The New York Mets could find ways to get Kyle Tucker into their lineup. Let’s say he’s feeling extra charitable and money is no concern. He’s coming to the Mets to hit homers, steal runs, and win championships.
The fit would take some maneuvering even without subtraction. Tucker goes to right field. Juan Soto and Brandon Nimmo share left field and the DH spot. Bada-bing! The Mets lineup is stacked beyond belief. The true power of having the richest owner in the sport shines.
No one seriously expects them to actually sign Tucker this offseason. However, if we change one important aspect of last year’s team, it becomes a reasonable next step.
