With the 2017 season on the horizon, New York Mets fans have a few items on their Christmas list for GM Sandy Alderson to consider.

You’ve given the New York Mets fan base so much over the last two years – including a superstar outfielder with power in Yoenis Cespedes, a pitching rotation full of aces, and even a trip to the World Series.

Your work has been accomplished through trades to enhance the organization with veteran leaders, as well as build a deep farm system that has finally come to fruition. This “small market team in a big market area” has now become a growing contender, after your substantial overhaul.

So without sounding ungrateful, the Mets-verse has just a few items on their “Christmas Wish List” for the upcoming 2017 MLB season.
