We’re trying something a bit different with the threads starting with this series. Instead of a thread per game, we’re going to try a thread per series due to their being less activity on the daily threads—which is totally understandable since the team is in a tailspin and doesn’t look to be going out of it anytime soon. Let’s see how it goes.
It was suggested we try it this way and we agreed upon it yesterday after we voted on it. If it’s not popular, we can always go back to doing it the old way. Please share your opinion about this change after this series is over on this thread. It won’t be much different. Lineups and starting pitcher matchup graphics will still be posted for each game as before, just consolidated into a single thread. Anywho, let’s give it a swing—and unlike the Mets, hopefully it’ll work! 😂

-The Mets suffered their 6th loss yesterday when leading after 8 innings since May 1st. As of the end of yesterday afternoon’s game, no other team has more than two. Additionally, the Mets are 24-35 & in 4th place in the N.L. East. They’re 3.5 games behind the 3rd place Nats, who they’re playing for the first time this season tonight in the first game of a three-game set. They’re dangerous when it comes to stealing bases, so that’s something to take note of.

Death by a thousand stolen bases. Professor X could steal abase offa the Mets' catchers.
last year obviously a big difference was marte but he's been good this year. mcneil obviously not close to what he was in 2022 so that's a loss but bader has probably been better than canha and JDM is better than anyone they had hitting 5th in 2022. strange that they havent been able to come anywhere close being as cohesive of a lineup.
he will cool off and the k rate will almost certainly go up at some point, but the power is legit and he has always been a .280+ hitter so i dont think he will be all or nothing. he has never been overly passive either, i think he's a pretty natural hitter for a guy with that kind of power.
i think better version of JDD/Duda is close to a lock at this point. the defense at 3b seems clearly better than JDD ever was. unlike those 2 i think he could end up a more consistent 30/90 type who hits ~.250. with DH/3b/1b flex and a good platoon split against lefties that's a nice piece.

He’s a clear fit for given where this roster will be over next couple seasons. Obviously if the K rate escalates and the D is just not feasible it will be a no brainer if he has to be only a DH and prices out some time or point later.
And of course now Megill serves up a meatball pitch to .150 BA Joey Gallo.
he has looked normal in a good way. on some hard hit balls that would have been web gem types he's been close. he has a strong arm.
as a counter example jdd never looked comfortable whereas so far this year vientos has looked reasonably natural. he's a big guy with athletic limitations but so far he has made all the plays he's supposed to make (he's actually +1 OAA heading into today).
Anyways…Vientos is a stud that some of us saw while the FO did not. Sure, he’ll come back down to earth a bit (or maybe not?) but it’s nice to see him size the moment. And Baty…I refuse to believe that he’s not a quality MLB bat. The kid can hit and they need to help him click in the pros. These are the two players that really excite me going forward.

Or you dump Alonso and play him at 1B
Anyone know why he was out of baseball last year? And only the Mets were interested in giving him another shot?
Breath of fresh air (yea, real small sample size) after watching McNeil hit into a million 4-3's on the second pitch of the AB.
He sucks
7.01 ERA
Ottavino has been horrid.
Hate to say it, but yesterday's game was a big loss....could have been 4-1 in their last five with even a suggestion of some positive juice.
What's up with Diaz? Is he hurt, or Billy Eppler hurt?
They sure miss him, or the 2022 version anyhow.
diekman fine vs tough lefties but otto in high leverage (esp b2b) has been problematic.
I think if he can piece this together, the fastball is strong, he has #3 upside. I'm buying Megill right now as a meaningful part of this future rotation.
As for Vientos, I'm absolutely loving this opportunity for him to get an extended run. I believe this guy is a big time power hitter that's going to generate a lot of production.
Baty has had a lot of leash, I still see potential there but tbh I'm not optimistic he will be a consistent performer, but I hope he figures it out.

a bright spot in a lousy season. Unfortunately not in the local viewing area, so haven't been able to see him too much on defense. How has he been defensively at 3B? 0 errors obviously a good sign

Thanks! That is encouraging. Whether it is at 3B, 1B, or DH (or a combo), Vientos seems to be cementing himself in the future of the team, which is very nice.
If Alonso is traded (or leaves in FA), certainly lessens the blow there.
If Alonso is traded (or leaves in FA), certainly lessens the blow there.
100%. If Alonso walks, Vientos is your 1b and Mauricio/Baty can compete for 3b. Acuna/Jett eventually phase in at 2b/Cf.
then a ton of $ freed up for Soto and the DH spot freed up for a good/cheaper solution just like they found JDM. problem with that plan is im pessimistic on Soto leaving NYY. just cant see them dropping the ball on that a year after having missed on yamamoto.
so i think it's hard to envision a better overall player than alonso being attainable. which means id start getting comfortable with vientos in a mixed role, and baty some reps in LF to hopefully take the DJ Stewart roster spot in a few weeks.
btw here's an interesting vientos observation, his numbers right now are almost exactly the same as his AAA numbers last year in terms of walk rate/k rate/iso. beyond the exit velo one of the things that has always stood out to me is that year over year he has always made incremental improvements. i still expect regression in the babip and k-rate as pitchers adjust, but as i said above he is obviously an MLB power hitter and more and more im becoming convinced he can at least be an average MLB hitter on top of that.
Looking at free agency, and yeah, pickings are thin for hitting. Agreed it may be best to just re-sign Alonso. Otherwise, most interesting bats besides Soto appear to be O'Neill, JD Martinez, Adames, Bregman, Gleyber, Goldschmidt, Hoskins.
Should have a lot of options. If Alonso is gone, obviously Vientos to 1B. If he stays, Alonso, Vientos, and Baty can hold down 1b/DH/3B (obviously with Alonso not playing 3B and Baty not at 1B), with Alvarez DHing some to rest him (likely bench Baty on those days). Mauricio can compete at 2B with McNeil. McNeil can always play OF
he is still making contact decently and not k'ing, maybe he just needs the elbow surgery or something from that partial tear, but the defensive regression leads me to believe he's just hitting his expiration date faster than expected like marte.

I think the Mets have a legit shot at Soto. I don't think there's any way he's not hitting free agency. And then it's Cohen vs Steinbrenner, the latter of whom recently said that the payroll is unsustainable. They have big money long-term on Judge, Stanton, Cole, and Rodon tied up. They certainly have the ability to sign him and I think they'll make a play, but I can see Cohen just offering more. And the rumors have been that Soto wants to play for the Mets.
I still think that the smart money is on the Yankees, but I think it's fairly close...I'd put it at 60-40 odds or so.

agreed re Soto being a pipedream. Even with the money, I think it's going to be hard to pry a hitter like that away from the Yankees. It would be colossal disaster for the Yankees to lose perhaps the best hitter in the game in his prime crosstown.

dont see him choosing mets if they aren't at least .500 and in contention for a WC. he is going to have options just like ohtani had 3 or 4 teams willing to pay the freight and how LAD matched on yamamoto.
His best chance is to hit the weights and alter his approach to generate more power and harder hit balls. The hope would be that he'll be able to retain enough of his contact ability to still be viable despite changing things up. Chance that it doesn't work. but there's also a chance he's out of baseball by 34 if he doesn't change things up and continues like he currently is playing for rest of 2024 and during 2025.
Duly noted. A lot of good convos/chats get lost in the weeds when we do daily threads. They won't this way. I'll post today's lineups and starting pitcher matchups in this thread in about two hours just the same way as before. After tomorrow's series finale we can take another pole at how this worked out.

Now let's go get one.
McGill in the BP would be better, imo. Peterson always teases. Hope he can string a few good starts together
Props to Vientos too btw. Excellent defensive play in the 6th and good challenge. Kid's thriving at the plate and in the field. Mets are gonna have a nice problem between him and Baty down the line.
they have to get baty some OF time. that could/should be his spot in a couple weeks. can start twice a week for marte, once or twice a week for vientos at 3b whenever he spells alonso or jdm.

Here's the rest of his pitching line tonight:
5 H
2 R
2 ER
2 BB
2 K
0 HR
3.09 ERA
28 Batters faced
2 HBP
Mets play better without angry douche complaining McNeil. I’m sticking to my never liking him and his “grit”
Alonso, it’s like you want him to return but only at a sub 3 yesr deal at low end. No way a team pays him a lot.
Lindor, I’m saying it now may age into his contract as a value if he can stay healthy every year. In 5 years SS contract values will all be his price or more.
Soto 2025.
Also his constant temper tantrums are annoying to me as well.
Wouldn't that be nice....we've been waiting long enough, especially with Peterson.
After she brightens my day, I go to MLB.com and check their highlight package. Vientos is becoming another day-brightener. That was some throw across the diamond, from his knees.
Peterson 'throws grounders' and that's his calling card. Let him start on rotation.
1. the defense has gone off a cliff and
2. his max exit velocity, which is presumably the best hit ball he's hit all year, is 6 mph lower than his best hit ball last year and the best hit balls he's hit in all his prior years.
he has clearly trended negatively in the power department and yet he is hitting more balls in the air. seems like a bad combination. hard to not think the elbow may be a bigger issue than they expected.
his k-rate is still great and he is still squaring balls up so there is some hope he can still hit for a high average if he can get back to more line drives. k-rate and squaring balls up correlate somewhat predictively with BA. also his avg. ev is same as it ever was.
And I don’t want to crow too early, but it looks like we’ve found our everyday 3B.
agreed, the good thing is that he has the versatility that if he becomes a part time player in multiple positions he can still have value if he can hit even with less power. he may just need to trend more towards being a platoon option. no huge split this year but over his career he was about 10% better vs righties.
Knee "issue".
Yeah, saw that one. Good stuff, particularly with Baty struggling. I had almost written Vientos off as a 3B. I really need to stop believing minor league defensive scouting reports (Alonso, Alvarez, Vientos)

he came into today +1 OAA, neutral DRS. i think we may be getting close to a point where his odds of being the 3b going forward are flipping to for from against.

it's definitely the skill that can be most variable. even someone like JDD was terrible defensively as a met, but did get a lot better in SF at least for 1 year last year.
it's just very variable in general i suppose if you think about how quickly marte and mcneil have fallen off.
not sure what weather report looks like, but sounds like not good?

now and 5, 40% chance of rain. 6 & 7 looks like no rain. 8 50% chance again. Could be a window, but who knows.

Has he figured out that there's no fighting in baseball? He's prepared to fuck up guys who don't fight. I'd love to see the tough guy in an MMA ring.
Well, he's a career .226 hitter with 19 total home runs before today. He seems to have a good arm.

I want him back next year with the Mets. He's showing that he's part of the solution, not the problem. Mets are gonna have at least three kids in the rotation between next year and into 2026 (e.g., Scott, Tidwell, and Sproat). Severino would be a nice veteran to be mix in with that group.
I think so! I'll take this as a vote for "Yes, let's continue!", lol.

Jose Iglesias is making me even less excited about Jeff McNeil's contract. I mean, Iglesias can play it seems and has a MLB track record to suggest this isn't a DJ Stewart fluke-ish few games...

After a series sweep in the first series thread, is this even a question? Series threads, only, please! Thanks for doing these Optimus.
I'll cast my ballot right now in early Primary Voting -- Series Thread.
What exactly is Severino's Contract status ?? I want to keep him as long as possible as a bridge to the Young Guns.

FA after the year.
Wouldn't mind going fwd with Senga, Sevy, Scott, Butto, Peterson, Tidwell, Sproat.
fyi in the last few drafts that would mean a player like:
Ewing (2023 round 4 $675k)
Tong (2022 round 7 $226k)
Scott (2021 round 5 $350k)
signing 1 year free agents who perform well enough that you can qualify them the following offseason is great business. Ewing was the comp pick for losing Bassitt, and at this point he is likely a better prospect than anyone they gave up for Bassitt (Ginn is 25 w/ a 4.5 era in AAA, ranked #15 in OAK system).
Didn't the Mets sweep the Pirates earlier this season?
Either way, it doesn't happen often.

I didn't even think of the QO strategy. What would be his draft compensation if he was to sign elsewhere?
Would that beat mid season trade to a surging contender who needs pitching at the ASB?
so bottom line it would take a really good return for me to move Severino if i liked him enough to give him QO.
separately mayer just posted this, which is pretty interesting. I dont think lindor is the only variable here (vientos became starting 3b, JDM is healthy, alonso moved to #2, etc) but i think the takeaway is that this offense can be really good when they get alvarez back and he can outproduce whatever fall off we inevitably see from vientos.

Mets offense before switching Francisco Lindor to leadoff:
.232/.304/.362, 97 wRC+ (19th)
Mets offense since switching Francisco Lindor to leadoff:
.265/.329/.461, 128 wRC+ (2nd)
The more often, the better. Sick of him.
short had 1 hits and 2 runs scored in 10 games.
short had 1 hits and 2 runs scored in 10 games.
Solid hitter, though with very little power/speed. Hit .292 in '22. I assume he was injured last year, as he only had 28 AAA games (and hit .317). Good backup IF. Ideally, you'd have a better starter at 2B, but ride the hot streak.
acuna has cooled in terms of results, but under hood he is still playing better than earlier. not sure the hh% but i know he has had at least 1-2 every game and of those 23 only 2 k's (and 3 walks). so basically 7.5% k's, 11.5% walks, and 81% batted balls (21).
think that means 3/21 = .142 babip over the mini-slump, so there's some bad luck mixed in.
i agree iglesias probably has at least the rest of june or so and acuna is going to need to continue making good contact and showing progression before being ready for a call up.
Stewart's roster spot may be the easier one for someone at AAA to grab than Iglesias', if I were Baty i'd be volunteering to shag balls in LF.

That he is. Posted a .901 OPS with the Dodgers in 2022
if they can be close to or at .500 entering this stretch, they will likely get themselves over .500 entering the ASB.
that's bad timing.
