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.
I think this might be his third start. Guillorme would offer more defensively at SS, but can't hit. Cecchini has defensive issues at SS so really is not ideal if Rosario needs a night off.
Been an uneven start to the season for him and the first was more of the same.
Disconcerting.
With a 20 mph wind blowing in from right field no reason to worry about LH hitting it out. More high fastballs
DL him just to be safe.
Have a day, Brandon Nimmo. Current #Statcast status âž¡ï¸
Leadoff hit: 103.3 mph exit velo, 29.8 ft/sec sprint speed.
Scoring from 2nd: 28.4 ft/sec SS.
Triple: 103.8 mph, 400-foot #barrel, 28.6 ft/sec SS. #Mets
29.8 FT/S is very very good.

He should learn to bunt for basehits
He has to be more economical.
Maybe they shouldve pinched hit for him last inning.
Reyes is the 25th man and tutor for Rosario and friend for Cespedes.
Now he can sit back down for a week
nice ft/sec sprint speed on that.
With his size, he should be able to hit for more power than he was shown so far

Where do Bruce, Cespedes, Conforto , and Smith/Alonso play?
Conforto
Cespedes
Machado
Flores
Smith/Alonzo
Rosario
Plawecki/Nido
Lagares? Not sure he's enough to get a catcher.
and they're not going to deal Bruce IMO.
Not sure who else, but Lagares seems the ideal candidate, but technically that just makes Nimmo the 4th OFer, need to get him in the every day lineup. and not just saying this off today's performance, many people felt this way.

Bruce and Cespedes only have 2 more years left. Maybe you go with a 4 man OF rotation for one more year than trade Bruce or Cespedes. Nimmo isnt doomed to ride the bench forever and Im going to go out on a limb and say everyone wont stay healthy forever making it moot anyway.

Nimmo is already the 4th OF. Lagares only plays against lefties or comes in late for defense.

Either way, my point is dealing Lagares doesn't necessarily free up playing time for Nimmo.
Bruce might be the only one they move that can do that and it's more natural I think having Nimmo in CF and Conforto in RF.
but I doubt they trade Bruce.
not sure what they can do

I dont think it's the end of the world to have a real rotation. Give Bruce, Cespedes, Conforto, and AGone each one day off a week. If Nimmo is getting 4 starts plus is the first guy off the bench as a pinch hitter I think he will be fine. For some reason we arent doing that with him yet though.
