The New York Mets have to be worried about how the year has looked, and considering everything the organization has said this year, there's definitely a feeling of frustration. That frustration needs to be tamed at the trade deadline, however, as the Mets can't just make moves just to do things.

The biggest thing at the trade deadline is having a plan. Whether that plan is to move on from guys, try to improve the farm system, or look to get better in the immediate future, as long as everybody is on the same page, there's really nothing to be too worried about.

According to SNY, that will be one of the biggest questions the Mets have to answer at this deadline.

“Still, the first thing I would do is go to Cohen and say, do you want me to try to save this season at any cost, or do you want me to operate with an eye toward the future.

“If he says the former, I would take advantage of my financial flexibility and pursue a major trade for a big contract that might bring in a new veteran presence and might also bring in some kind of bullpen help or starting depth if I shouldered enough of the money,” Chelsea Janes of SNY wrote.

There's again not really going to be any right or wrong answer in moments like this.
