The Mets 2023 has been nothing short of a disappointment. Despite entering the season with the highest payroll in the history of baseball and World Series expectations, the blue and orange are 49-54 and 6.5 games out of the last wild card spot.
With their struggles, the Mets have decided to begin to sell at the trade deadline. Following the Mets’ 2-1 come-from-behind win against the Washington Nationals on Thursday night, the blue and orange sent closer David Robertson to the Miami Marlins in exchange for second baseman Marco Vargas and catcher Ronald Hernandez.
This move has led to disappointment from one of the Mets’ star pitchers.
