  9. Business is business I'm not a Mets fan but when the orioles play the Mets at Citi field Mets fans have to cheer and respect him. he loved you guys ultimately he wanted a contract the Mets didn't want to give him. he deserves his money.

  13. You’re proud to call the murder capital of the US home?!? No one loves being from Baltimore, place is a SHITHOLE. From Nj I’ve worked down there on a few jobs, leave the beautiful down town area and your chances of getting killed just tripled. Hey enjoy Baltimore Pete 😂

  17. I’m so split on this. I feel he was greedy turning down the 7 year extension. If he really wanted a legacy in NY and be a Met, he would’ve taken that. On the flip side, I don’t like how Stearns and Cohen treated him. I think he’s a fool for going to Baltimore. Boston I could see. I mean Baltimore over NY, finishing your career in NY with broken records, number retired, adored by the fans, etc. Baltimore is not NY with regards to baseball. Good luck! Thank God you can feed your family now at $200 million vs $158 million to have been a life long Met. Don’t know how you would’ve survived at $158 million plus the millions before and after the contract. Baltimore just doesn’t have the same glitz and glamour! Sorry!!

  18. What bothered me most wasn’t just what he said—it was what he couldn’t bring himself to say. His comments about Mets fans were empty and generic: “great people,” “clubbies,” “staff,” “locker room.” No names. No specificity. No ownership. No teammates. And barely an acknowledgment of the fans who showed up for him year after year. It came off as cold, bitter, and calculated.

    Let’s call it what it is: ingratitude.

    This wasn’t some short stay or brief stop along the way. He was drafted by the Mets in 2017. That’s over 11 years in the organization, including seven seasons as a Major League player, and this is the level of perspective he brings to the moment? After more than a decade, this is how petty he still is?

    Even if you’re angry—angry that the front office didn’t grade you out at the number you delusionally believe you’re worth—there’s a basic level of professionalism and class that should transcend contract negotiations. The Mets drafted him. They sent him through instructional leagues. Their development system taught him how to prepare, how to compete, and how to be a professional. They gave him his first real opportunity in Major League Baseball.

    The classy move—the bare minimum, frankly—would have been to say: “Regardless of how things ended, I’m grateful to the Mets organization for helping me become the player I am today.” That’s it. No concessions. No weakness. Just maturity.

    But he couldn’t do that. He was too consumed by ego. Too influenced by an agent who inflated his sense of value. Too resentful that the Mets didn’t validate that fantasy. So instead of closing the chapter with dignity, he chose bitterness.

    After 11 years in the system and seven years in the big leagues, that level of pettiness isn’t understandable—it’s revealing.

    And honestly? It says far more about him than it ever will about the Mets.
