Francisco Lindor has a 27-game on-base streak He is on pace to finish season with 34 homers, 42 doubles, 110 runs scored, and 96 RBI He is the best defensive shortstop in baseball He plays literally every game He leads the NL in fWAR He should be the MVP over Shohei Ohtani

Mets needed another high-leverage reliever before Edwin Díaz got hurt. Didn’t get it They needed a legitimate DH with power. Didn’t get it They needed a more well-rounded bench. Didn’t build one Most importantly, they needed a better rotation. Didn’t build that, either

Have been saying Mets need an ace to pair with Kodai Senga, who would be the No. 2 But… Kodai Senga is becoming an ace His ERA is down to 3.08 after that 7 inning, 12 strikeout masterpiece Mets can sign Yoshinobu Yamamoto and have a *pair* of aces

Kodai Senga, adjusting to a new country, league, ball, and schedule, has done this in first 16 MLB starts: 3.31 ERA 1.28 WHIP 89.2 IP 68 H 113 K’s (11.3 per 9) *Ghost fork is one of best pitches in baseball *FB reaches 99 mph *Just 4 pitchers in MLB have a better K rate 👻🍴

Mets have lots of things to fix, but this core is in place: Alonso Álvarez McNeil Lindor Baty Nimmo Senga Diaz Maybe Verlander and/or Scherzer The minor league system is on the upswing The owner has more money than anyone else 2023 has been awful but the future is not dire

The amount of people essentially throwing in the towel on a 98-win team that’s already in the playoffs is insane

Mets trading Pete Alonso this offseason would at best be incredibly shortsighted, and at worst be an absolute travesty It would also send a message that they’re mailing in 2024 Cannot wrap my head around what the thought process would be if they decide to deal him

Not to jump past Mets’ 2023 season, which should be incredible, but I truly believe this will be Mets’ lineup in 2024: Nimmo: CF Lindor: SS Alonso: 1B Ohtani: DH Correa: 3B McNeil: 2B Álvarez: C Baty: LF Marte: RF Marte 9th for that double leadoff action

If I’m Mets and Tarik Skubal really is available, that’s the one player I’d be willing to trade serious assets for It’s not about this season. That’s a play for 2025 and 2026, when Skubal will be under team control for relative peanuts Whatever happens in 2024 would be gravy

I was told the Mets were punting the 2024 season Then I was told they were almost certainly going to sell at the trade deadline This is odd

Should be noted again that Mets absolutely botched the trade deadline They didn’t add the offense they needed They didn’t add the bullpen help they needed It was a clear as day misfire at the time and looks even more brutal in retrospect Front office didn’t do its job

Mets trading Pete Alonso — unless it’s in a deal for an ace-level starting pitcher who’s MLB-ready or already established — would be a bad sign for what the team intends to do in 2024 It would also be foolish Alonso is a 28-year-old homegrown star. Extend him
