The New York Rangers and New York Mets are in the news. The Rangers are discussing potential trades, including one involving forward Miller, with some suggesting they should trade him for a top-9 right wing. The Mets are struggling with their pitching approach, with some fans and commentators criticizing their analytics department and suggesting they need to acquire real starting pitching.

The New York Rangers and New York Mets are in the news. The Rangers are discussing potential trades, including one involving forward Miller, with some suggesting they should trade him for a top-9 right wing. The Mets are struggling with their pitching approach, with some fans and commentators criticizing their analytics department and suggesting they need to acquire real starting pitching.

"@WardyNYM Diaz gave the #Mets plenty of chances the Mets clearly werent going to give Diaz what he wanted which wasnt far off the Mets offer. Its clear again that Stearns had no desire to sign Diaz"

"@ernestdove Because Harper was a good fielder to begin with Polanco isnt. And this doesnt address your post which is comparing apples to oranges. Atlanta signed a SS to play SS and wasnt replacing a longtime fan favorite star player at SS because their GM is dismantling the team #Mets"

"@Masterflip_ And there it is - the #Mets could have taken the deal but didnt. Because they were never signing Diaz. The X time champs said yes we will take the best closer in baseball. The small market GM said no Ill go with my guy from Milwaukee who chokes in every big spot but is cheaper"

"@CuylleFC How did the Rangers have "arguably the brightest future" All of Gorton's draft picks busted. Drury's mistake was holding onto them too long. Drury has put this team in a bad spot now but he also went to X semifinals so its been a mixed bag #NYR"
