I confess I actually thought Labatts Blue was a good beer. I really thought that for a long time.

Snow game for sure!

Well said MrBlueskky and Gungny. Hopefully that rough patch is behind them, that was some horrific baseball. LGM!

Had a healthy legged Ces or Nimmo been in LF his line would have looked much better. He already looked light years better than the other soft tossing lefty the rotation named Vargas. Speaking of Vargas...he better step up tonight!

Looks like during the 2 off days was the time the pecking order of the bullpen changed. Mickey is still a work in progress but he seems to be adapting well at each sign of adversity of hiccup and that is a good sign. Wish Swarzak did not suffer a setback because that will make the pen that much better and deeper. My guess is Memorial Day. Stole one in STL last night! What win..I made it up for the entirety of that one too. Set up with Noah and Jake in the next 2 to at least take the series. I love how tomorrow is an afternoon game so we can focus completely on the draft tomorrow night. Vargas comes back Saturday and even if he pitches to career norm it's a huge upgrade from Harvey. He will really stabilize the rotation. I think last nights outing by Wheeler is what we will get from him occasionally. It happens. No way I want Lugo coming out of his role to enter the rotation. He's too valuable where he is now. LGM! Edit: Whoops its Matz tonight. My bad. Not Noah.

Spot on!

1st - Gonzo with a 0 WAR and 770's ops SS - Rosario with a 0 WAR and a 660's ops LF - Cespy with a 0 WAR and a 650's ops RF - Bruce with a -.3 WAR and a 610's ops C - 0 WAR and a 580's ops That's below avg production from 5 of the 8 positions (primary starters).....and yet, the team has the best record in the National League. Imagine when these guys (mainly Bruce and Cespy) level off to their career norms....and Rosario gets some time under his belt and starts to develop (fingers crossed) and we hopefully make a move at C......1st base, who knows and hell, the pitching staff hasn't even shaken out just yet. Either that start was a fluke, or this team could be something special when it starts firing on all cylinders Good list. I am sure there are more...doing yard work today and will try and think of more. Great point!!

I was thinking about him as well. Good call. Great win last night! 10 game road trip starts tonight in Atlanta for 4 STL for 3 SD for 3 I would love a 6-4 (or better) trip myself! More Nimmo pleeeeeeeeeeease!!

Completely agree. The true test comes tomorrow night. How they bounce back. It’s just an ugly loss all around. Divional foe was gasping for air and they let them offthr hook. Like someone said..Jake was DEALING, divisional foe and a depleted B lineup scored 6. Just can’t lose those games. I’m really curious how they bounce back tomorrow night. Wheeler pitching for his life tomorrow too, this won’t be the Marlins.

Welllllllllll that was a pretty horrific loss. Shades of 2007/08. Yikes! Just want to completely forget that one! Wow. No words. Not one guy outta that pen did their job. Not one.

I hope the Mets staff was watching and taking notes on Bart tonight. Especially Harvey. Mixing everything up and in and both sides of the plate and sitting at 86-88. Location location location! Lighting up the radar gun isn’t always how it’s done. Wow he put on a clinic tonight.

Harvey once again could not make it past the 5th. Would it matter even if he did make it to the 6th? He was piss poor again. Only pitching in MLB not to make it PAST the 5th in his last 10 consecutive starts. They are going to have to make a decision with him and soon. Varags is on the way back soon and Wheeler turned a lot of heads last week in Miami. Maybe he can go to the pen? What I do know is he is not helping this team every 5th day.

Sorry to hear about your boy. I hope he can rejoin the team soon? Please keep us updated as I love hearing things like that! LGM!!!!!!

So when’s the last time the Bills AND Mets made the playoffs in the same season? 99? Mets made the WC aka Ventura’s GS single and Music City Miracle ?

So what do you guys thinks the Bills are gonna do on draft day? What QB do they get? Mock draft? I kid, I kid. This thread has been a great diversion and a 10-1 start is the cherry on top! LGM

X-rays negative is all I know. I’m sure it swelled up like a balloon on the flight home and this morning. Good shot we see Nido play Fri/Sat is my guess.

Would have to trade for him and quite honestly I’m not sure giving up prospects for him would be wise. He’s really declined over the past 2 years. Ill have to scour the waiver wire and check my Mets message boards and see if I hear anything

I want Realmutto! Mets have the pieces despite how “the experts” value the farm.

TDL errr I mean TDA partually torn UCL. Most likely we’ve seen his last days as a Met if he needs surrgery. Would also explain why his throwing has been even worse than usual at trying to catch guys stealing. He just never could stay on the field long enough to show what he could have been. 2015 was a nice season for him and 2 huge playoff HR’s that helped the Mets take the lead and win but the guy just can’t stay off the DL. Nido called up. Looks like Plawecki will get the lions share of PT. I’m betting Sandy isn’t content with that and will be monitoring the trade wire.

Not unless Logo and Gsvllman get burned out and how the off days are managed. Callaway is carrying an extra reliever no in case of this. Something to keep an eye on. Lugo and Gsleeman are the key, they can go multiple innings. However I do agree we are going to need length at some point. I was hoping last night but that did not happen. LGM.

LGM!!!!!!! I love this team!

Interesting move today...Nimmo sent down for Sewald. Before everyone freaks out I will try to be the voice of reason. With Lagares emerging as a viable option to not only be a starter again when called upon and the Mets facing 2 lefties this week....AND....I think they do not trust Wheeler on Wednesday going more than 5 I can see why an arm is being summoned from Vegas. While Nimmo is a curious move he just seems to be the odd man out right now. Also...perhaps they find some "phantom DL" move for Sewald who has not pitched since the STL series and Nimmo does not even leave South Beach and can be called back up immediately and avoid the 10 day call up rule? Just spitballing. I know it is not a popular move and I love Nimms a lot too but the new staff earns some credence IMO.I hate playing with a short bench but there must be a reason. I'm not saying I love the move...just willing to wait and see what happens.

Agree on catcher however that’s the one position in MLB that there is a scarcity of. Nido is the best option in the minors and been thought highly of but has been up and down as far as consistency goes. He’s here in Binghamton now and off to a decent start. Lobaton in Vegas is just a backup. Our best bet as Met fans is to pray Nido makes some noise in the minors this year.

What a breath of fresh air a new manager is. Prepared, diligent, intelligent and articulate. Pushing all the right buttons. I read he asked all the vets after the late night DC game if they wanted off and all of them said absolutely not so you know damn well they are buying into him and got his back. With that being said Ces suposssedly has flu like symptoms and could use a night off. Looks like Noah developed a blister which explains why he hit a wall in the 5th...I have full confidence in Jake tonight going at least 7 (prefer 8) and giving the pen a night off. This team os VERY VERY LIKABLE! Also I was pretty hard on Agon in ST...I would like my crow served fried at a Bills tailgate this fall please. LGM!!
