In Sandy Alderson’s final offseason as the general manager of the New York Mets, he made five major league signings. He brought back ex-Mets Jay Bruce and Jose Reyes. He also introduced us to Todd Frazier, Anthony Swarzak, and Jason Vargas.
These five names made us ill plenty in 2018. However, a year too late, all five are having pretty good years sans Reyes whose career is probably over.
Out of the other four, two remain with the Mets. Though the unforgiving fans aren’t ready to endear Frazier yet, even we have to admit he’s producing much better than we expected.
