T.J. Rivera has been demoted to clear the roster spot for Rafael Montero's spot start on Monday against the Marlins. Las Vegas' season ends next Monday, so at a maximum the demotion should last a week - Rubin
last night. Monetro has major league stuff and will have an MLB career if he can get his control back. His changeup is a really nice pitch that can get big league hitters out. Cespedes HR feels like the first really good moment we've had in a while.
Mets should send Montero down and bring Conforto up. Granderson and Bruce (especially Bruce) aren't contributing much. Conforto has the highest upside of the 3 and should have his confidence back after the AAA stint. Let's get our best players on the field.
Randomly, I thought Flores had some good ABs last night against right handed pitching.
Flores has played his best over the last month or so - he should be 1B
Cespedes is the heart and soul of the Mets now. They have to keep him. I don't know if I can watch this team next year if they let him go.. I will be so disgusted.
How good has Reyes been? I really missed him. It's so fun to watch #7 sparking the team again like he never left.
Huge getting that W with that pitching matchup. Rafa walked too many batters but can't argue with the results. Very encouraging outing for him.
It's a new game.
Looks like a shoulder
Reyes shouldnt have gone head first
Go
Familia!
Wait...when did TdA turn into a hitter?
Seems like no. If he could bat he would have been up instead of Rivera?Bruce, I assume
Nice
I'm more worried about the Pirates

I think Reyes just plays at a different level with the spotlight in NY. He hasn't looked this good in a while
