Scream it at your highest decibel, translated into every language, and spread across every social media platform you know. The New York Mets are making roster moves with more than just fielding the best team in mind; for better or worse.
Throughout this season, David Stearns has regularly legally manipulated the roster in ways to benefit the club long-term while carefully planning the implementation of other decisions. From keeping Francisco Alvarez down in the minors long enough to earn an extra year of control to keeping others on the farm for less than 20 days to keep their minor league option, we should fully expect more on the way in August.
