That's what I'm saying. How is it that we're finding about this 4 days before spring training games start???

What happens if Stanton cannot DH for us? We would be completely f*cked

I really hate Brian

Stanton will be gone in a few years. But if I guess correctly Cashman will be here until I become a grandfather and I do not even have kids yet.

Are you guys all set with your 40 man roster? What's your roster looking like? I come in peace. No, really.

We have no 3rd baseman and our DH showed up to spring training with his elbows f*cked up.

Isn't Nolan Arenado available for the asking?

Who's the DH, Stanton?

Probably set. It's a fake hustle lineup basically. We have a black hole at 3rd base and to save money, we even got rid of Jon Berti. Good enough to make the playoffs, maybe even get to the World Series if we get lucky again. Probably not even close to the Dodgers. So yea...Hal's hope is that we get lucky and maybe one chip one of these years. And for the Dodgers to get hurt.

By the way, I told you about Montas. This is just the beginning with that dude. You guys should have signed Burnes and then taken those risks.

I didn’t think the issue with Montas was his health. I thought it was with his pitching ability. At least it’s not his arm. Probably overdid it too early.

Mets need to sign Jose Quintana.

Did you know that Jose Quintana was born 3 years after the Mets won their last World Series?

To be honest, it feels like a bit of both for us. He barely pitched for us and was bad when he did (but injuries might have been the reason). Not sure if his 2024 stint should be celebrated either tbh.

I don't think the wise move for the Yankees would be to trade for another terrible contract, even if Arenado has a bounce back season with the Cardinals.

Cashman should stay away from another Josh Donaldson type move.

Boone was one of the top reasons why we lost the WS yet out incompetent front office gives him an extension.

Did we get a 3rd baseman yet? Seems like that's an important position to have filled.
