Ok
Hahaha
Lmao why the fuck are the Mets acting like a small market team? I honestly think Stearns is not a good GM for a big market. Dombrowski would never do something like this.
Primarily a 2b in 2024, slid to mostly DH last year with some 2b, had a career year at age 32…. The mets found their 1b and the dude got paid! Makes complete sense! Lolmets
Huh? Thats not a made up person?
Such a bad signing, wow, paying a middle infielder 20M to play 1B/DH after a career year at age 32. Such a old Mets move.
Idk why everyone is dogging on Polanco he’s a good player.
BUT, yeah this is a massive downgrade at 1B
Liked him on the Mariners. Sad he signed with the “poverty” Mets. FTM
I’ve always liked Polanco, but if feel like he loses a lot of value playing first. His bat is good for the middle infield, but it’s not really special at first or DH.
He’s pretty good actually but losing Alonzo kinda makes 🤷♂️
LOL Mets
I like Palanco a lot but, going from Alonso to him at first base? Ehhhhhhhhh
Yes, HE will protect Juan Soto in the line-up. I’ve conferred and Emmanuel Clase is planning to take the over on Soto’s 150.5 walks in 2026.
