"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.
