Sign Pete..and another big bat. However, the focus in the off season needs to be on acquiring multiple pitchers. Even with Cohen’s hefty wallet and $ coming off the books..not sure all the needs can be addressed by signing Soto.
JUAN SOTO should not be a primary free agent target for the N.Y. METS. They should spend that money to resign ALONSO, go after CORBIN BURNES, ANTHONY SANTADER and a good reliever. Then they should trade for GARRET CROCHET and BRENT ROOKER who hit .291, 40 hrs,over 100 rbis, plays the outfield, can DH, plus he's being paid $700,000 and that's right down MINI MARKET STEARNS' ally.
I don’t see Pete as an early signing. Boras is going to have to gauge the market first because the Mets will not overspend for him. In fact, Walker is a big problem for Pete because his output was similar to Pete’s when you account for ballpark differential with a clearly superior glove. Anyone saying Max Fried is an option needs to understand that he’s going back home to the West Coast. Dude will be a Dodger or Padre.
Also the Soto deal feels like the Dodgers with Ohtani. This is a guy Cohen has had his eye on for a while. If we don’t get Soto, I doubt it will be because Cohen was outbid
Mets need to stop facing Max Fried and make him a Met. It's two fold u take a valuable piece from a competitior that weakens them and strengthens the Mets, Atlanta won't turn and sign Burnes, he will be out of their budget. But you also get a Dawg that can shut down an opposing batters lineup. I would then get burnes and BP help. Hitters Bregman and Soto and your ready to rock
I’ve been at Mets Fan since 1967 . When it comes to Juan Soto, I think his motivation could depend heavily on his own ambitions and values beyond just financial gain. If the Yankees win the World Series, both Soto and the Yankees might feel more inclined to retain Soto, as well as Soto be more motivated on building on a winning formula. I think if they win; it’s less likely he leaves. Think about it just logically. If he’s choosing between LA and New York, then he’s got three choices. The Mets , the Yankees and the Dodgers. But if he’s picking between the Mets and the Yankees, and he wins the World Series, and he’s a big part of it, I just don’t see him leaving as much as I would love to have Soto on the Mets. And I’m not trying to take away anything our Mets; I LOVE MY METS. But let’s face it if it’s about branding and marketing, 28 championships, iconic team, worldwide, iconic name, present world champion, and he seems to like his teammates. Again, fellow Met fans, I’m not saying this to be a “Debbie downer”, but if they win and he’s a big part of it to come back, I don’t see him leaving. I see him saying let’s run it back.
Couple of things here,I'm all in on bring back Manea and bring Soto and Corbin that would be no doubt World Series contending team. Now here it gets interesting for me,If the Blue Jays are willing to trade Vladimir Guerrero I say make that trade happen for Marte, Baty whoever not named Mauricio and Acuña.Also if this pitcher from Japan becomes available (can't remember his name) go after him as well.Jeff Hoffman would also be a great addition and setup man for Diaz.
Keep the polar bear manea and coverino hell no to walker buhler get rid maton get out of marte and either bring up some guys from the minors or try to get some guys via free agency or trades.
Honestly other FAs i would look at even as a Contingency plan, Christian Walker incase Pete really does leave, Max Fried would be a get too. I want to think Willy Adames may be a great pick up too. Convert him to second. I also wonder if Roki Sasaki comes out too. He would be high on my list too.
Mets need to concentrate on pitching no doubt. At least 2 SP and super bullpen. Re-sign Pete get one more good bat. Will be set. But pitching is a priority
The Mets need to get Pete signed immediately which I believe along with money will get Soto very excited being in a stacked lineup and it would be deeper all the way to batter 9 compared to the Yankees maybe four deep. We can't take too long with Juan also because we don't want to lose out on some other stars that might sign elsewhere while we're waiting for Soto.
Hopin for Adames or Bregman to play 3rd, moving Marky V to 1st. Or leave his subpar D at the 3rd, and sign Christian Walker for 2 yrs. Time to break up the core.
My options are: Max Fried Walker Buehler Sean Manaea. Garrett Crochet Jurickson Profar Alex Verdugo Juan Soto Willy Adames Corbin Burnes Ryne Stanek Luis Severino Freddy Peralta Jeff Hoffman GM go from there, Let’s go Mets!
No to Corbin Burnes. I think he’s one start away from TJ Surgery. Yes he’s really good but his underlying numbers are going the wrong way. I also don’t see how Burnes doesn’t get at least 6 years for his next contract.
I doubt that the Mets will be getting Corbin burnes ok because Baltimore just got him from the brewers and they will offer him a multi year deal . The Mets will have to top that Baltimore deal to have a chance to sign him
I hope Stearns/Cohen set a soft deadline to Boras in regard to signing some of his big free agents. Can’t wait on one or two players while othe4 teams are making moves and we’re left with nothing
Eh nah, Yankees got to the World Series, dodgers got to the World Series and will win it. Mets would have to pay more than both of them and also convince him that they’ll win. If he wants the money and the ring, he already has two top contenders in the dodgers and Yankees.
Help us get to 300+ likes & 30K subs! Mets fans, which free agent target do YOU hope lands in Queens the most?
I honestly did not expect both Manaea and Sevy would work out this well when we signed them. Whoever Sterns is going after, I will trust.
Sign Pete early and get it out of thecway
he’s going to sign late, u have to test the market before u go overpaying him
Agreed. He has to get paid but give up the hometown deal. Have to get it done so we can focus on Soto. He’s the one we have to lock up
Sign Pete..and another big bat. However, the focus in the off season needs to be on acquiring multiple pitchers. Even with Cohen’s hefty wallet and $ coming off the books..not sure all the needs can be addressed by signing Soto.
@ spot on
JUAN SOTO should not be a primary free agent target for the N.Y. METS. They should spend that money to resign ALONSO, go after CORBIN BURNES, ANTHONY SANTADER and a good reliever. Then they should trade for GARRET CROCHET and BRENT ROOKER who hit .291, 40 hrs,over 100 rbis, plays the outfield, can DH, plus he's being paid $700,000 and that's right down MINI MARKET STEARNS' ally.
They HAVE TO sign Pete. I like Burnes and also Hernandez from the Dodgers. Pass on Soto and get more pitching.
Pass on soto? 🤣🤣🤣 a future hall of famer and 8-10 more years of mvp level gameplay.. yes let's pass on that.
@Casey4242 He's not a good fielder. There are other bats available that fit better IMHO. Pitching and defense win games.
I was at the Knicks game today I’m
Happy they won and you as well
We need a number 1 starter . Corbin Burnes fits the bill . Juan Soto a no brainer . I have no problems with manea coming back and Alonso as well
Add a couple of relievers too.
❤❤❤totally agree!
Bro I'll take that plus Ronny Mauricio coming back and vientos there
Pitching is also a must
Excellent Wardy !!!
Mets need to get Manaea back and Sevy. Try to sign Burnes and sign Pete. And get bullpen help. And get another big bat.
Agreed. Resign Harrison Bader because the team still needs an elite defensive CF
I don’t see Pete as an early signing. Boras is going to have to gauge the market first because the Mets will not overspend for him. In fact, Walker is a big problem for Pete because his output was similar to Pete’s when you account for ballpark differential with a clearly superior glove. Anyone saying Max Fried is an option needs to understand that he’s going back home to the West Coast. Dude will be a Dodger or Padre.
Forget about CHRISTIAN WALKER. He's 34 yrs old, four yrs older than PETE. BRING BACK THE POLAR BEAR!!!
The METS should also resign SEVERINO, MANAEA, IGLESIAS, WINKER, STANEK...
Not if Manaea is looking for crazy money. He’s been slightly better than a .500 pitcher his entire career.
HOFFMAN from the PHILLIES would be a good rliever fit.
Also the Soto deal feels like the Dodgers with Ohtani. This is a guy Cohen has had his eye on for a while. If we don’t get Soto, I doubt it will be because Cohen was outbid
For sure have to sign Soto.
No human being is not worth the money that he wants, with that kind of money, you could sign,3 good players
I want Soto and Alonso because those are the pieces that can help Lindor get us a championship
Alonso?
walker buehler to the mets this offseason from the dogers in 2025

Burins, Soto and Alonso successfully offseason
Burins?
@ spelling error Burnes
Give BURNES a five yr deal and COHEN should make the deal not MINI MARKET STEARNS' MINI MARKET PHILOSOPHY.
Get off that mini market Stearns bullshit
I’m calling it. Stearns is going to try and land a pitcher off the trade market. I’m going with Crochet. It’s the most obvious choice but still.
I’ve been at Mets Fan since 1967 . When it comes to Juan Soto, I think his motivation could depend heavily on his own ambitions and values beyond just financial gain.

All that being said with my long previous comment; I WANT Soto, I don’t want Pete Alonzo, I want Bueller, Burns if it’s not too long a contract.
Keep the polar bear manea and coverino hell no to walker buhler get rid maton get out of marte and either bring up some guys from the minors or try to get some guys via free agency or trades.
Honestly other FAs i would look at even as a Contingency plan, Christian Walker incase Pete really does leave, Max Fried would be a get too. I want to think Willy Adames may be a great pick up too. Convert him to second. I also wonder if Roki Sasaki comes out too. He would be high on my list too.
Bi-Polar bear will have a great season next year ,love me some kuchi, ferris Buehler was a good movie..
Sotos defense will drive us crazy
I hope we sign key players before the end of December. I hope it’s a happy Xmas and Hanukkah. All that good stuff for the Mets and Soto
Mets need to concentrate on pitching no doubt. At least 2 SP and super bullpen. Re-sign Pete get one more good bat. Will be set. But pitching is a priority

Let’s sign Soto 11 yrs 4:22 500 millions …Alonso 6 yrs 140 millions…Burnes 6 yrs 180 millions…Buhler 1 yr 20 million, Manea 3 yrs 75 millions…LGM
Sorry but that's not going to happen ok that's some wishlist you came up with.
Hopin for Adames or Bregman to play 3rd, moving Marky V to 1st. Or leave his subpar D at the 3rd, and sign Christian Walker for 2 yrs. Time to break up the core.
My options are:
Max Fried
Walker Buehler
Sean Manaea. Garrett Crochet
Jurickson Profar
Alex Verdugo
Juan Soto
Willy Adames
Corbin Burnes
Ryne Stanek
Luis Severino
Freddy Peralta
Jeff Hoffman
GM go from there, Let’s go Mets!
No to Corbin Burnes. I think he’s one start away from TJ Surgery. Yes he’s really good but his underlying numbers are going the wrong way. I also don’t see how Burnes doesn’t get at least 6 years for his next contract.
I doubt that the Mets will be getting Corbin burnes ok because Baltimore just got him from the brewers and they will offer him a multi year deal . The Mets will have to top that Baltimore deal to have a chance to sign him
Hope we can get Soto and either Burnes or Fried and keep Pete
I hope Stearns/Cohen set a soft deadline to Boras in regard to signing some of his big free agents. Can’t wait on one or two players while othe4 teams are making moves and we’re left with nothing
Get soto and either burnes or snell
No snell
I’ll pass on Snell
And TRADE for Vald Jr.....Bye Marte and McNeil...ALONSO 😏
Weneed Burns@@Gemz0001
We will sign merifield one year contract .and any cast off pitcher .
Mets should try to get Kiki Hernandez from the Dodgers
Love Soto but remember who he was batting in front of
I would say Walker would wanna stay with the Dodgers idk man
Gotta GET to the playoffs first. JS
NO on Buehler. Two Tommy Johns.
Let’s not pencil in Senga given his history
SINCE THE YANKEES ONLY WON 1 FROM DODGERS SOTO WAS PISTOFF HES COMING TO QUEENS
Senga really a? We better sign a couple good starting pitchers.
I need pete and soto lmao cohen got the money
My last name is Soto. You know who I want them to get lol will they? I can only hope
Eh nah, Yankees got to the World Series, dodgers got to the World Series and will win it. Mets would have to pay more than both of them and also convince him that they’ll win. If he wants the money and the ring, he already has two top contenders in the dodgers and Yankees.
juan soto to the mets in 2025 offseason from the yakees in 2025
Brent Rooker pls 🙏
Brent Rooker would need to be traded for. He is not a free agent which is what Wardy is discussing
So SWEET that The Yankees LOST !! Now let the party Begin. The Trade and Free Agent Rumours will start Flying in 48 hours. Can't Wait!!
Santader Corbin and Freied. And resign Alonso
no Soto to the Mets. I hope the NYY deal him far away, dont need him on eithrr team locally. let him take his theatrics somewhere else
Don’t want Soto, he’s a clown. Pitching, pitching, pitching, and another outfielder who can hit.
