Bradley's agent is barking  
BigBlueShock : 4/16/2014 3:19 pm : link
he's not happy and he recently called Arizona out for holding him back. Towers insisted it has more to do with the losing culture right now and Bradley struggling in his last 2 starts in ST. We all know that bullshit and it's all about the money, but it will be interesting to see if Towers gives in and calls him up.

defense of the Mets/teams... the rules are what they are. Why wouldn't teams try and do this and 1. control a player for an extra year 2. control a players price an extra year? If you believe Syndergaard/Bradley are going to be big time players that is significant coin.

Dan, that's all fine, except for the other side of the coin. The players. The day will come when it's time to sit down and talk extension, and the players/agents may take offense to this. Most don't, but there is still that risk, and Bradley and his agent are making it clear that they aren't happy about it.

Once a player is a free agent that won't even enter a player or agents mind.

With Gee having lost his stuff late every game  
steve in ky : 4/16/2014 5:13 pm : link
Maybe they should be aggressive and pinch hit for him here. Unorthodox, but they could blow the game open with a big hit here.
It should have been a double play

the Mets luck there.

I would fire Collins today. Less than 75 pitches and he pulls Gee? unless Gee is hurt, Collins is an idiot

Three huge games coming up against the Braves.

It is just nice to actually be able to say big games coming up for the Mets. That alone says volumes.
Considering how they looked against the Nats

Switch him with Farnsworth
Was their a reason Davis played today?

Do they have any real hard throwing kids in the minors  
steve in ky : 4/16/2014 6:33 pm : link
that can get it over the plate for 1-2 innings? For this season at this point at least maybe bring him up and give him a shot.
*there a reason...

the next 7 on the road. I have a sense of dread playing when the Mets are at home.They play so much tighter at home
Yeah  
steve in ky : 4/16/2014 6:44 pm : link
They play lousy at Citi Field. If they could turn that around they may actually have a slight chance at Sandy's 90 win goal.
I'm interested to see how Chris Young fits in now  
Eric on Li : 4/16/2014 6:48 pm : link
He'll get to play CF and hit 5th while Lagares is out - with Duda or Davis hitting 6th the lineup could come close to feeling respectable.

Definitely need to do something about the BP though. It's certainly gotten a little bit better but more than another few weeks of Valverde closing games is asking for trouble. Hanrahan pls?
How are

Leathersich's command has been very bad. It is like he strikes out a guy or he walks him
We do need a closer.

and Terry Collins, it was the right move to pull Gee, his location wasn't what it was earlier, he had some hard hit balls and the play at 2nd base plus he had late inning trouble in a couple of starts, it was time to pull him and build his confidence.
some people are easily swayed by authority figures

This play is what I like about Gee.  
Ira : 4/17/2014 5:33 am : link
He doesn't have the stuff that some other pitchers have, but he's a great competitor.
