You have to decide on Ronny's value and where he fits in with the Mets going forward. Is he a piece you hold on to or trade bait for a need?

He didn't get AB's last year. Unless he can play OF, or hit right-handed better than he's shown, I don't see where the AB's are coming from.

I'm with Worm on this one. Mauricio won't get that many ABs while he's up now. I'm surprised he was the selection since they wanted him to keep playing consistently and now he'll probably sit most of the time.
I'd agree with you in this way. If they chose him to sit most of the time--and I'd probably amend that to mean well more than 50% of the time--I'd agree with you. But I expecdt him to get ABs and, if he hits, get even more.
Other than maybe giving Lindor a day off I don’t see how he gets any consistent at-bats. Does Mendoza use him as a late game defensive replacement at 3rd for Bichette while Bo is still settling in to the spot?
Didn’t like Mauricio up in that situation but glad he proved me wrong. !
Was pleasantly surprised that Seewald didn’t throw an off speed breaking pitch with 2 strikes

He missed his spot, Ronny doesn’t layoff high fastballs, catcher wanted to go up the ladder, Sewald missed down the middle, game over.

It's safe to say that Sewald missed his location on that pitch big time. Right down broadway.
Pirates signed that rookie who has been in the bigs for lesss than a week to a 9 year contract. Crazy.
Smart business for both. For the player- it is guaranteed very good money during his "controlled" years. For the Pirates- they lock him up and even though it may seem like a lot of money now- it saves in the long run. And again, back to the player- who knows what happens in collective bargaining.

You know there will be posters all over you for talking negatively about the Mets.
Pedro Martinez said the Mets don't have an identity, which will hinder them in the long run. They look good on paper, but the performance on the field is another issue.
Imagine if the Mariners had signed Kelenic to a similar contract when he was first called up.
You are right- is Pedro crazy- The Met's are a clutch hitting, fundamentally sound, run prevention machine. The Met's also want to be a team full of controllable players or contracts with opt outs except for the ones that Stearns was forced to take.
It is a very clear identity...
Exactly. He hasn't proven himself at all yet. The lanscape is littered with guys who came flying out of the blocks and then started sucking wind on the 2nd turn.
I do not like Peterson and wish he had also been shown the door in the offseason. To me he is part and parcel for why we fell short last season. He lacks that added something inside that the top pitchers have.
He implied that management doesn't want strong personalities as that is in direct conflict with management's control of the team. Usually dominant players run the team and get others to play well. Putting a team together is not like legos. You can't snap them together and think they follow the manager's wish.
Beltran talked about how Pedro helped him when he arrived in NY and about Pedro's impact on those Mets. Leaders lead and followers look lost without guidance. Management is not in the dugout during the heat of the battle.
This is the kind of gamble that small market teams have to make, and teams like the Mets don't. The Cohen mindset is, let the kid play out his controllable years, and when the time comes for me to out bid everybody, I'll do that - if I so choose.
Trying a new way but not loving it so still don't expect every day unfortunately.
