Jeez, talk about stupid comments. He was roughed up in the playoffs. He had a nice regular season for us. The Mets just wanted higher ceiling guys. It’s not personal at all.

I found it very surprising no team offered him a major league job until the Cardinals did in the beginning of spring training though. The Mets are one thing, but there's probably 20 clubs that could use him.Jeez, talk about stupid comments. He was roughed up in the playoffs. He had a nice regular season for us.

Depends on the money, right. He is nothing special. That is why he was available in the first place to us. He’s a serviceable bullpen piece. That’s it. Teams don’t want to pay big money year to year on the bullpen because of the up and down nature of results.
Maybe he thinks he’s a front line guy and wanted to be paid like one. Didn’t happen. Not personal. A small sample this year he pitched well for the Cards. I still fear his hanging sliders. During the season he got away with it. Not so much in the playoffs.
It does depend on the money, but he didn't even got a roster invite until the Cardinals! Him being serviceable is exactly right. That should be enough for a majority of pens. I just think MLB owners are extremely cheap.
For us, it didn't make much sense. We need more guys with minor league options. Its a great problem, but what are we going to do when Nunez is ready to come back up?

Is this guy the next Paul Sewald?
When Nunez is ready I assume one of two things will happen. Either someone who just pitched comes up with the phantom 10 Day IL stint injury or someone gets DFA’d….paging Danny Young. His only positive aka reason for keeping him here is that his pitching arm happens to be the one on the left. He’s terrible so I hope his time has expired.
