You know you are a bust  
giantsFC : 5/23/2018 7:57 pm : link
When you batting below the guy recently called up and only in front of the pitcher.

Wasn’t Rosario supposed to be the next Reyes? He looks serviceable but not much else. I haven’t been this disappointed since

The last can’t miss prospect of Mets failed and the one before that and the one before that.
Wait he is batting behind the pitcher  
giantsFC : 5/23/2018 7:59 pm : link
Even more amazin
Conforto is brutal  
Vanzetti : 5/23/2018 8:04 pm : link
Don’t know if it is the injury or that he is just prone to these slumps but he is killing the team right now
So with all the analytics and what not  
ChaChing : 5/23/2018 8:05 pm : link
and even if it's not 'easy'

Why the hell don't all teams bunt for a hit against the shift? Saw the Mets do it a few times, then iirc last night it was Conforto who didn't take what's given

That is driving me nuts. Millions of $ in pay, yet tons of minds are missing the obvious easy play? Make the other team think about it if not stop shifting against you...seems an easy call. Moreso when guys are slumping - like almost all the Mets right now
Degrom is so good and fun to watch  
JayBinQueens : 5/23/2018 8:33 pm : link
Need to get a couple of runs for him
Nimmoooo  
JayBinQueens : 5/23/2018 8:37 pm : link
Should be 2 but we'll take the lead

Impatience is how a team like the yankees gets Didi Gregorious for nothing.
Trade Conforto for Realmuto  
Vanzetti : 5/23/2018 8:54 pm : link
Rosario for Machado.

Degrom and Thor are too good to waste their primes.

Nimmo should play daily  
spike : 5/23/2018 9:04 pm : link
even over Bruce.
Nimmo is easy to root for  
steve in ky : 5/23/2018 9:19 pm : link
.
Nimmo has definitely earned his chance  
Eric on Li : 5/23/2018 9:22 pm : link
it's really odd that Bruce was the first move they felt the need to make in the offseason.
It's great having Lugo and Gsellman in middle relief  
Ira : 5/23/2018 9:24 pm : link

It's nice to see a Mets pitcher able to battle through  
steve in ky : 5/23/2018 9:25 pm : link
not having his best stuff and still able to put up zeros. The good ones do that.

Doesn’t make sense to sign a DH to a 3 year deal. Nimmo should play over Bruce if Cespedes ever comes back.
It was looking like he was going to get more time at 1st  
steve in ky : 5/23/2018 9:30 pm : link
before the injuries struck. I'm sure they will re-visit Bruce getting more time at 1st when the situation dictates it.
nice play by AGon  
Eric on Li : 5/23/2018 9:37 pm : link
he's clearly not what he was offensively but he's been good on D and has had a few big hits. Good cheap placeholder for now.
always prado

that guy is such a pain in the ass.
Familia bout to

Blow it
How many times  
Mike in NY : 5/23/2018 9:46 pm : link
Will bullpen blow it for deGrom?
Bitch ass  
Rflairr : 5/23/2018 9:46 pm : link
Blows the game
Familia is garbage  
Vanzetti : 5/23/2018 9:47 pm : link
4 blown saves and it's only May

Calling him Benitez is an insult to Benitez
this freaking team  
Eric on Li : 5/23/2018 9:47 pm : link
is the worst.
I feel for Jake ...  
Stufftherun : 5/23/2018 9:49 pm : link
hell I feel for any of our SP that must know they've got to throw shutout ball each time out and even that doesn't guarantee anything.
Familia doing what he does best

Lineup is unwatchable. I switch the channel when Mets are up
If I was Degrom I'd be pissing in Familia's locker  
Rob in Rockaway : 5/23/2018 9:53 pm : link
right now.
Familia terrible  
spike : 5/23/2018 9:53 pm : link
but what a pathetic offensive showing by the Mets.
just one home run by Nimmo from being shut out.
We should've kept  
spike : 5/23/2018 9:54 pm : link
Harvey as our closer.
Reyes better not get himself thrown out  
steve in ky : 5/23/2018 9:54 pm : link
.
DeGrom would probably have at least 15+ more career wins  
moespree : 5/23/2018 9:55 pm : link
If he was part of a better franchise. An utterly unwatchable lineup, injuries, problems that everyone except Sandy knew would be coming, nothing from 3/5 of the rotation, inconsistent closer. On and on and on it goes every year.

says "Degrom defeated Marlines 1-0"

JINX!
Wilmer has been Mr Clutch in these spots  
steve in ky : 5/23/2018 9:56 pm : link
lets see if he can do it again
Sigh

slumping Conforto and Bruce  
spike : 5/23/2018 10:00 pm : link
and an injured Cespedes mean no offense.

The rest just hasn't developed as offensive players. Vegas is useless.

Or maybe Conforto is just not that good and maybe Bruce is washed up.
I like Conforto as most probably do  
steve in ky : 5/23/2018 10:07 pm : link
But he is far from a proven commodity. At some point he needs to get to where everyone believes he can be as a player.

He probably needs a week or two in Las Vegas or Binghamton to rediscover himself.

Still not sure what anyone sees in this team or why anyone would think they're winning 90 games or heading to the postseason.

We've now lost series' to both of the worst teams in the entire NL and its still May.

Familia blew it last night but managing 1 fucking run against the Marlins is absolutely pathetic. The lineup is a joke. We can't score and are plummeting to the bottom of the majors in run production.

Sandy Alderson doesn't seem to understand how to construct a major league lineup. If he did, we'd have produced an above average scoring offense at some point in the last 5 years.

I'm so fucking tired of this team. Every single time they create a smidge of goodwill, they turn around and find a way to erase it immediately.
