Aroldis Chapman signs 30MM contract with NLC club

[metsguy234]

we didn't need to make any, just resign holliday, add a few back ups....Cardinals don't need to improve this off-season, same with the red sox....free agency my friend can be just as valuable to a team.


but your mets.........now that's another story

Uh...

We have like 4 All-Stars in our starting lineup (Reyes, Bay, Beltran, Wright) and a good cast of supporting players (Francoeur, Pagan, Murphy, Castillo, etc), along with one of the best pitchers in baseball and an improved bullpen.

Don't forget Bengie Molina when Omar signs him to a 3/$70

[200tang]

(Francoeur, Pagan, Murphy, Castillo, etc)

Those aren't good role players...

[metsguy234]

Hey they signed Jason Bay.



DONE

Yeah we just signed Jason Bay.

And Henry Blanco to fill our backup catcher role.

And Alex Cora as a backup shortstop

And Ryota Igarashi, Clint Everts, Kelvim Escobar, Jay Marshall for the bullpen

And Chris Coste, Mike Hessman, Andy Green, Russ Adams, etc for depth... which we didn't have last year

oh! that's why you won 70 games after setting a new record for team budget!

****, that's all it took.



got it.

Uh...

that's a pretty damn good supporting cast if you ask me.

That's why I didn't ask you. I just told you they're not.

One of them is!

got it.

The Mets really aren't that bad of a team. Last year they were wrecked by injuries.

doesn't look like you added much at all.

Bay, i mean, he should be pretty valuable, maybe not for what he will get paid...but hey, he isn't that bad.





the Mets need to be healthy, and get a pitching rotation.

I would have thought they would have tried for Lackey over Bay personally.

[Jeffy25]

That's why I didn't ask you. I just told you they're not.

and you are right, they really aren't.

Murphy and Franky can be solid players at times.

but really they aren't solid role players that you can depend on.

i know.....but it's fun to pick.


I have them winning 87 this year

Murphy and Francoeur are the two worst players of those four .lol

That's what TNP has the entire NL East winning lol

[metsguy234]

I'm sorry we can't all be the Mariners.

They're a pretty awesome supporting cast regardless of what you or your stats say.
