Cassandra Reed+FollowMets Face Imai vs Senga DilemmaMets fans, buckle up—Tatsuya Imai’s MLB posting window is closing fast, and the front office is in a real bind. Do they double down on the proven Kodai Senga, who was lights-out pre-injury, or roll the dice on Imai’s NPB dominance and electric stuff? With teams like the Yankees and Giants lurking, the Mets’ decision could shape the rotation for years. Would you risk Senga’s consistency for Imai’s upside? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
terrysharon+FollowCould Chris Bassitt be the Mets’ missing piece?Chris Bassitt, who quietly put together another solid season with the Blue Jays, might just be the perfect fit for the Mets’ rotation right now. He’s reliable, durable (170+ innings for four straight years!), and his projected stats put him right up there with some of the best. At 37, he’s not the flashiest name, but a short-term deal could give the Mets exactly what they need: stability and experience. Would you welcome Bassitt back to Queens, or should the Mets aim younger? Let’s hear your take on the rotation shake-up! #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
Tammy Sellers+FollowSurprise Mets standout: Acuña’s batting average buzzJuan Soto and Francisco Lindor topping the Mets’ projected batting averages isn’t shocking, but seeing Luisangel Acuña in the third spot definitely raises eyebrows. Despite being penciled in for just 44 games and 175 at-bats, Acuña’s .254 projection suggests he could bring real value with his contact and speed—even if he’s not hitting homers. The real question is, if he gets more playtime, could he outperform expectations? With Polanco’s health and role still uncertain, Acuña might just get his shot. Mets fans, would you give him more at-bats if he starts hot? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
Catherine Reeves+FollowWhy Scott Barlow could be the Mets’ secret weaponScott Barlow’s numbers are a wild ride—he’s got one of the best hard-hit rates in the league, but his walk rate is near the bottom. The Mets need bullpen help, and Barlow’s ability to limit hard contact is something teams dream about. If the coaching staff can help him cut down on walks, he could go from frustrating to fantastic in a hurry. With his $2.6 million price tag and proven ability to get outs when he’s on, is he worth the gamble? Would you take a chance on Barlow for the Mets’ bullpen? #Sports #Baseball #Mets10Share
jillian59+FollowMets’ offseason: Run prevention or just talk?The Mets’ big offseason headline—swapping Brandon Nimmo for Marcus Semien—was pitched as a move for better run prevention, but the rest of the roster looks pretty much the same. While the bullpen got a shakeup and Polanco might fill in at first, there’s still no clear defensive upgrade in left field or the rotation. With Cody Bellinger still unsigned and the bullpen needing more depth, it feels like the promise of run prevention is more talk than action so far. What moves do you think the Mets still need to make to truly back up their offseason strategy? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
Cassandra Reed+FollowMeet the Mets’ hidden gem: Edward LantiguaEdward Lantigua, just 19, is quietly making waves in the Mets’ farm system with an on-base percentage that outshines even the top prospects. His knack for drawing walks—54 in two seasons, more than most veterans—shows a rare plate discipline that’s hard to teach. While he’s not crushing home runs yet, his eye for the strike zone hints at a bright future. As he moves up to face tougher competition, it’ll be exciting to see if his patient approach can carry him all the way to Citi Field. What do you think: Is OBP the most underrated stat for young hitters? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
Andrea Castillo+FollowMets’ Bellinger chase stalls over contract yearsThe biggest holdup in the Mets’ pursuit of Cody Bellinger isn’t about money—it’s all about how many years they’re willing to commit. Bellinger’s camp is pushing for a long-term deal, possibly six or seven years, while the Mets want something shorter. With Pete Alonso gone and the team needing both power and outfield help, Bellinger seems like a perfect fit. But unless one side budges, he might not land in Queens. Would you lock in a star for that long, or play it safe with a shorter contract? Let’s hear your take! #Sports #Baseball #Mets10Share
terrysharon+FollowMets Eye Kyle Tucker-Soto Dream Duo?Looks like Uncle Steve and the Mets are ready to shake up the NL East again! Rumor has it the Amazins’ are favorites to land Kyle Tucker, pairing him with Juan Soto for a potentially lethal outfield. While the Blue Jays and Yankees are reportedly on the outside looking in, Mets fans are buzzing about what this would mean for the lineup. Could this be the move that finally puts the Mets over the top? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
Maria Chavez+FollowShould Ronny Mauricio Get a Shot at 1B?Mets fans, if Jorge Polanco can get a look at first base, why not give Ronny Mauricio a real shot there too? With the infield shuffle and uncertainty around Vientos and Acuna, it makes sense to see if Mauricio’s athleticism and size could translate to first. He’s already shown versatility, and with his switch-hitting upside, he could be a sneaky platoon option. What do you think – time to try the experiment? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
Kimberly Moore+FollowMets shake up third base competitionRonny Mauricio, once the Mets’ top prospect, is now getting an extended look at third base during the Dominican Winter League. With Pete Alonso off to Baltimore and Mark Vientos slotted at first, it looked like Brett Baty had third base locked down. But the Mets seem to be stirring up some healthy competition by testing Mauricio at the hot corner. This move could mean more options for the infield and a fresh shot for Mauricio to prove himself. What do you think—should the Mets stick with Baty, or does Mauricio deserve a real chance at third? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
