Captain Murica Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 (edited) 55 minutes ago, Misterbluesky said: I missed your takes...a few other things happened.Font went to Toronto for cash and the suit had a short presser that was worthless. We ended up giving up a 19 year old prospect that throws 95 mph to the Rays for Font which turned into cash.. It’s such a bad look. Catalina is 6-foot-6, just turned 19 and has a fastball that hits 95 mph. The #Mets signed him for $150,000 out of the Dominican Republic last year. The Mets gave up his young potential and intrigue for 15 games from Font. Edited July 19, 2019 by Captain Murica 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully the suit didn't move McNeil or Alonso in the off season,you know he thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinceThe70s Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Not gloating here about Matt Harvey, it's a shame how far he's fallen, I can remember when he looked destined for greatness and a big fear was that he'd flee to the Yankees as soon as he had a chance. I will gloat about the Angels giving him $11 mill. https://nypost.com/2019/07/19/matt-harvey-designated-for-assignment-by-angels/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Brodie's moves have been my main focus. It's too bad he didn't want to just polish up some things in the minors last year. I'm not saying that he'd be back to 2013 form but I'm thinking all this might have been prevented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had completely forgotten about him and the $11 mill contract. We got out at the right time IMO. There was just too much potential to give up on him before we did.

Rocket94 Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Any thoughts on Kyle Tucker the OF prospect from the Astros? Would a healthy Zach Wheeler be enough to get him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misterbluesky Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 A.J.,one of my favorite color guys compared McNeil's swing to George Brett's after that jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another Fan Posted July 22, 2019 Author Share Posted July 22, 2019 I guess it really didn’t matter much but that bothered me Diaz only pitched 1 inning. He had only 11 pitches and has off tomorrow. As I said not sure that would’ve changed the outcome but still.... You wonder if the suit is behind that I just found out that was Yaz’s grandson who got the wining hit. Didn’t even know he was in the league until today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I want to rip the bullpen, the Mets scored 1 run in 11 extra innings and 4 runs in the 38 innings that made up the three losses.

Gugny Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Mets are 5 games out of the Wild Card. Alonso writes an open letter to fans. Signs it with "LFGM." I love it. https://wfan.radio.com/articles/pete-alonso-pens-letter-rally-new-york-mets-fans "The boys are hot and we’ve been working our asses off. Hard work has been really paying off this second half. The rest of the season is going to be a really fun, wild and memorable ride. "Our goal is to make history. We strive every day to be great and nothing less.” 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
