Editor's Note: For the remainder of the regular season, Mets360 will be a free site, one open to everyone. They’ve been a membership site since January of 2021 and will be so once again in October. So, if you like the Mets and great Mets analysis, check out the site for the next two months.

About 10 days ago, I wrote an entirely different column than what appears here. The previous version was a decently upbeat assessment of the Mets’ short-term future and a maybe too rosy look at the talent the team obtained by trading aging superstars.
Then I watched the first two games of the Royals series – with the likes of Danny Mendick and D.J. Stewart in the starting lineup. The thought of living through two more years of barely major league players just for the hope of better players rising through the farm system is enough to turn off the baseball switch for 18 months and repurpose the time to refinishing furniture.
