Alright, alright, let’s talk about this fella, Trevor Bauer, and them Mets. I heard folks chatterin’ ’bout it, so I figured I’d put in my two cents, you know, like how we do when gossiping over the fence.
So, this Bauer fella, he’s a pitcher, throws the ball real hard, I reckon. Folks say he’s good, real good, won some kinda fancy award, a “Cy Young” they call it. Sounds like a big deal, like winnin’ the biggest pumpkin at the county fair.
Now, the Mets, they’re a baseball team, from New York City. Big city, lots of fancy folks, probably never seen a real cow up close. Anyways, the Mets, they were thinkin’ ’bout gettin’ Bauer to play for ’em. Makes sense, right? Good team wants a good pitcher. Like plantin’ good seeds to get a good crop.
But then, somethin’ happened. Bauer, he went and signed with the Dodgers instead. Dodgers, they’re another team, out in California. Warm weather out there, I hear. Maybe he likes the sunshine more than the city hustle. Can’t blame him, sunshine feels good on your bones, ‘specially when your joints start achin’ like mine.
Why didn’t Bauer come to the Mets in the first place? Well, I ain’t privy to all the details, mind ya. But from what I gather, there was some… trouble. Folks whisperin’ about things he said and did. Sounds like he got himself into a heap of trouble. Like that time ol’ Jed got caught with the neighbor’s chickens. Lord, that was a mess!
Anyways, Bauer went off to play in Japan for a while. Japan! That’s across the big ol’ ocean. They eat a lot of fish over there, I heard. Good for the brain, they say. Maybe Bauer needed some fish to clear his head.
- The Mets Need Pitching: Now, the Mets, they got a bit of a problem. Their ace pitcher, Senga, got hurt. Can’t pitch for a while, poor fella. That’s like your best plow horse breakin’ a leg right before harvest. Not good.
- Could Bauer Be an Option?: So, some folks are sayin’, “Hey, maybe the Mets should try gettin’ Bauer again.” He’s back from Japan now, you see. But, I don’t know. Seems like a lot of baggage to carry. Like luggin’ a sack of rocks up a hill.
- Bauer’s Past: That trouble he got into, it ain’t just gone away. People remember things, you know? It’s like a stain on your best tablecloth, you can try to wash it out, but sometimes it just won’t budge. And let me tell you, some stains are just stubborn.
Some say the Mets are “naive” to think they could handle Bauer. Naive? That’s a fancy word for bein’ kinda dumb, ain’t it? Like thinkin’ you can outsmart a fox. Them city folk, they use big words sometimes.
But hey, maybe the Mets are desperate. Maybe they think they can fix him, make him behave. Like tryin’ to tame a wild stallion. Can be done, I suppose, but it takes a whole lot of patience and a strong hand.
But then there’s all that talk about him joining the Yankees. The Yankees! Another New York team, but these guys are rivals with the Mets. It’s like the Hatfields and McCoys of baseball, always fightin’ and fussin’. If Bauer went there… well, that would just stir the pot, wouldn’t it? Like throwin’ kerosene on a bonfire.
Honestly, I don’t know what’s gonna happen. This baseball business is complicated, more complicated than milkin’ a cow with three teats, I tell ya. But one thing’s for sure, it’ll be interestin’ to see how it all shakes out. Maybe Bauer will end up pitchin’ for the Mets after all, maybe he’ll go somewhere else. Maybe he’ll just retire and raise chickens. Who knows? Life’s full of surprises, like findin’ a double yolk in your egg.
In my opinion, the Mets need to think long and hard before they do anything. They gotta weigh the good with the bad, the talent with the trouble. It ain’t an easy decision, not like pickin’ between apple pie and peach cobbler. Both are good, but sometimes you just gotta choose one. And sometimes, you end up wishin’ you’d picked the other one.
So, we’ll just have to wait and see. Keep our ears open, listen to the chatter, and see what them fellas in the city decide to do. In the meantime, I got chores to do. Them chickens ain’t gonna feed themselves, you know. And that well water ain’t gonna fetch itself neither.
