In case you needed more proof the mets are ownership is nothing but a bunch of chickenshit, they decided today to option Dom Smith, their best bench bat, and only lefty, and only backup first baseman for Adeiny Hechevarria, career like .230 hitter. Dom has been thriving in a pinch hit role, but they said "he needs to get ABs every day". what a load of bullshit. No you don't when you are thriving as a PH and have been proving it in the minors for years. He's FINALLY seeing success here.

The only logical reason why this move would be made is of course, $. They're paying Hechevarria anyway, and they save $1M by calling him up today. He gets a 1 million dollar bonus for being on the roster 150 days. There are 149 days left in the season. It's so blatant what they're doing. They are clearly not trying to have the best 25 man on the roster.

This is $3M for Hechevarria mind you, that could've gone to Gio Gonzalez or pitching depth instead.

Oh yeah, there's a reminder for you they paid THREE MILLION DOLLARS for a 3rd string shortstop.

Holy fucking hell , this franchise you guys. They clearly do not care about winning.
