Loyal readers of this website (yes, there are a few) know that I am a frequent critic of Sandy Alderson. My opinion of Alderson’s job as Mets GM is evident on the homepage of this site, which features a category titled “Alderson Sucks.” At various times over the years I have called him a “man without a plan,” a “coward” and a “liar.” I even thought I wrote that the Mets would never make the World Series with him as general manager. I can’t seem to find that one; perhaps I softened that. But I did think it.
