Danny Abriano SNY.TV: 5 things Mets must do to make postseason leap in 2023. Mets won 101 games in 2022, but some key missing elements hurt them down the stretch and in October.  These include: Add more punch to the offense; Don't abandon having a dominant 1-2 punch at the top of the rotation; Let Francisco Alvarez cook (Danny thinks he should be the Opening Day catcher); Have a greater sense of urgency; Learn from their season-ending experience.

SportingNews.com: Aaron Judge landing spots: Ranking the best free-agent fits, from Yankees to Phillies.  About the Mets they say: "Unless Aaron Judge really hates the Yankees in ways that nobody really understands, it feels like the Mets would have to massively outbid the Yankees for Judge’s signature on a contract, something along the lines of $350 million to the Yankees’ $300 million."
