2K22: New York Mets

[Sharky]

New so far:
GM Billy Eppler
OF Starling Marte
2B/3B Eduardo Escobar
OF Mark Canha

Off to a great start. Need to keep pushing. Clearest need is top pitching.

Would love to see Gausman + Stroman, even if that means punting on Baez.
Could also see a trade that nets Bassitt or Castillo for the Mets.

Thoughts?

Get Max Scherzer.

Potentially a solid line-up.

Looks like they're going after Kevin Gausman and/or Jon Gray.

Cautiously optimistic there. Gausman would be awesome.

I guess Im the only one who right away thought: wow, the Mets are instantly getting a lot older.

Gotta give them credit - Marte and Escobar for less than 30 mil/year combined? That’s very good.

I’d re-sign Stroman over Gray in a minute, though.

Love Marte, not sure where Escobar fits. Does Canta replace Conforto?

Conforto is gone, Escobar right now is their third baseman, but is expected to be the Jonathan Villar-type.

Mets finalizing a deal with Mac Max, 3/120

Rumor I heard was 4/168, or $42 MM/year.

The Mets are going to end up being the oldest team in baseball...good thing they have a training and medical staff that is totally up to that challenge.

When you have an impatient multi-billionaire who's been spurned and abused, this is what you get. He doesn't care.

Reminds me of an owner in our league who would have $65 left to spend on 9 players and would bid $54 and get the top player on the list.
