seem underwhelming…

Mets refused to trade Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams for Garrett Crochet, instead traded them for Freddy Peralta, then bottomed out and flipped Peralta for the Rays #15, #26 and #27 prospects
YIKES, David Stearns. YIKES.
