NFT: Mets Let's play two! Mets and Cardinals

ZGiants98 : 7/26/2016 9:39 am
-Syndergaard Vs Carlos Martinez

-Colon VS Jaime Garcia

-Mets will need a spot starter Saturday due to the doubleheader

-Gilmartin to DL. Not an option

-Sandy says no big deals (1. This lets teams know we are not desperate. 2.) Prevents fans from being let down IMO)

de Aza has an .852 OPS in July..  
arcarsenal : 7/26/2016 8:54 pm : link
He hasn't been dreadful. I know he has sucked for the most part but I honestly think if he played more regularly he'd be better. Some guys just can't play so sparingly and produce.
Cabrera drove in a run!

Cespedes cannot play every day to maintain his production
Flores should never leave this lineup  
pjcas18 : 7/26/2016 9:47 pm : link
Sandy should tell TC he's fired if he puts out a lineup that doesn't have Flores in it. Don't care where, have him play every single IF spot.

this lineup is so weak need to maximize every shred of offense.

TC is such

I'd see if they have any interest in two months of Colon.
We cant afford to trade Colon

We dont even have a starter from AAA for Saturday.

Seth Lugo? Yuck. Montero wouldve been more intriguing

We are too thin. We actually need another "Colon" IMO.
Man "good Colon" is on tonight.

Gotta think that's a pretty big adjustment going from Thor to Colon in the same day.

20 % the Mets get a big bat.

Well, he pitched about 3-4 games in a row in Vegas with good results and then tweaked a hammy. He'll be back eventually. Still think Sandy brings in a vet. In fact, Id be shocked if he didn't.

August 8th our schedule eases up some. Hopefully, Duda is close to back around that time.

The Mariners announced tonight that they have acquired right-hander Drew Storen and cash considerations from the Blue Jays in exchange for right-hander Joaquin Benoit. Storen was designated for assignment by the Blue Jays over the weekend.

The #Mets will bring Bartolo Colon back on short rest Saturday, rather than use a spot starter like Seth Lugo or Gabriel Ynoa.

When Bartolo came up there were 4 man rotations. No es problema

Crazy hypothetical  
Metnut : 7/27/2016 9:17 am : link
but if the Mets were willing to absord the entire Joey Votto contract, what else would they need to offer Cinci to bring him to Citi Field?

He basically gets paid $22.5M until 2023. I doubt the Mets would want to take on the entire contract, but talk about adding some juice to the offense...

Yea it's rough, maybe Reds would eat some of it?

Guy is the OBP king. Best overall year of his career was in 2015. Bad start to this year but absolutely on fire lately. Aside from 2014, when he was injured, can almost pencil him in for 6.0+ War each year.

I understand trade is unrealistic for many reasons, but if you want to maximize the Mets chances of winning a ring in the next three years, he'd really help.

Big win to get the split. The Nationals are in trouble with Papelbon and the Yankees keep winning so they may not even get to a point where they make Miller available. If they do, the price is going to be incredibly steep.

Hard to believe we're only 4.5 back right now.. the Nats really have missed some prime opportunities to run away with this thing. I love that we're still on their tails but we can't let up. We have to take advantage of the schedule we have coming up and go on a serious run.

Familia's sinker was as good as I've ever seen it last night. Absolute filth. And what else can you say about Reed? The guy has been incredible. 0.00 ERA in his last 13+ innings. Has like 20 K's and 1 BB in that span. He and Jeurys are one hell of a 1-2 punch right now and I love Robles as the 7th inning guy.

Gotta hit and score more runs, though. Was nice to see Droobie finally break that skid. And we really need to take this series. Hopefully the offense can get to Wainwright and Verrett can keep us in it.
If Conforto and Walker get going we will go on a run  
Eric on Li : 7/27/2016 9:55 am : link
but at this point it's hard to figure out what it's going to take for that to happen. The BP, like the first half of last year has been our team MVP. We get just enough SP and hitting, then they continue to not create self inflicted wounds. Glad the FO isn't taking them for granted though because there's a real risk of wearing these guys out, especially once the race gets tighter.

Wild prediction... I predict Votto is traded to the Blue Jays this off-season.
