Yeah, too often it's easy to fall into the trap that there isn't enough relief pitching, and there is nothing anything less than an umblemished record that is acceptable for relievers. But the guys we don't have, had we gotten them, would have displaced the guys we do have, and then they'd be the ones that are unacceptably imperfect. They wouldn't necessarily be better, and they might be worse, and if so, the Mets would have future talent invested in that worseness. Aaron Loup was terrific in 2021, and that got him a three-year contract from the Angels and good for him, but so far in that contract, he's fallen back to the pack and just been another guy. He's a frequent figure in Jomboy videos, though, because weird things seem to happen when he's on the mound. [media=youtube]eh_gw0dnMw0[/media]
