    You are a “yes” on Manny Ramirez and a “no” on Alex Rodriguez? That one is odd to me - can you elaborate? Serious question. You're right. I definitely should have. That's why I like polls where we can change my vote when we realize I made an error. Later

    I went for Felix, but I wish I could get that vote back. I voted on the "King Felix" name and reputation. But when I checked, his overall numbers weren't that dominant. Of course I voted for Beltran for the same reasons as Edgy, and Manny(my homie) and Vizquel. If Mazeroski is in the Hall for his fielding, so should Omar be. When he was playing, I developed a mathematical formula to measure a player's defensive value to a ballclub. Omar broke the meter. Later

    From pure baseballness, the 1986 playoff game against Houston is #1 to me. It had everything and was a nail biter from start to finish- all 16 innings of it. From a Metliness standpoint, the Championship clinching games and game six against Boston in 1986 were the most satisfying. Great job. Later

    Your dad diagnosed it very well. LOL! Later

    I named a disease after him. The symptoms were: - a ballplayer who had found success in his (Bill James) 27-29 years. - as soon as the Mets acquired him (a year later), his performance declined to just a fond memory. I named it the George Altman Syndrome. RIP, George. I will never forget you. Later

    I'm attributing at least part of his last season's decline to the fact that he fractured his foot during the season. I think his numbers will improve and not continue the decline. Later

    His career (163G) OPS+ is 62. Lefty hitter (I use that term loosely) Later

    I would love to see this. I don't have an Athletic subscription. Can you cut and paste a portion of it? There's a deep dive into his numbers in the link I posted above. Later

    With the increasing volume of statistical measures we have to remember that ballplayers are human. Nobody can predict what impact an apparently "minor" change can have. I think it was Dick Stuart who had his uniforms tapered because, "I hit better when I know I look bitchin' out there". So when you're dealing with the impact a dynamic presence like Iglesias was, you may be right. Letting him go may be the reason his own performance declined as well as spirit in the clubhouse, on the field, in and the stands for the Mets. It is one of those things you can't really prove, but can feel. Later

    It feels funny seeing Jeff McNeil isn't there, then finding him with the outfielders. Later

    Maybe that's because Semien only played 127 games in 2025 due to a fracture in his left foot and it took him time to recover. Here's a deep dive into his offensive and defensive stats: https://metsmerizedonline.com/deep-dive-into-newest-met-marcus-semien/ Later

    I amazed me that a kid from Wyoming could fit in so well in the big city. Later

    I don't think the Mets will be looking for a left fielder as much as a right fielder. IMO, with Stearns' stated purpose of upgrading defense, the Mets may consider moving Soto to left, or his more appropriate position -DH. There are still many options to be explored. It's still way too early to know how this will shake out. And, let me be the first to predict that Nick Morabito will be playing CF for the Mets before Jett Williams. He's the best defensive center fielder of all the in-house options mentioned. Later

    Other than the financial reason, it does restore a little of the lefty-righty balance to the lineup. Of all the other 2B candidates, only Mauricio might have been a righty hitting option. I'm with Ben. This is just the first of many moves. Later
