This Quote Says It All
From Ken Rosenthal’s column, in reference to free agent Mark DeRosa’s potential landing spots:
“Lesser teams such as the Mets and Nationals also are interested in DeRosa, according to major-league sources. But, like so many free agents, his first choice is to play for a contender.”
Not only do the Mets have the wrong people in charge of running the team right now, with no chance of being competent enough to make any well-informed and responsible decision, but even if they did, it would still be an extremely rigorous, nearly impossible uphill climb to fix EVERYTHING that is wrong with this team in one offseason. Rosenthal speaks the truth and the truth hurts.
Until they prove otherwise, Rosenthal’s assessment is accurate.
That said he does happen to be right about the Mets, they are a lesser organization because those who are running it are incompetent. I just wish reporting was more objective overall.
