@j_nucero@metsarebest2 Pete could have been replaced by Contreras and Nimmo as DH instead of Polanco.
Those two moves are not going to add 16 wins just to get the mets to .500 and make up for Lindor/Holmes/Soto two IL stints injuries + Peralta/Bo and underperforming.
@JohnDMacari Same way John likes to fearmonger about cops no longer being able to pursuit suspect after Sgt Duran case. He is fear mongering here.
Don’t chuck a cooler or choke out a suspect and you will be fine.
@JohnDMacari Chokeholds already banned per the patrol guide. First case with a six year old law.
Reasonable person: 1 case in six years involving a maneuver already banned by the patrol. Seems like 99% of cops understand to simply not use chokeholds
@Millz391@asollecito11 “Soto has little to no protection”
No clue what this means since Soto is doing just fine.
“1B by committee compared to 1 full time player has been cripplingly bad.”
It only became 1B by committee after the first two options got injured.
@asollecito11@BlitzFire630 Benge/Ewing go thru a period of not hitting. They still help on defense and outfield assist.
If Vientos does not hit, he is absolutely worthless.
@PeteTheGreek13@skinsmets9186@windydanchou It was a bunch of Stearn 1 year deals that carried the team + Lindor.
“The core” being ass + depend on random player having career years is not a recipe for success.
@PeteTheGreek13@skinsmets9186@windydanchou 2024 comsisted of “the core” outside of Lindor being terrible and needing to be carried by Iglesias, Lindor.
2024:
Nimmo: career worst OPS+
Pete: career worst OPS, RBIs, OOA, WAR
McNeil: Sub 100 OPS+
Diaz: lost closer role during season. Nearly choked season away.
@ABC MAGA to busy laughing a NYC subway getting flooded (waters that disappears quickly and no one dies) instead of worrying about infrastructure in their shit state and protecting its citizens.
