In their quest to bring in new faces to the organization while still being as cheap as possible, the Mets have signed first baseman Adrian Gonzalez.
Gonzalez was released by the Braves earlier this offseason after they acquired him from the Dodgers in a big trade that sent Matt Kemp over to Los Angeles.
This signing would have been exciting, if it was 2010, but unfortunately in this day and age, Gonzalez is a player that frankly shouldn’t have even been looked at by this team.
He’s unfortunately a shell of his old self both on the offensive and defensive side of the ball, so his upside isn’t exactly promising.
