Why even say that? The roster as it stands now is a downgrade from last year. Minus Rodon and Madrigal I'd say the downgrade is rather significant. Don't try and sell this garbage on us. It’s part of negotiating to gain leverage. Edited March 12, 2022 by maloney.adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He spent more time taking about improving the roster and maximizing their chances of winning the World Series in 2022. That quote is annoying, but is somewhat taken out of context and nothing to actually worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I would be more upset hearing this after all the good free agents have signed with teams and we end up with platoon type players at 2B and RF and a cheap 6th starter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... when hahn calls an agent about a player now they'll be like..., wohhhhhhh, I didn't see this coming. I thought Rick was out and happy with his team, I better lower the price for him because he's not interested. 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two-Gun Pete Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I'm now convinced that this will be what Hahn ends up doing: Tepera 2/$10MM Jorge Soler 3/$45MM Trade Vaughn and Sheets for Bassitt Roll with a Leury/Mendick platoon at 2B. Book it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rumors before the lockout were that they wanted to ship the extra parts (think Jeff McNeil, JD Davis, Dom Smith) for pitching. I still think the Mets line up well with the Brewers in a deal considering they could use some offense.

Or, at least no one who bothered to do their homework on him. Nah, they'll trade him and clear his full salary. They won't get anything good back but it will happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
