Re: *** Official NY Mets Our OFFSEASON Has Come Thread ***
There is no prospect that can fill at 2b, besides Gotay if you still consider him one. Hernandez is a disgrace to the uniform. Gotay could be a viable option, it's tough to say with so few MLB plate appearances. This is still a good team, but it might be another year before we fill some of the glaring holes, just by judging who is out there. Virtually every one of our "prospects" underperformed this year. Carp will not likely be a MLB starting caliber 1b. humber and Pelfrey remain overrated and underperforming. Mulvy had promising but misleading numbers, and lacks the peripherals at this point. Fernando Martinez is a ways away. Who knows about Gomez, Milledge looks promising.
This is a good team, not a great one. Don't expect any offseason moves this year to make the mets significantly better for next year, it just doesn't look likely at this point. With the exact same team, we will be contenders. This is more than most teams can say.
