on the bright side Soto really has turned it on in the 2nd half, incredible offensive player 8)

that's baseball for you.. its such a screwy game.  But even when he was supposedly "bad" this year his numbers never really looked horrible, he just wasn't up to that outrageous contract.  And to play up to a contract like that for an entire 162 is nearly impossible. 

It was the same with Bobby Witt Jr.  They were saying he had a down year and not up to his 300,000 mill contract or whatever he's got, but for a good defensive shortstop when you are hitting over .275 and with pop, and stealing bases, I don't know how people could be mad.   

Then eventually these guys get hot and next thing you know their numbers start looking closer to the projected numbers

...a bad Soto, or a bad Bobby Witt is .270 with pop.  So that's still alright... the real bust is Jac Cagliogne.  There's no argument for a .150 hitter.  Unless every one of those hits is a homer (which its definitely not) there's no argument for that.  He was supposed to be the next big thing and so far he's a bust

HighEyeCue:
the Mets are now on the outside looking in with 6 games left....record wise they are even with the Reds but lose the tiebreaker

I love Soto but signing him limited what we could do with other moves especially the pitching staff

on the bright side we have 3 young starting pitchers who were called up in August who might be rotation staples next year

HighEyeCue:
no matter what the Reds and Arizona the Mets just have to do is win 3 games against the Marlins and they're in 8)

which they never do lol

sorry mate... I know it sucks, but having a team in contention to the last couple days of a season still means an exciting year.  But yeah, postseason is so much fun it sucks to come that close and miss.
