Get one final shot at 3B. Part of me wants TJ Rivera to get some consistent atbats there and heat up like we know he can. Part of me thinks Reyes is better than Cabrera at SS. Part of me wants to see Rosario at SS. What to do what to do.... 5 candidates for 2 spots.
All these early injuries to the positional players have been a boon

Cabrera should be the odd man out, and it couldn't be more obvious and easy of a decision. Which means that when he returns from injury he will go right back to starting.
Reyes is better at SS than Cabrera and looks like he might be getting back on track with the hitting. But Reyes is still going to be worse offensively than TJ and Wilmer. It hurts to have Reyes and Cabrera in the lineup at the same time. Duda too. Too many dead spots.
Rivera and Wilmer are exactly what this team needs and it's no coincidence that the offense has been clicking with both getting consistent playing time. It's nice not having to rely on the HR for wins.

Agree 100%. What's worse is Cabrera really looks like a liability at SS this year too. But you are right... I can almost promise Cabrera is getting his starting spot over everyone when he comes back in a day or two. lol.
Is there a team who is any worse at pitchers bunting than the Mets?

Agreed Cabrera is going to start and he shouldn't.
Well, you can't hurt the fragile egos of your ancient veterans
Wilmer at 2nd? It won't be the best defensive IF but not really any worse than what we have now (which isn't awful anyway). At least that IF would hit.

Yeah if it were me I'd probably do something similar. I'd have TJ at 3B by a hair over Flores (I think he's slightly better defensively). I'd have Reyes at SS over Cabrera until after Super 2 in which I'd probably go to Rosario. 2B is tough because Walker is actually having a pretty hot May. Hmmm.
of the new "run off" vote after everyone is selected without being written in. Still shitty IMO.
He will go in as the 25th man or an injury replacement.
Yeah... Probably. It's still lame. If he was just on the normal ballot, casual fans look up his stats and he's probably one of the top 3-5 vote getters overall and in the running for a starter.
Or do you think that he overachieved last year and this is what he is? After all he never tore up the minors and he wasn't even a top 10 prospect in '15

I think he overachieved last year and has underachieved this year. Add it up and I think he'll be a good 5th starter, maybe even more in time.
He's iiight if everything is clicking but he's pretty much the quintessential middle relief vet type that's easily replaceable. I'd rather go with younger upside options.
He is now a full time player who can hit against the righties and lefties!

5th inning called and Gsellman wanted to stop pitching
as soon as Matz and Lugo return, we will see gsellman and Montero go down
deGrom
Matz
Wheeler
Harvey
Gsellman
Lugo replaces Montero as the long man in the pen.
That would upgrade things significantly IMO.
In a close game, the least clutch Met I can remember
good to see because Mets are going to need him and Seward to carry more of the load than you would normally expect

Neil Ramirez omg
Reed
Sewald
Blevins
Robles
Smoker
Edgin
Lugo
If Robles and Smoker give up home runs so be it. I'd rather go down with those guys than a bunch of older vets.
