We'll be doing one each month for the rest of the season. It'll be easier to consolidate info this way and for everyone to be able to follow along any news and information centering around the club's various affiliates.

The rain there has just stopped and the tarp is coming off the field.
Baty getting it done again!  
BocaGene : 4/11/2024 1:13 pm : link
After two swings and misses, goes oppo and drives in Marte.

Mets score 1 in first....61% chance of winning.
Baty goes oppo  
Rob in Rockaway : 4/11/2024 1:14 pm : link
for the 2 strike 2 out RBI. Good to see. Marte showed some wheels scoring from second as well. Also good to see.
Nice to remember

D not helping out their pitcher.

3-0 Metsies
Lindor will eventually break out of his slump  
JayBinQueens : 4/11/2024 1:30 pm : link
but if you're not hitting, you need to bust your ass out of the box and not trot down to first on what played like a swinging bunt
tacking on and taking advantage of bad atlanta D  
Eric on Li : 4/11/2024 1:43 pm : link
what game am i watching?



(looks like dj stewart still sucks though)
a well rested Alvarez  
KDavies : 4/11/2024 1:43 pm : link
comes through! Alonso with two hits. Get JD back and Lindor going and the offense should be humming along.
mcneil hitting 7th before JDM even arrives  
Eric on Li : 4/11/2024 1:45 pm : link
if these guys just play anywhere near their norms with baty/alvarez hitting well this is a very good lineup.
Even McNeil

he is, though they are still scheduled to face 3 lefties in the next 5 games and 4 in the next 9.

seems unlike JDM is ready before then, even if it's a short-lived call up seems like an obvious time to give Vientos a shot or else we are going to see a good helping of short/wendle (even if they want to rest alonso at DH once or twice).

I still don't buy it. Ohtani has to be as dumb as a box of rocks for this to be true.

by Batty. Seems like an every game occurrence at this point

Mike Trout was compared to Mickey Mantle early in his career, yesterday he played his 1,500th game and the comparison stacks up from a statistical perspective (pictured: each player through 1,500 games)

Here’s how Seth Lugo has fared as a starter since 2023:

29 GS, 165.0 IP, 157 H, 41 BB, 149 SO
3.33 ERA, 124 ERA+, 3.2 fWAR

How many millions of career earnings did Lugo lose due to the Mets incorrectly using him as a reliever? How many WAR did it cost the Mets?

Think of the 2019 Mets who used Lugo out of the pen but let guys like Flexen, Gsellmen, Vargas, Corey Oswalt, etc. That team went 46-26 in the second half and barely missed the playoffs. Another 50-60 innings from Lugo (subbing for the below replacement value spot starters they often used in games) could've made the difference between a playoff berth or not. That Mets team would've been dangerous in the playoffs with prime Degrom (as well as Wheeler, Stroman and Lugo) in the rotation.

It sure does appear whoever decided Lugo "couldn't/shouldn't" start was badly mistaken. Reportedly, as many as 6 teams made Lugo an offer to start last season which means at least 6 other teams thought it was worth exploring.

Teheran received a reported 150K signing bonus from Baltimore and 54,000 for 1 start with the Mets. 200K for 2.2 MLB innings. Must be nice! Zack Scott's assumption he had a prearranged deal to go to AAA if he cleared was obviously incorrect.
jackass Braves finally play Guillorme
