Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

I let you do whatever you want.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

Didn't work out.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

Now this is entirely your fault.

Baseball Isn’t Boring

So while I think Stearns' job is safe for next season, I think Stearns is calling the shots.

I think Steve Cohen believes in his ability to find talent, and he found David Stearns.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

Um, and he has the leeway to make those decisions.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

I mean, there have been times of course, or at worst Cohen has stepped in.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

Uh, but I do think that David Stearns is running the show right now.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

Um, simply because I think that that's how Cohen does business.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

So we'll see how it goes.

West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

I, you know, like Cohen is a fan, sure, but he's a businessman first and foremost.

Baseball Isn’t Boring

And when you want to see how people do business, you have to look at the way that they've done business in the past.

I mean, it's hard to tell because I haven't met.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

I mean, maybe I've texted one or two of these guys, but I haven't really met them in person.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

So I don't want to give my opinion.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

I mean, from what I'm told, that Kai Correa is a defensive whiz.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

That is what they brought him on for run prevention.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

And then they either promoted or have hired four people who are part of player development, which is kind of like,

Baseball Isn’t Boring
West Coast Bias: Laura Albanese Discusses What's Next For The Mets After Losing Edwin Diaz And Pete Alonso

which is a good sign.

I mean, these are people, especially with the Mets, having a lot of young talent.
