    He's certainly having contact issues still.

    Yeah, that is why they are called errors.

    He's got a career .996 fielding percentage at 1B. He does okay.

    Like I said the day it went down... freaking TERRIBLE trade!

    Not commenting on any trade.

    No doubt...He's not bad at all with the leather normally....but that was ML flub.

    He certainly wouldn't be pushing anyone here for PT.

    Upon acquiring Greg Goosen on waivers from the Dodgers, Mets Manager, Casey Stengel introduced him with "This is Greg Goosen. He's 19 years old, and in 10 years he's got a chance to be 29 ".

    ....why? If they hadn't traded Davis, he'd be somewhere else this year anyway.

    Fact of the matter remains, Davis + Hunter > Koji, and it isn't even close.
