Despite a sky-high payroll again, it is yet another struggle for the New York Mets.

The Amazin's won 101 games in 2022, but things came crashing down last year when they won 75 last season - right now, they are 19-23.

The Mets did not have many expectations heading into this season, as new president of baseball operations David Stearns seems to be waiting a bit before pouncing (next year's free agent class is stacked) - the largest contract New York gave this offseason was the two-year, $28 million they gave to pitcher Sean Manaea.

With New York off to yet another disappointing start, and guys like Pete Alonso, Jose Quintana, and J.D. Martinez set to become free agents upon season's end, it's a fair question as to whether the Mets will sell at the trade deadline and continue to build on their farm system. That's what they did last year when they traded away Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer, Mark Canha and Tommy Pham.

Well, Steve Cohen may or may not have revealed that's the case.
