SLACKISH REACTION:  You guys know I like my sleep and today was my one Saturday all summer to sleep in.  MMMmmmm sleep.  Anyway woke up and googled Mets.  The Mets won.  And while Carbrera-gate was on my brain I had totally forgotten the Mets admitted the season is over and they are willing to trade players!

Anyway, the Mets won (I now get my game recaps from Mets.com, that’s how bad every other source has gotten, that the official Pravda version is the most thorough.) and who cares about the details.

I do not understand anyone’s love of Jose Reyes, especially the Mets.   Bad guy, bad player.  0 for 3 last night (with 2 walks) and I think the Mets Twitter Narrative is so wrong on this Cabrera reaction.  You guys are acting like Cabrera is the worst person ever.   It’s one thing to lose your job to the future and a prospect, it’s another to lose it to a guy batting .191    So the Mets upset their clubhouse to keep Jose Reyes happy.  I’m with Cabrera on this one.

Then there’s the fire sale.  Good.  I have been telling you since May 16th that the season is over, and it’s good to see the Mets realize it too.

BUT HERE’S THE THING.

If the issue is that Cabrera isn’t good enough at SS, and you want to upgrade SS, WHY THE HELL IS ROSARIO IN VEGAS????

This love of Reyes makes no sense.  This team drives me bonkers.

I like this from CBS Sports

The Mets, then, are showing more loyalty to arguably the worst player in baseball than they are to just about anyone else in their clubhouse. No wonder Cabrera is upset — he’s better than Reyes, and he knows it.

The Astros want JDG.  Screw it, let’s get something before he gets hurt too.   Trade everyone but Harvey, let him be the ace during the 2018 mess.
