I'd be pissed off if I didn't see it coming. That, my friends, is the differnce between winning and losing baseball.

Flores OPS vs RHP .599
Loney OPS VS LHP .433

guess Terry is going no  
spike : 8/23/2016 10:34 pm : link
empty the bullpen tonight.

There has to be a better FA 1st baseman out there?

Or have Conforto or Jay Bruce play 1B
Double play if Walker's playing  
Eric on Li : 8/23/2016 10:37 pm : link
lame. Not at all comfortable with Henderson on the mound here.

Flores should have had that AB. You can blame Loney but TC just over managed

That was a fucking strike.

need some insurance runs

solo homer time!
Henderson looked  
Metnut : 8/23/2016 10:43 pm : link
solid. Some bite on the slider and a tight zone. Hopefully Terry remembers how bad Henderson looked on the second end of back to backs earlier in the season and doesn't run him into the ground again.
Henderson came up  
timintey : 8/23/2016 10:43 pm : link
huge!!!
What did I tell you boys about Henderson!

There you go!

TC is going to have to burn the pen if they are going to go on a run. The only innings eaters in the rotation now are Degrom and Syndergaard
The season hinges on our bats now  
spike : 8/23/2016 10:53 pm : link
As our pitching has hung on for soooo long and is now fallen apart.

DL Niese and let him sit

TC has to alternate Robles and Henderson as the 7th inning man to prevent overuse

It's like he didn't realize they would bring in the lefty.

He is really an awful strategist

Rosters expand in a week and fortunately for Mets they have some guys at AAA that can help.

Goeddel and Robles are both good pitchers who were over/mis-used by our bonehead manager. They will be fine if they get some extended rest

Nice inning

from Reed there. Faced some tough professional hitters.
Lol

Im happy that ball stayed inside the fence.

Come on bats, just one more insurance run

Loney redeems himself with a hit in RiSP situation
nice piece of hitting by Loney - he's not a very good player  
Eric on Li : 8/23/2016 11:19 pm : link
but he's found ways to contribute.
Jay K Bruce wanted Familia to close  
spike : 8/23/2016 11:20 pm : link
Not Robles!
Feel for Bruce ...  
Stufftherun : 8/23/2016 11:22 pm : link
he's getting the pitches but just can't square 'em up.
Bruce has been just awful  
Vanzetti : 8/23/2016 11:24 pm : link
I was hoping having Cespedes back would help him relax. But so far no luck.
Gutsy win ...  
Stufftherun : 8/23/2016 11:28 pm : link
still got some life.
Well not  
Metnut : 8/23/2016 11:28 pm : link
a bad start. Need DeGrom to get back on track tomorrow night.
Bruce should either bat 3rd to get some fat pitches  
spike : 8/23/2016 11:29 pm : link
Or bat 6th.

Hes struggling out there
3.5 out  
spike : 8/23/2016 11:30 pm : link
Gotta keep winning and stay healthy, esp Cespedes.


Big game for the Mets and DeGrom tomorrow vs Cards ace Carlos
martinez
Big win...  
arcarsenal : 8/23/2016 11:31 pm : link
Have to take 2 of 3 at minimum here.. a sweep would be huge.
Bruce is a lot like Duda, except he's far less of a 1 year wonder  
Eric on Li : 8/23/2016 11:36 pm : link
he was slumping before the trade and he's still in one now, but he did have a couple big hits. If this team can keep rolling he will wake up at some point and have a big impact. I'd have preferred Lucroy's consistency (or Conforto not having a lost season) but I have faith Bruce will be a valuable contributor at a reasonable price.

Terry Collins says Robert Gsellman would be the logical choice to start Sunday against the Phillies, especially if Jon Niese lands on the disabled list because of his left knee discomfort. - Rubin

I would not let Niese

go near the pitching mound. Not even in blowouts

2 above average in 55 years. not bad
I don't think Randolph was a bad manager  
Ten Ton Hammer : 8/24/2016 12:39 am : link
He got stuck with some mentally frail players and a roster that got more flawed after 2006. Never really had the pitching to make an honest run, either.
lol u can't make this up

Count me as one who is not too saddened by this news. Never have been a Niese fan.
and if you recall, Mets fans couldn't wait to run Davey out of town

for Bud Harrelson. How'd that work out?

Be careful what you wish for.
