Damn that was a guy I wanted for Mets.

Hopefully we get Kimbrel with Bryant/Daez

Bryant Kimbrel I assume would cost JT Ginn and some combination of other a couple other top 30 prospects, probably one or two of Alex Ramirez, Palmer, Santos... And one or two outside the top 30.
I don't know that we need to pay the price it'll cost for Kimbrel. His 2019 and 2020 seasons scare me. A change of scenery for a dominating RP doesn't always work out, as we've seen with Diaz.
We can probably get Bryant alone with none of our top 6-7 prospects, and go for another RP like OAK just did with Chafin, who'll still fill a late inning need, but not cost our top prospects. Ryan Tepera can easily be a throw in on a Bryant deal, as he's also a rental.
Did you see Baez after his walk-off last night? Pretty funny.Quote:

Yeah I really don’t want Baez.
Him and Lindor are 1/2 for the most overrated guys in the game…Lindor is at least likable. The majority of the 2016 Cubs are whiny little brats, honestly.
Hope AG takes Baez down today lol.

Eh. I don't like how Baez reacted by hitting a fly ball that would have been an out if it mattered and the fielder cared to catch it. Acting like that on basically a sac fly? Gimme a break.Quote:

Anyone worried that Kumar Rocker hasn't signed yet?
Drat and double drat.
We missed the boat on Clay Holmes.
I don't know much about his personality, but his K rates are really troubling. Already 130 Ks in 2021, on pace for a career-worst 200 strikeouts. Not a fit for this lineup, IMO.Quote:

So I’ve been trying to compile a list of guys who will be traded and who I think is probably the best addition for the Mets.
We’ll get this one out do the way first…Guys who I don’t think are likely to be traded:
Jose Ramirez, Kyle Hendricks, Ketel Marte, Joey Gallo, Meril Kelly, German Marquez, Byron Buxton, Taylor Rogers, Cedric Mullins and Trea Turner…could be missing a few guys.
Guys who I think will get traded:
Starting pitchers:
Max Scherzer
Tyler Anderson
John Gray
Zach Davies
Jose Berrios (maybe? this one is conflicting)
Kyle Gibson
Danny Duffy
Michael Pineda
Relievers:
Craig Kimbrel
Ian Kennedy
Joakim Soria
Richard Rodriguez
Ryan Tepera
Daniel Hudson
Position players:
Kris Bryant
Javier Baez
Anthony Rizzo
Trevor Story
Johnathon Schoop
Whitt Merrifield
Eduardo Escobar
Starling Marte
Josh Donaldson
I’d like to see the Mets get a RHB…preferably Bryant, I’d be okay with Story, too. Donaldson only if the Mets get Berrios back, too.
As far as pitchers go, I think Scherzer ends up on the Giants or Padres. Outside of Scherzer, I’d want to see the Mets get Gray or Anderson. For relievers, Kimbrel is at the top of my list but Daniel Hudson and Ian Kennedy would be strong #2s
Whatever pitcher the Mets get, I think putting a 6 man rotation when everyone is healthy is the smart thing to do…also makes pushing the starters a little easier. deGrom/Stroman/Walker/Carrasco/Megill/Anderson would be a great 6 man.
I think the Mets end up with Bryant or Story…we also get a pitcher or two back from either team. Davies + Tepera from the Cubs or Gray from the Rockies…we’ll see.
