De Aza sucks. He’s not Cespedes. Mets are going to be terrible if they don’t have Cespedes.
Mets aren’t going to be terrible because they don’t have one player. No team is going to suck with the talent they have in their rotation.
I know I was kidding 🙂
It’s tough to tell these days!
I know right. Some people really think like that unfortunately.
