Every time I hear an MLB alert go off Iβm afraid itβs going to be news that Juan Soto is retiring to become a monk or that Francisco Lindor has been arrested for trying to blow up Jeff McNeilβs Ford Bronco.
Thatβs what the trauma of these last 2 days has done to me as a #Mets fan.

I am, apparently, right in the middle of the two locations at opposing ends of the state (but I appreciate the tip). Luckily, I have found a decent bagel place near where I live. Not NY/NJ level, but 7/10

I moved to a Jewish delicatesean desert in NC so I spent $100 to ship in some pastrami, knishes, rugelach, bagels, and matzo ball soup...
Pastrami has the consistency of a leather belt, rugelach tastes like it was made by Hostess, knish & soup were a salt lick. At least the bagels were on point

There are no obvious solves is my concern. Wilson Contreras? Yandy Diaz? Ryan Mountcastle? Baty and you're going BIG on Bregman, Bichette, or Suarez to play 3B? I don't see them going out and signing Tucker. Bellinger would be a huge dice role based on his past, batted ball profile, and h/r splits

Edwin DΓaz has been one of my favorite players to cover. His entrances became a fun part of our broadcast β and, if weβre being honest, probably the reason you know my name at all.
Hollywood just stole a closer who was already built for the movies.

3 teams were willing to go to 5 years for Kyle Schwarber, who is a year older than Pete Alonso, who the Mets are reportedly unwilling to go more than 3 years on.

Mets Reluctant To Go Beyond Three Years For Pete Alonso
The Mets want Pete Alonso back, but they're reluctant to sign him for more than three years. Read more at MLB Trade Rumors.
David Stearns is a small market child. The #Mets are going to wind up with Ty France at first base.
The Mets will never be great with this risk averse mania, too busy staring wearily at 2029 that the they lose any chance of competing in 2026.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. Itβs so funny.
