Was meant to be a 0 not a 9 sorry.
Personally I don't think he is worth it so not mad the Mets didn't sign him. Glad we got Stroman to fill his role.
I wasn't expecting him to return but it's the fact that we are basically saying we can't spend shyt and the Braves are scooping up a bunch of people we should've been on that got me mad.

Besides the closer Smith who did you want that ATL got?
Some of the people they resigned as well as Cole Hamels but it's honestly just seeing them make moves while from everything we're reading as far as signing people, the Mets signalling they're sitting on their hands.

So who's our 5th starter? We need one as well as relief pitching.
I believe Lugo's preference is to start and if that's the case him and then get someone cheaper per year as insurance/depth hopefully. We don't need to blow $18M on 1 SP. We could spread that around to 2-3 RPs.

I really really don't think they're gonna give him that opportunity but look at the money we're talking. They should be able to do more than that. They literally need to if 2020 is their shot before rebuilding.
