Is this happening yet again? Or are there going to be a legion of stoic, robotic followers who will dispute that? I thought this was guy was supposed to be something special? Wasn’t he supposed to be very smart? Wasn’t his use of advanced statistical analysis supposed to help him get players of “value”?

Looks like he’s being outsmarted by other GMs again. Is somebody going to sit there and tell this fanbase that Sandy is having the best possible off season he can have? Or is this yet another repeat of last year?

There is no reason or excuse to move young, team controlled building blocks like Ike Davis or Jonathan Niese. Those are guys you build with, at least according to baseball the way I know it growing up and it’s no different now regardless of what you and your new legion of accountants and numbers crunchers say. They are practically rookies/prospects themselves.
If Saber Sandy does move them or attempt to than I will start buying into the notion that maybe he does want his own players and not the one that Omar put on this team. You know, the players that Sandy is piggybacking his potential success on.

But judging by the terrible way Alderson does business so far I see no success for this joke of a franchise for years to come as long as this idiot is at the helm

Jose Lima – rip

I do feel horrible for thinking Jorge Sosa was passed……..

Unbelievable excuse making for your god”

Yeah an excuse, the rest of the free world know what’s going on with ownership, but I guess you don’t, but you played the game and can evaluate talent better than anyone else right?

Do you know there is a difference between a reason and an excuse?

Wake up loser

Niese & Davis are part of the pieces of a team that is supposed to contend and make money so how does trading them for unproven prospects help the Wilpon’s financial situation? Unless there is a major acquisition for Niese I don’t see the sense in trading a young Lefty who is not far from being a prospect & had to work with a terrible catching tandem last year.

Again you’re over thinking maybe try and loosen up your bookeeper’s visor and use some baseball sense. I cannot believe the type of ridiculous baseball conversations that happen here now. Everybody is losing their minds. I think people would rather discuss finances and try to sound smart with all these new numbers crunching toys than actually try to figure what’s best to win. Trying to win in baseball is out – trying to sound intellectual is in

and of course it is because they are broke. If (and remember, no one has been traded, and every report is the mets are looking to hit the jackpot for any of them) they are, it is only because the team doesn’t expect to have the money to buy the missing pieces in the next couple of years, or to keep these guys around long enough to help out when the team might finally be competitive.

no one is looking to trade guys because they have star potential. If it happens, it is to get multiple pieces of the future out of 1 current piece.

I still say plan like he doesn’t exist, so anything he gives you is gravy.
