jillian59+FollowMets move on from Hall of Famer’s sonThe Mets just released Vladi Guerrero, son of Hall of Famer Vladimir Guerrero, less than two years after signing him. Despite his famous last name and a $117,000 signing bonus, Vladi struggled in the Dominican Summer League, hitting just .210 over 72 games. His speed on the bases was a highlight, but the power and consistency weren’t there. It’s a reminder that big league dreams—and legacies—don’t guarantee success. What do you think: Should teams take more chances on legacy players, or is it all about the numbers? #Sports #Baseball #Mets10Share
Maria Chavez+FollowMets fans fume over latest bullpen moveNew York Mets fans are fired up after GM David Stearns signed 30-year-old Mike Baumann to a minor-league deal, especially with big names still on the market and core players like Pete Alonso and Edwin Díaz gone. Baumann’s recent stats—struggles in Japan and a rocky 2024 in MLB—aren’t inspiring much hope. Many are questioning if this “small-market” approach fits a team with big-city expectations. With the offseason so quiet, the community is buzzing: Is this the new Mets way, or is something bigger coming? What do you think about the team’s direction? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
Kimberly Moore+FollowCould Luis Robert Jr. Be the Mets’ Missing Piece?With the Mets losing Brandon Nimmo and struggling to fill that center field gap, rumors are heating up about a blockbuster move for Chicago’s Luis Robert Jr. The White Sox star may not have put up huge numbers last season, but let’s not forget his All-Star upside and Gold Glove defense. A change of scenery in Queens could be just what he needs. Would you pull the trigger on this trade if you were Steve Cohen? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
Andrea Castillo+FollowMets fans divided as core breaks upLosing Pete Alonso to the Orioles feels like the end of an era for Mets fans. He was the team’s all-time home run leader and still hitting at an elite level, but the front office wouldn’t budge beyond a three-year offer. Analyst Michael Kay is calling out GM David Stearns for “deleting” the Mets’ core, arguing the real issue was the bullpen, not the big bats. With new faces in the bullpen but no clear upgrades, it’s no wonder the fanbase is questioning the direction. Do you think breaking up the core was the right move, or will the Mets regret it? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share

Joe Benigno from WFAN didn’t hold back, blasting Steve Cohen and David Stearns for gutting the team instead of just fixing the pitching staff. The frustration is real—fans wanted a stronger bullpen, not a full reset. Now, with cash freed up from recent trades, the talk is about reinvesting in someone like Pete Fairbanks to patch up the late innings. Do you think the Mets’ leadership made the right call, or did they miss the mark? #Sports #Baseball #Mets11Share

Tammy Sellers+FollowMets take a chance on 99mph fireballerOfreidy Gomez is joining the Mets after lighting up the Dominican Winter League with a 2.77 ERA and a jaw-dropping 15.2 K/9. He’s 30, has never pitched in the majors, and struggled with control in Triple-A, but his 99mph fastball is hard to ignore. The Mets have made a habit of rolling the dice on high-velocity arms lately. Could Gomez be a hidden gem, or is this just another minor league flyer? Would you rather see the Mets take more risks like this, or focus on proven talent? #Sports #Baseball #Mets10Share
Tammy Sellers+FollowWhy the Mets need to go big this winterLosing familiar faces like Pete Alonso, Edwin Diaz, and Brandon Nimmo has left Mets fans with more questions than answers this offseason. But imagine the buzz if the Mets land a star like Kyle Tucker for the outfield.

What do you think—should the Mets make a splash or keep building patiently? #Sports #Baseball #Mets00Share
