It's not quite the offseason yet but I think it's time to start looking ahead. This is a huge offseason for the Mets and could make or break their chances to be real contenders in the next few years.
I think it has to be a no brainer that we go all in on Ellsbury or Choo (or both).
A name I've heard thrown around that I'm hesitant about but could talk myself into liking is Robinson Cano. I'm skeptical because I feel it's only a matter of time before he gets popped for PEDs and for no real reason I see him as being a guy that could mail it in once he gets his big payday.
On the other hand, signing him immediately adds the big bat we need and gives us a lot of options. Could he be moved to first to prolong his career and help him stay healthy? Do we keep him at 2nd and move Flores or Murphy to first? Murphy and Flores (more likely Murphy) immediately become tradeable if this move is made. Murph and a young arm or two could absolutely land us a legitimate RF.
