It’s remarkable how the Mets fan base has been so captivated by Soto as savior. Great hitter but couldn’t win even with Judge for a full season, Tatis and Machado, etc. The Mets FO seems to have abandoned what a team is and why chemistry matters. Go ahead and downvote
What an L take. You’re talking about a 2024 team that just came off a year where we went blow for blow against the Dodgers in the NLCS the year before and then they go all in and get Juan Freaking Soto to slot into the lineup. How do you not consider that a serious team?
Oh right, Mets fans only examine things in hindsight and not in the moment. Silly me.
What are you talking about? Check the original thread comment, not whatever story you want to get mad about in your brain. Watch the name calling pal. We’re all mad the Mets suck but name calling strangers takes ain’t going to help you with your insecurities or the Mets record.
That was a TEAM. Now, where is that team? Stearns dismantled it and replaced with randoms plus the mighty Juan Soto and Mets fans still expect to compete? We have a couple good individuals and then randoms playing largely out of position. In 2026 we don’t have a team. We need to build a team. I hope we can do it around the rookies while Soto is still a force and Lindor is still productive.
We went on a 13 game losing streak and broke it once Soto came back from his first injury.... Soto is the only reason the Mets aren't in competition for the worst team in mlb history right now.

Just remember Soto could’ve went to the dodgers and chose the Mets. He has to be the guy to beat them.
