Why would they go after Goldy when Santana can be had for half the price , had better offensive numbers all around and just won a GOLD GLOVE. He can be had for 6 mill at his age for one year before Vlad Jr. The play is and should be Bregman and defense at first with pitching. Move Vientos to DH and you sustain WS appearances and chips for years to come
Pete has shown more discipline at the negotiating table this winter than he has during the last two seasons with two strikes against a breaking pitch low and away in the dirt.
It doesn't work that way, wish it did... if they would have signed Shohei Ohtani along with signing Soto and Roki Sasaki and trading for VLAD... yeah, kings of New York
His first couple of years with the Mets I was very hard on Lindor. He has grown and matured into a true leader. He is the clear leader of this team and he sets the tone. His play and leadership was the biggest reason we went on the run we went on last season.
I played baseball in college and you are misjudging ALONSO'S defense. He saved the rest of the infielders lots of errors. PLUS HE CAN REALLY PROTECT JUAN SOTO.
Great! Juan Soto and pray for rain? We have a sub-par starting staff. Now we’re looking at a 38-year-old first baseman? WHAT is the point of signing a Soto, if you’re going the bargain-basement route the rest of the way? Frankie 5-ERA Montas? Relievers being converted into starters? And you’re pumped about Goldschmidt? Let’s see how pumped you are during the season. Can’t believe you’re not disappointed? If Cohen is going to suddenly get frugal, I ask you again : WHAT was the point of signing Soto?
This comment is absolutely 💯 percent correct!!! How the hell are you going to sign SOTO then go get a washed up 38 year old first basemen..... These people don't know baseball if there saying the Mets should sign Goldy instead of giving the Polar Bear 4 years at 100.... Pete's worth 5 and 125 easy!!!! Are you kidding me? With the way he has been as a Met on the field and off. LFGM!!! OMG!!!! BRING BACK THE POLAR BEAR 🐻❄️
There’s something behind the scenes about this situation that we (Mets fans) don’t know much about if Alonso and the Mets have so much in common with each other they would have come to agreement a long time ago so I think that there is something going on
The issue is Alonso is waaay overvaluing his appeal in free agency, but hasn’t figured that out yet. When he does, and he’s willing to sign 3 years 75 million with opt outs each year, that’s what he’ll end up signing.
@ but don’t you think that they have come up to it soon he (Alonso) know that the market is not there and he (Alonso) would have gone to the Mets and come to term
Yeah what’s going on is the Mets are a family and Pete is too old for the family so the Mets don’t want to pay their family for more than a year so next year they can dump their family member and go get a new family member called Vlad jr.
NO thanks to Goldschmidt or Arenado. Both are on the wrong side of their career. Just sign Alonso. What are they doing? Did they sign Soto so they could add a bunch of question marks to fill in all their other holes? It isn't January yet, but I'm going to start getting antsy if this continues much longer.
When looking at Goldschmidt his exit velocity wasn't bad. His WALK rate tanked from around 90% to under 40%. Wardy I think you need to do a deep dive. I think this could be a homerun if he fixes that.
I think Pete is a very reliable 1b glove, maybe these are the finer parts of the game which I need to bone up further on - but he average or poor which I have heard seems very harsh - yes he is no base runner, but for me he deserves a good contract but as Wardy has said with clauses later down the line
Or he might move on to another team. That’s the issue. I think the market is currently favorable to the Mets in this standoff, but in only takes one team to roll the dice on that extra year to get Pete. It’s a game of chicken, and I’m uncertain about who is going to blink.
I don’t think Goldy is washed. Just had a down year. Might have more in the tank. I do think it’s smoke to scare Alonso but if the plan is to go all out for Vladdy next year, Paul is a good 1 year stop gap
I’d love to see Alonso back to the Mets, but he needs to adjust his free agency speciations; he is not getting 200M plus. As for Goldschmidt, if the Mets sign him is just a 1 or 2 year deal which would mean they go all in on Vlad JR next year.
If the Mets don’t give up the farm to get Vlady now, like the Yankees similarly did for Soto last year, then sign Pete now. Then if they get Vlady next year, Pete can DH as he will be older anyway. If they were to trade for Vlady now, there’s no way Cohen will lose him next year plus Vlady will see the better winning future he could have. Sign Manaea , a reliever (Scott) and hope to sign Sasaki.
I really think if Pete would sign for a high AAV for four years this would already be done. I’m guessing they are a couple of years apart on length, and it is basically a game of chicken at this point. Can they meet at 5 years? I guess we’ll see.
I feel kinda bad for Alonso, I feel like he was supposed to be a huge contract guy, but he just hasn’t been able to match that rookie year. Dude must be so bummed. Hope he comes back to Mets so he can at least win with us instead of disappear into obscurity with someone else.
Alonso's slow swing depends on luck or guessing what the pitcher is throwing. The problem is, most teams know how to pitch him and Alonso appears to make little or no adjustments. How many hitters get jammed on pitches that never are near the strike zone? Alonso seems to get busted inside where he swings and misses at pitches that almost hit or he pops up weakly to the right side. If this doesn't happen, he's wildly swinging at pitches that are way outside, or w/being fooled, he takes strikes on the outside corner. I would only want Alonso back if he is willing to make adjustments and/or swing mechanic changes. Alonso is so talented that he could re-tool his swing so that it would not be so wristy and slow through the strike zone.
I would offer Pete 5 years at 30m a year or 3 years at 35m. Both overpays but Pete is more valuable to the Mets than anyone else. The five years is a long time but it coincides with the 5 years before Soto has the option to opt out. Pete will lengthen the Mets lineup as needed. He plays everyday without taking up the DH spot. I think he is a better fit for the Mets than anyone else. Pete knows that. Hopeful that gets done.
Now everyone is a Pete Alonso expert! Blah Blah Blah! Give it a Break! Pete Alonso still the Best option in front or behind Soto! Pete is not declining, his still got some POP in his Bat!!! FantasticoMets69!
Stearns, as smart as he clearly is, needs to learn to “read the room.” Bringing Pete back, even if you think it is on a slight overpay, does a ton in terms of good will with the fan base. You can’t mortgage the future, I get it … but maybe some flexibility in getting this done. The fans want it, and a power bat behind Soto is meaningful. Don’t lose Pete over one year. That’s my thought.
Great stuff again Wardy. Stearns most likely will not over pay for Pete. Cohen and Mets overpaid for Soto becuse is was the current market and a once in a generation player available to them. Pete does not fit that profile at this time. The Mets would like to have Pete back but not at his asking price. One would expect the Mets and Pete to come to compromise in the next 4 weeks or so.
I also do buy into the narrative that Cohen personally intervened in the signing of Soto in a way he won’t in general. I think he’s largely given the keys to Stearns, but he simply demanded doing anything it took to get Soto.
The difference is the Mets can get Goldy on a short-term deal, and Stearns is generally allergic to long-term deals (yes, I know … Soto for 15 … exception to the rule, and likely Cohen driven).
What you talking about he wants to be here, he hired Scott Boras, he wants to be where the most money is for him which shouldn't be the Mets just betting against themselves which I'm sure it is.
Mets don’t need Bergman to come here and retire. We have three players, in the minors, who can possibly play 3rd at a fraction of the cost, and they aren’t 30yo. Pete would have a better year with Soto hitting behind him . And his fielding is good.
Honestly the longer this goes on the more I’m in favor of Goldschmidt or someone else on a 1 year deal and going for vladdy next year. I love Pete but he’s already 30 and he’s looking for 25-30 a year. I love the guy but weregynna have to sign him to 6-7 years unless they overpay on a 2-3 year deal. And you know once he hits 35 he’s gunna regress rapidly. I think we would be favorites going for vladdy next year.
@jerseygrit5402 b you don't know that I saw King and play with the Mets in 1975 in Liberty 1976 the same night that Tom seaver got traded in 1977 so don't tell me who I never saw play
Sign Pete to a mutally acceptable contract! We need at least one front-line starters. Also, two solid bullpen guys, and a good DH, stop dicking around!!
37-38 yr old Goldschmidt?? With all due respect… Is ridiculous! You have some amazing views and thoughts regarding the Mets. This is not one of them :- /
Bregman and Alonso are seeking the same amount of money. Why would you pay that to a total stranger to the locker room, sign the man that's already been here. People need to stop saying that Alonso will sign a one year deal, why would he put himself through free agency rumors and stress all over again in less than a year?
Mets don’t want their homegrown family member back for more than a year or two bc they want to dump their family member to pick up a new family member Vlad Jr next year. That’s how families work.
I understand this is your living, and I totally get that. Honestly, I have been trying to get on board and subscribe, but the constant context of nothingness is absolutely exhausting. Not even sports radio or ESPN covers the METS this way. Please tone it down and hit the waves with actual legit content.
I Hope Dave Stearns signs Pete for 3 yrs. . Let Pete play 1st for 25 , Then Go Bid for VLadi nex winter , Pete could Potentially be The next DH with Vlad at 1st. Imagine That Lineup then with Lindor, Soto , Pete ,, Vientos And Vladimir.. . And Dont Forget Alvarez, Nimmo and Acuña ! UNSTOPPABLE !!!
Make Alonso the DH go and sign Bregman for 3rd move Ventios to 1st and sign Winker and Iglesias spell Alonso sys at DH with Winker and interchangeable moving Venyios and Alonso between 1st and DH
@@StanddividedfalltogetherI don’t think anyone knows the particulars, but I think the subtext is clear - Pete wants a long-term contract and Stearns wants a shorter-term deal. To guess, I’d guess that the Mets are trying to squeeze him down to four years and Pete, who surely once was looking for seven, is probably digging in at six. If that’s the case, I hope they can meet in the middle at a slightly elevated AAV.
The Mets are interested in everyone, but nothing is happening. The Mets are happy with Soto. You buy a Mercedes Benz (Soto) & you than buy cheap parts to fix your Mercedes Benz.
It doesnt much matter who gets signed to play 1b / dh as long as its only a 1 yr deal. 3b should be in house option of Mauricio or Vientos. Best option is going all in for Vlad next year. Who cares home grown or not. I prefer the better player. Vlad>alonso. Smart move is not resign Alonso unless who goes for 1 year, 2 at most prove it contract. If not Goldie, Santana or Vientos there this year. Who cares. Keep it cheap and similar production
@Pcbdude82 you mean you don't want some1 who better defensively at first base than Christian walker and Pete Alonso combined in Nolan Arenado. You mean you like more than 170 SO per season lol do you also like one trick ponies who can only play 1st base lol ... Let's hear a better idea "externally" Genius! Please keep payroll, keeping our top prospects and being realistic in mind!
As it stands we might be a fourth place team maybe cohen needs to rethink stearns . Everyone says look what David did last year ok but as of now they have not replaced any players of the caliber that they lost they are not good worst pitching staff in the majors not even close to the As
Stop disrespecting Vientos, we do not need Bregman. Vientos proved last season he can be our future 3rd baseman. Either re-sign or get Santana for a year then focus on pitching !
Help us get to 350+ likes & 30K subs! Mets fans, what’s YOUR thoughts on Alonso, Goldy, and everything else we discussed?
Why would they go after Goldy when Santana can be had for half the price , had better offensive numbers all around and just won a GOLD GLOVE. He can be had for 6 mill at his age for one year before Vlad Jr. The play is and should be Bregman and defense at first with pitching.

Pete has shown more discipline at the negotiating table this winter than he has during the last two seasons with two strikes against a breaking pitch low and away in the dirt.
I’m hearing Keith Hernandez is interested in a long term deal
He would be good for us.
I would give Alonso a 4 year 105 million contract with a 5th year player option

The Mets are interested in everyone, but nothing is happening. The Mets are happy with Soto. You buy a Mercedes Benz (Soto) & you than buy cheap parts to fix your Mercedes Benz.
Adding pitching depth is not cheap parts. Every team needs pitching throughout the season...😏😏😏
Goldscmidt no Arenado no
Polar bear 🐻❄️ yes
With Pete in the lineup this Mets team could be the best offensively
In the history of this organization
Id sign Alonso for 6 years 190 mil
It doesnt much matter who gets signed to play 1b / dh as long as its only a 1 yr deal. 3b should be in house option of Mauricio or Vientos. Best option is going all in for Vlad next year. Who cares home grown or not. I prefer the better player. Vlad>alonso. Smart move is not resign Alonso unless who goes for 1 year, 2 at most prove it contract. If not Goldie, Santana or Vientos there this year. Who cares. Keep it cheap and similar production
Bregman would make me puke it would be such a bad signing
He really would. Especially considering we could get Pete for similar price tag.
Get nolan arenado to play 1st and bregman play 3rd ....problem i have is the yrs with bregman... Give bregman opt outs to solve that problem
This is the worst idea I've heard yet. No and no
@Pcbdude82 you mean you don't want some1 who better defensively at first base than Christian walker and Pete Alonso combined in Nolan Arenado. You mean you like more than 170 SO per season lol do you also like one trick ponies who can only play 1st base lol ... Let's hear a better idea "externally" Genius! Please keep payroll, keeping our top prospects and being realistic in mind!
No on Goldschmidt. No on Arenado. No on Bregman. No on Santana. Wait out Alonso.
ALONSO. 6 YEARS $150
no hes gone, goldschmidt is a good fit
@@mikedelape6609 HE HAD A ROUGH YEAR. PLAYING FOR A FUTURE CONTRACT HURT HIM.
Just offer Alonso a 1 year contract …Mets seem to be bidding against themselves…
As it stands we might be a fourth place team maybe cohen needs to rethink stearns . Everyone says look what David did last year ok but as of now they have not replaced any players of the caliber that they lost they are not good worst pitching staff in the majors not even close to the As
5 yrs 28 mil and end it what's the problem even he he wants 6 yrs n cmon
Bring pete back is a no brainer
Stop disrespecting Vientos, we do not need Bregman. Vientos proved last season he can be our future 3rd baseman. Either re-sign or get Santana for a year then focus on pitching !
Can we stop being dumb. Pete is a met ! We need him!
Goldsmit, bregman, arenado are. Past. Prime. N. Decline, injury. Prime
Its a shame how they doing pete
