MEET THE NEST , very good

There better be a great plan, when Cohen chided Mets fans to show up last season we did

Pete Alonso’s wife Haley says goodbye to New York: “Those who’ve watched him over the years know that it’s undeniable that his love for the game absolutely radiates off him. I watched almost every game, every season like most of you. But, I was also able to see everything Pete did behind the scenes that would never be talked about, written about or shared because they weren’t done in the spotlight. As his wife I can say that Pete gave you everything he had, every single day. The accolades he received for his play during his time there are nice and appreciated but I hope his legacy with New York is how deeply he cared and how much of himself he poured into this game, this team and this city. Day in and day out. We fell in love with New York City and lived in Manhattan for 6 years. We fell in love with the fans and their passion. Sometimes glowing, sometimes… spirited 😉 but always heartfelt. We loved this team. His teammates, coaches, staff… truly everyone. We made lifelong friends over the years and I’m forever grateful for that. Just so grateful for all of it ❤️ Thank you for loving Pete.” (via IG/haleyreneealonso) Ugh, sucks that Pete wasn't a Met for life

Mets just released obligatory farewell video now that it's official

Nice summary, goofy Pete was endearing, during his ASG HR Derby it always looked to me like the other players didn't talk to him much, like he was awkward with that... Embraced the city, did some great work with T2T foundation

A Cardinals club in the beginning stages of a full-on rebuild left Orlando on Wednesday without a trade being made, but it certainly wasn’t because of a lack of trying. With the Cardinals already fielding several calls about Donovan and Romero, they were queried by the Mets with interest in Contreras, per a source, after first baseman Pete Alonso left for the Orioles in free agency. https://www.mlb.com/news/cardinals-wrap-2025-winter-meetings

I agree with you.... And we likely end up with Paul Goldschmidt

The Mets never made a formal offer to Pete Alonso, per source, as it became clear to them the bidding was heading to places they weren't interested in going. DiComo

Same , thanks so much

I get the five years etc , but damn, I'm sad to see Pete go , good for him though

Came here to post the same thing

I'm still angry too , Cohen and Stearns have some work to win over the fan base, the anger is real out there , bewilderment too

This sounds like nonsense from Puma btw

Two other factors that didn’t help the Mets in trying to retain Edwin Diaz: Diaz’s brother Alexis was with the Dodgers last season and spoke glowingly of the staff and infrastructure. Also, Edwin Diaz was less than thrilled the Mets dumped pitching coach Jeremy Hefner. Puma

Maybe , but, 3 million is 3 million, maybe it was that

Yeah I want to think Diaz prefers LA , which is fine , but if it comes out that the Mets didn't even engage then wow , whatever, looks like Devin is the man now

Cohen had an $8.5 billion casino to think about now , I'm sure when he bought the Mets that casino was a long-term project

If the Mets balked at 5 years I would get that, if the Dodgers had given him 5 years and $100 million+ I would get that, but 3 years ? Come on

SNY reports the 3 years for $69 , that's wild , curious to see if the Mets did anything on him

$69 million apparently

Edwin Diaz and the Los Angeles Dodgers are in agreement on a deal, league source tells The Athletic. Will Sammon

BREAKING: Slugger Kyle Schwarber and the Philadelphia Phillies are finalizing a five-year, $150 million contract, sources tell ESPN. The NL MVP runner-up, one of the best home run hitters and clubhouse leaders in baseball, is returning to Philadelphia. Passan

I'm in, all is good

Much faster and no random log-outs

All those fans waiting for their teams to acquire one of the Minnesota Twins’ stars probably can forget it. The Twins do not anticipate moving center fielder Byron Buxton or right-handers Joe Ryan and Pablo López, according to league sources briefed on their plans. Minnesota’s goal is to keep those players, build around them and compete in 2026.
