BY MARK HALPERN As we watch the World Series, it got me thinking on how the Mets need to improve and potentially get there. My last article (https://thesportsinsanitynetwork.com/2025/10/19/options-for-rotation-and-bullpen/) focused on the pitching side, so now let’s focus on the rest of the team.

OPTIONS FOR ROTATION AND BULLPEN
BY MARK HALPERN This past season for the Mets was the hardest to swallow. We entered the season with a very capable line up and what started off as a pitching staff.

SOUVENIRS
BY MARK HALPERN In sports there are ways to own Sports Memorabilia from meeting the player(s) at a sports convention or sometimes Grand Opening of new businesses.

COWBOYS ARE NOT CLOWNING AROUND
BY MARK HALPERN With the loss of DeMarcus Lawrence and Micah Parsons the Dallas defense seemed weaker.

OFF TO A VERY SLOW START BUT DON’T WORRY
BY MARK HALPERN Cedric Mullins has been a consistent player in the MLB for better than the last 7 years. He was a staple in Baltimore’s lineup from 2013-2025 (when he was traded to the Mets) and plays Center Field well. The one thing that has fallen off a little has been his bat but,Continue reading “OFF TO A VERY SLOW START BUT DON’T WORRY”
IS THE POLAR BEAR GONNA STAY?
BY MARK HALPERN The New York Mets lineup is one of the deadliest lineups in all of baseball. When the Mets signed Juan Soto, there were a few purposes. One Soto is an elite talent and two if the Mets were to be able to re-sign Pete Alonso, he’d have protection in the lineup forContinue reading “IS THE POLAR BEAR GONNA STAY?”
