MLB did an article about what each fanbase should be thankful for. This is what they have for the Mets, and I find it lacking.
Mets: The retooling is off to a good start.
Obviously, 2023 didn’t go the way the Mets, the fans and their owner wanted it to. But they did what you’d like to see from a team that had such a setback: They cut their losses, brought in some exciting young talent when they traded off Max Scherzer and Justin Verlander, and are well-positioned to take some big steps forward over the next few years. (via MLB.com nonsense division.)
WHAT? What are you even talking about MLB? This team took steps backward and so far the David Stearns era has been marked by totally hiring their first choice manager like they wanted to really honestly.
What we SHOULD be thankful for is that the 86 Red Sox couldn’t close out victories, or we’d be hanging onto one miracle from 54 years ago.
