The Mets Get Some Help From Long Island
Jackie Bradley Jr. has had quite the headline making couple of weeks on the Island. After setting the franchise record for most consecutive games with a hit for the Long Island Ducks, a week later the Ducks have announced that his contract has been purchased by the New York Mets organization.
Sell The Farm - Yankees Trade Targets
The Bombers have some pretty obvious holes. Third base has been a major need all season long. Oswaldo Cabrera isn't the answer and despite his contract DJ the Machine, hasn't looked anything like his old self with just three extra base hits all season. The bullpen is an issue as well and needs more than just one piece, but a lefty reliever is a must have. The fanbase would also like a starter and impact bat, but as the want list gets longer, the competition to fill those needs gets greater.Here are the most likely Yankee trade targets to watch in the next week plus:
Mascot Ban Hits Suffolk
Half Hollow Hills East will change its nickname from the Thunderbirds to the Red Hawks. The symbol, nickname and mascot will all be changed to reflect the new name, but the school will keep its primary school colors of black and red. They plan to make the change when students return this fall.
Meet The New Mets?
Addressing the bullpen will be crucial. The Mets don't even know if they can trust their high paid closer Edwin Diaz so this is a must add at the break if they want to compete. The Amazin's likely aren't willing to part with big names for a guy like Mason Miller with the whole league chasing the young fireballer. That leaves guys like Kyle Finnegan, but that's an in division deal which makes it unlikely, and Jason Adam. Adam clicks a lot of boxes for New York. He has been a set up man and a closer and can jockey between the two seamlessly. In this Mets bullpen getting the key outs will be more important than getting the last outs and Adam seems like a good fit for that role. The same can be said for his teammate Pete Fairbanks, the Rays know how to use relievers in multiple roles and are falling out of the race. Tampa is a good spot to buy from.If New York wants an arm they likely won't get into the Garrett Crochet or even Erik Fedde free for all, but some lower names might be good to eat innings. Players lik
Smithtown Fire Department serves as color guard at Mets vs Blue Jays game
The Smithtown Fire Department had the opportunity to serve as the color guard during the national anthems at a baseball game between the New York Mets and the Toronto Blue Jays.
TLaw Is Money In The Bank
With that said quarterbacks are one of the safer positions to project upside and health with. That leads us to an underrated asset this season in Trevor Lawrence. TLaw walked into the league with as much hype as any prospect not named Andrew Luck or John Elway. Lawrence's shine faded quickly after his disastrous coach led him to a first year mess, and naysayers are still loud after last season, but that is a good thing for finding value.
Resiliency Plan Will Bolster Suffolk's Coast
Suffolk's coast will be bolstered under a plan announced last week by County Executive Ed Romaine. Phase 1 of a $1.3 million Coastal Resiliency Program aims to protect the mainland and improve water quality and wildlife habitat at three county-owned sites in Westhampton Beach and East Islip.
