Stearns' fingerprints are all over this team and his hands are filthy.
First, he dumps the core including Alonso tells us all it's about run prevention. That was a lie. You want to argue Nimmo's contract was bad and Alonso isn't really good...fine you have your opinions. What you can not argue is what Stearns did to replace them. He signs an injury prone player to replace Alonso, one who never played 1st base before. That alone is an awful decision. Worse though is knowing he was an oft injured player with no experience at first and Stearns puts together NO back up plan. None. We have Vientos and Young playing there. Signs Robert Jr another notoriously injury prone player who what a surprise has been injured all year. Not sure what everyone does for a living here but I promise if we made decisions like that and it burned our employer we'd all be fired! Also, it is obvious he is making game day decisions for Management. Horrendous line ups during the year playing the Wagaman's of the baseball world over starters in important games. And just yesterday Ewing is benched against Sale. Yes, a tough lefty and Ewing is struggling against lefties but he is a rookie, he is our FUTURE, we are not winning anyway, we are 15.5 games out, give him the experience asshat. There is no way Green made that call on his own. (Ewing had two hits against two different lefties today btw) Stearns fired Hefner last year blaming him for the pitching collapse, the one Stearns created. No accountability there. Now Hefner, one of the better pitching coaches in baseball, is guiding the pitching staff of the team with the best record in baseball. He didnt beleive Richardson was an asset to this team. Let him walk and Mets go from top five in steals last year to bottom three this year. Lastly, not a week ago Stearns was still trying to sell us on the "process" it's still early. I could go on. His arrogance has killed this team.
