The owners don't want to play in April, anyway.

Sure, there are some nuances and each team is different ...

 ... but every team's offense will benefit from the DH.

Because pitcher's can't hit.

I also think that everyone in the NL will echo the sentiment of the Mets' manager and hitting coach.

DJ LeMahieu hopes the players' next proposal will end the MLB lockout.

I never understand the rush to get rid of Voit.

Voit's 162-game average stats:

.267/.357/.510

34 HR

94 RBI

83 R

159 K

61 BB

I was thinking deGrom is their best hitter.

"Five months ago, when the Mets were heading toward their fifth-straight playoff miss, the futures of J.D. Davis and Robinson Cano were murky at best. Davis was expected to be involved in an upcoming offseason trade package — and he very well might still be — while Cano was a distant entity, already erased from Mets’ fans collective consciousness.

Now, their outlooks are quite different. With the universal DH expected to arrive next season, whenever the MLB lockout is lifted and a new Collective Bargaining Agreement is in place, the opportunities for the Mets lineup are especially advantageous."

I mean, in general, I'm bearish on the Mets. It's grading on a curve compared to expectations which I think are a bit outlandish and optimistic.

But if a steroid-less, 39-year-old Robinson Cano is an impactful offensive player for the Mets, then I will truly be shocked.

Universal DH

 That was anti-climactic after decades of screaming about it.

Some ink for Hiroki Kuroda.
