Meet the Mets
In a recent interview with the New York Post, Keith Hernandez was asked what he thinks of the Mets’ offseason. “I have used basically three words — ‘staggering, astounding and astonishing.’ Steve wants to win,” Hernandez said. Regarding his expired SNY contract, Hernandez said that negotiations started right before the holidays and that after the holidays he is sure “it will pick up again.”
Mets prospect Jett Williams “has a chance to be a dynamic top-of-the-order type of bat... and his plus speed could allow him to be a factor on the base paths,” according to Joe DeMayo of SNY, who wrote about what to expect from him in 2023.
