With the Mets making a weekend move, Joel Sherman fired up his camera for a Saturday edition of 3 Things I Think.
The Jorge Polanco signing won’t make Mets fans forget about the losses, but Joel will explain why this deal is a small piece in the bigger picture for New York’s ultimate plan.
Plus, with all the talk from David Stearns about run prevention at the end of this past season, Joel tells us exactly where Polanco will likely play on defense and why his impact in the clubhouse might be just as much a fit as he will be between the lines.
Finally, Joel will explain why, offensively, fans shouldn’t look at Polanco’s skill set as a replacement for Pete Alonso’s bat, but more like the slash line of another now-departed fan favorite.
