@TimothyRRyder Tim, what about the weather warming up suggests this team will solve its glaring issues with fundamental baseball?
We keep using this lazy excuse to avoid sayint this team is just poorly constructed.
@GoodFundies We needed to get less LHB heavy as well. The longer I look at it the more it makes sense to free the corners up and improve our DF up the middle.
Semien is also a proven winner and a veteran who can hopefully help fix whatever is bad in the clubhouse (cause it’s not good!)
@GoodFundies@JeffPassan Worth more WAR and saves the Mets 45 million in 2028-2030.
Frees up a corner OF for Bellinger or Benge.
We had offense, we needed run prevention. I hate losing Nimmo but you can totally see why the move happened. Nimmo is blocking us from improving the corner OF till 2030
@GiraffeNeckMarc Mets will save $45 million in 2028-2030 since Semien is only extended for 3 more years.
Trades runs (where we’re Good) for run prevention (where we’re bad). Semien was actually worth more WAR.
I’ll miss Nimmo, wanted him to be a lifer.
@ryandisdier I can’t remember the last time an opposing kicker has missed a 50+ yarder in the 4th Q.
Yet the Giants couldn’t seem to get anyone who could kick a 30 yarder before Koo
