As a longtime mets fan who has suffered through many tough seasons i'm intrigued by this team.. but am still overly pessimistic. Just wanted to open a thread to put in thoughts and gather others opinions.
Through 20 games or so i know its better than anyone could expect realistically but i still have serious concerns and i'm forever pessimistic..
A. Our defense is awful aside from Lagares and Wright (when healthy)
B. Hitting very inconsistent (scoring runs in bunches), but not threatening consistently.. a lot of goose eggs.
C. Terry Collins is an awful game manager.. STOP LETTING HARVEY RUN THE SHOW.. IF YOU WANT TO PROTECT HIM DO IT.. IF NOT JUST LET HIM GO OUT THERE AND PITCH 225 INNINGS IF NECESSARY...
D. Away from the friendly confines of Citi-Field i'm not sure the mets are even close to a .500 team this year.
E. While i love our starting pitching and the depth there.. our bullpen is scary aside from Familia who has been great.. Not sure it can hold up.
F. I love Grandy and Cuddyer, but i dotn like being old in the corner outfield positions
If the mets think this is the year they make the playoffs do they go out and spend on a big hitter who can play defense? Preferably short stop... We have highly touted minor league talent who i'm sure would fetch a good price on the open market, trade value wise...
Anyways.. LGM..
