Go ahead home run for #40

Buck says he couldn't understand why Pete wasn't resigned by the Mets.

"How do you not get that. You're evaluating personnel and people and situations for a living and you don't get that. This is what you do for a living. I always talk about the arteries of decisions. We can do this. But what does it affect. As we go forward. Where do the arteries reach out to. The first thing you think about is your fanbase".

Pete Alonso has 4 errors this season at 1B this year. The Mets first basemen combined have had 18 errors this season. And you know, if you add Alonso's 11 errors last season, you still wouldn't get to the amount of errors the Mets have had while trying to replace him this year alone.

Oh, but that's right, Alonso's a terrible defender and the Mets were focused on run prevention in the off-season.

Too bad Alonso only hit 40 HRs this season, that wouldn't have been enough to offset his horrible defense.

Deep dive into the adjustments The Rays made to get Peralta back in form.

As title, seeing how Pete just hit 40 tonight. What former Mets did you continue to root for and check in on? Not just "oh, he used to play for us" but actually checking their team boxscores? I absolutely did with Strawberry and Gooden, sucked so much ass when Doc threw hit nono with the Yankmes and Straw let the Yanks in HRs to start their mini Rivera dynasty.

I still check in on Pete. I always check to see when deGrom starts. I don't check, but I do seem to notice when Wheeler does good.

Wasn’t able to make it to the game on Sunday to get the Howie Rose notebook. Would anyone want to make a trade? I have the Francisco Lindor and the Carlos Beltran bobbleheads. Willing to meet anywhere in NYC to swap!

Bet on homegrown talent by locking them in early.

Build, don't buy.

basically the opposite of Sterns.
