Well, that happened

The 2018 Mets included Adrian Gonzalez, Jose Bautista, and Austin Jackson. Someone really needs to tell Fred and Jeff that it’s not 2011 anymore. No wonder Jose Reyes started 48 games… Maybe half of the 2018 newcomers will be back in 2019, so is it even worth going over who did what to whom? A good number of them will probably never get a Rookie Card, much less an autograph card, so they’re largely irrelevant anyway. The back half was just Jeff McNeil and a bunch of random guys, so let’s just leave it at that. Sadly, that might also describe Mets Rookie Card offerings for the first half of 2019…
