"In four games with the Rangers, Verrett had a 6.00 ERA with three strikeouts and four walks in 9.0 innings of work. The Rangers can trade him now, but as a Rule 5 pick, the rules that stipulate a team must keep him on the major league roster all year to retain him beyond 2015 still apply. If he is not traded, he'll hit waivers, and if he clears waivers, he has to be offered back to the Mets."
I hope we get to Sabathis and Harvey has a good outing. I can see the same thing happen as yesterday if he isn't good right away.
Oh and is this a total reverse of years past? The Mets were always one of the tops in the league in scoring in the first inning. Now they are usually getting no-hit or there's a perfect game in the first three innings against them. I think it's better to score later it's just a complete 360.
Hopefully Harvey's sprained ankle is as mild an issue as they have made it out to be. I always worry when a pitcher has something going on with his legs or feet that is doesn't alter his motion in any way to where is causes some unusual stress on his pitching arm and risks injury.
He needs to watch video of schilling in the 2004 alcs
He's always busted it 100%, was here through the darkest of the dark days, got thrown into the fire defensively at 2 different positions, and now as they turn the corner it's just clear he's not going to be a part of it. I want to upgrade his defense as much as anyone but he's been a good Met and I hope things work out for both sides. Worst case scenario I guess he could be a great bench bat/insurance against an injury to Wright?
they aren't going to advance Herrera needlessly, nor sell Murph off for no reason, but obviously it's already a topic of conversation around the club. Just saying it's something that would be in anyone's head in that situation. This is his life/livelihood.
I could see Herrera up by the end of May/Beginning of June
to their bullshit, shame on me. Anyway, I would go along with Keith Hernandez and put Murphy on notice that he has to clean up the fielding mental screw ups. He is not on scholarship

Same BS every year on BBI with the Subway series. Don't get sucked in.
The guy is playing the best center fielding the game right now so how great is it when he can do that at the plate as well? There are so many individual player stories to watch this season it is going to be a very fun season to watch.
Lagares going 4 for 4, another 2 hit day for Flores, 1st HR for
If they get abusive, just ignore them or leave the thread. I don't want to have to ban people for this shit.
It's like the political stuff. Most people are OK to be reasonable and respect differing opinions, but it's always a few assholes who ruin it for everyone.
When your little brother grows up and is bigger and stronger.
Then kicks your ass in front of everyone.
Doesn't matter how many you have won in the past.
Little brother is winning now so deal with it.
sorry Gary, I really wasnt trying to be an asshole
But the Mets thread yesterday became...well, im sure you read it. There was no reason for it to get that bad if we just could keep things separate...as was the intention.
And todays thread was fine for the most part...until it wasnt. Hopefully tomorrow is better.
Mets have alot of winning to do before we can start gloating.
I agree, but there was zero reason for that outlash by that one Yankee fan today. Even on yesterday's thread, there were three harmless comments made by some of us in the heat of the moment and then came the onslaught of Yankee fans to either rub the win in our faces or defend the honor of the Yankees. I mean, come on. Just grow up already. Doubt it will happen though.
Let's try to take the high road and see where it goes.
Harvey's a beast but not quite in a rhythm yet, hopefully we can steal one of off him while he's still working his way back into beast mode.
Welcome back Logan? - ( New Window )

I hope harvey pitches a gem and the mets bats wake up, some of these guys are really struggling.
Weird that as soon as the games matter he can't hit.
They are waiting for Herrera to be ready
It's more likely that Murph starts hitting, though.
He's a career 288 hitter and there is nothing to indicate that he won't do it again this season.
Same BS every year on BBI with the Subway series. Don't get sucked in.
Harvey was a true stopper today.
