Stop Fucking Around. Call Up Conforto

I'm worried that Met fans are getting a bit gooey on Zobrist.
Real nice player who would be handy to have around but should hardly been considered a savior particularly now that he's 34 y/o, has missed some time this year due to injury (sound familiar?), and is currently hitting 75-200 OPS points off his peak seasons (2008, '09, '11).
And with trading competition for him likely, his two months of ABs -- which will come at the expense of someone because he's NOT an everyday SS -- aren't going to come cheap.

Indeed. But he's not a Met � a strangely appealing quality for Met fans. And he has Maddon genes.

The appeal of Zobrist is you can always stick him somewhere, depending on who is hurt and/or who is slumping.

What to do if he's hurt or slumping... or finished... is another matter.

Zobrist would end Don Zimmer's uninterrupted run lasting the entire history of the franchise as the last Met in alphabetical order. THAT has appeal.

I like the flexibility of Zobrist and his efforts as a Ray.

This might all be solved if Lagares would hit some and at least d'Arnaud came back.

Time for my gooey dinner.

Get over it, folks. Comforto isn't ready. His stats make that clear.
