Boy it is so refreshing to have Uncle Steve’s Big Open Wallet.
In the old days under The Wlpons. the Mets would have been signing random middle relievers left and right, with Sandy Alderson spinning the moves as awesome.
But now that Uncle Steve’s Big Open Wallet is here, I think it’s clear that the New New New New New Mets Culture is one of extravagance. Look at THIS signing!
The Mets have signed 29 year old Trevor Hildenberger to a minor league deal!
Trevor (the Mets are collecting Trevors) was 2-2 with a Marr Harvey like 10.47 ERA in 2020, but I am told I am not allowed to count 2020 stats as they make Pete Alonso look like he’s vastly overrated. Looking at 2019 this Other Trevor was 4-6 with a 5.42
Milennials and beer drinkers like Ceetar might like all these words that MLB Trade Rumors wrote, but frankly it’s way too many numbers for me. Just tell me the W-L ERA and I can take it from there:
Hildenberger’s career went off the rails from 2018-19. He combined for a 6.35 ERA/4.58 FIP with 8.56 K/9, 3.32 BB/9 and a 44.5 percent grounder mark across 89 1/3 innings during those two seasons.
Anyway, the Uncle Steve Era is off to the races. We have Trevor May, Sam McWilliams and now Trevor Hildenberger. The Mets are back baby!
