I was always confused when the pundits and press called them the scrappy underdogs in this years playoffs. They have a massive payroll full of proven veterans.
Disappointed in JV but not as much since it was a ridiculous Godfather type offer that could end up biting the Mets in the ass. Also, it will be fun to hate them again.
Pena did his best Correa impression this season (even one upping him in the post-season, which is not an easy task). It’s a good thing we have a starter who literally does an impression of JV.
The NL is shaping up to be a great race next year, with no fewer than 6 contenders (LAD, SDP, STL, NYM, PHI and ATL) and with SFG willing to spend to join.
With all the ridiculous money being thrown around this winter just a reminder that Luhnow was smart enough to extend Bregman. Otherwise he would be a FA right now and who knows what kind of money it would cost to sign him.
Also, kudos to Breggy for signing the team friendly deal to stay in Houston.
Not the sick burn you think it is, bud. I was merely repsonding to another’s question, not the revered OG you keep slobbing over. Did IQs drop sharply while I was away?
