And Wright was as healthy as Alonso in his 20s. That's kind of the point why you don't hand out lengthy deals to guys in their 30s. And why don't the rest equal Pete - because you say so? LOLLOLLOL

How did that work out for Michael Conforto or Jose Reyes or Darryl Strawberry or Noah Syndergaard or David Wright? Did they have many years of production left when they signed their big free agent deals?

That's certainly a possibility.

As stated in the article, this is more of a think piece than an actual proposal. CBP would be a better park for Nimmo and having his contract end a year earlier makes this an interesting idea.

I agree with your sentiment. However, many readers of my blog feel differently and this was an article for them.

Stearns is much-more likely to give the 3-year deal it will likely take to get Schwarber than the 5-plus it will take to get Alonso.

I'm very glad that you read the article and I'm happy to talk about the Mets. But you haven't said one thing that either refutes the article's premise or that I didn't know before I wrote the piece.

So long as you ignore the 2024 injuries to:

Peterson, Senga, Kranick, Reid-Foley, Megill, Smith, Diaz, Raley, Garrett, Nunez, Blackburn and Scott. Even if you limit to SP, there's still 5 of them and they all missed significant time. See the '25 Phils if you want to see a team with good luck.

If you're only going to consider pitchers who've never been injured, you're going to have a very small pool from which to choose. Montas had been healthy in 3 of his previous 4 years and Senga was very durable while in Japan and pitched a full year in 2023.

Yep, all of that was said in the article

Megill was supposed to be a depth starter in the minors but got forced into the Opening Day rotation due to injuries. How many depth starters have a 4.56 ERA, Megill's lifetime mark heading into the season?

Montas threw 150.2, 144.1 and 187 IP. He threw 38.2 innings last year.
Eight of his nine seasons in the majors, Manaea avoided the IL.
Megill has been a consistent 25 starts per year in the majors and minors.
Senga made 20+ starts a year in Japan and made 29 starts in '24. They're plenty durable
