The streak is over. Let's win this series and gear up for the Nats again. I actually love the lineup today. We need to keep our bench involved. Shitty weather again, unfortunately.
Agrred. Not a youngster anymore. Same for Bruce.
Agree. I rest everyone one day a week. Everyone thinks they are playing the Show and wants to see the A+ lineup every day but its a long season. Keep the bench involved and keep the regulars rested and fresh.
Especially for a team built on pitching
But us Mets fans always have to find something
Come on, man. You really think all is fine on the offensive side of the ball? Teams can't live an entire season on these types of wins. I love what we've been able to do but the worm is going to turn at some point if the offense can't get it going. And I'm sure they will. But it's not just something to bitch at.
I'm not worried about Ces at all. He'll break out soon.
Yesterday it was clear that offensively Nimmo (bench) and Flores (bench) won the game.
May not happen that way every day that they get bench contributions, but I can't remember a deeper bench on a Mets team. '86?

Brandon Nimmo showed off his wheels on the basepaths yesterday, reaching a season-high 29.8 ft/sec, per Statcast. That's elite speed. To give you some perspective, Amed Rosario ranked fifth in baseball last year with an average max-effort sprint speed of 29.5 ft/sec.
He actually has good sense/speed when underway, but he really does not have that good first few steps that base stealers have
If Ces is still striking out more than anyone else in baseball when the temps get into the 70's, I'll be concerned.
Knock on wood, but he's in a good place both physically and mentally. If this team is to be playing in October, he will have to be a big part of it.
So far so good.
Both Phi and Atl have arrived earlier than expected.
Kapler has done a fine job after looking terrible the first couple pf days
Z lets also give credit where credit is due
Ces is also been showing that 5th skillset he has gunning down runners from the outfield to the basepaths.
The power will come soon, it always does. Just keep the guys hammys fresh.
