I definitely liked him in Boston as well.

You look at their need for power.

I thought it was a match made in heaven partly because of the wife being from Massachusetts, and I bought into that a little bit for sure.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB on the Go: How Adam Ottavino Views The Mets' Situation

Yeah, me too.

But, you know, it looks like Baltimore really wanted him.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB on the Go: How Adam Ottavino Views The Mets' Situation

And truthfully, I'm just super happy for him because it's crazy to do everything right.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB on the Go: How Adam Ottavino Views The Mets' Situation

your whole career and yeah like you're getting dinged a little bit because of some of your limitations but look at the big picture he's hit 200 and a bazillion home runs since he's come up and he's always driving the ball he's always contributing to runs being put on the board and then for just to be undervalued undervalued undervalued and now that he got the number that i guess you know it seems fair to me so i'm just happy for them basically you know it's you talk about pivot

He just clobbers home runs like he does.

So, you know, if you don't have that element, you're going to be having a score runs other ways.

And so it's a sum of the parts type of deal.

And it's just a little bit different.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB on the Go: How Adam Ottavino Views The Mets' Situation

It's a luxury to have it.

Baseball Isn’t Boring

And you're going to miss it.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB on the Go: How Adam Ottavino Views The Mets' Situation

I think the Mets will miss it.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
BIB on the Go: The What's What With Pete Alonso, With Adam Ottavino

The Orioles valued him for a reason.

And the Red Sox are really interesting to me because I thought, for me, Alonzo was, like Bregman was a year before, a perfect fit.

Not a perfect player, but a perfect fit.
