Hate to break it to you Vito, but Grandy, Bruce, Reyes, Asdrubal ( bum knee ) are junk. Grandy is 35 dont steal bases ( nor do any Mets for that matter) anymore, hitting .235 with 30 HR's.. but. 235. Bruce is the polar opposite of clutch. If you need a big hit and Bruce is due up next inning, ship it the other way. You're done. Reyes dont steal bases anymore. Defense is declining. Barely hitting for average but ya, he's affordable. Conforto seems more and more like he's an average player. I go back and forth on whether Cespedes is a superstar or a borderline All-star. When he was first getting talked about before he was signed, I watched all these Youtube videos of him working out. He looked like one heck of an athlete and i was hoping the Cubbies got to sign him. Fast forward now and he doesnt steal bases. Ya he has a rocket arm, but he plays the easiest of outfield positions. He only hits .280, and gives you 30 HR's, but only what.. 88 RBI's this season? That dont seem to add up. Ya i think the Mets should keep him because well.. because. Thats all i can give ya.
The biggest thing the Mets need to do and i know all Met's fans will roll there eyes at this... They gotta trade Thor, DeGrom or Harvey. It's the only way to get an influx of true talent and avoid slipping to a mediocre team for the next 5 seasons. Ironically, Harvey was the guy you would have gotten the most for a year and half ago and now he's the guy of those 3 you would get the least for. Thor is a fucking stud man. In my opinion, he's the untouchable here. Which leaves DeGrom. I think the Mets could get a serious offering for DeGrom.
And no. Matz is not an option. And dont you have Wheeler still in the system ?
Trade DeGrom. Get some serious up and coming bats.
