Travis dArnaud C
Keon Broxton - LF

Wow. Definitely one of the best chances the Braves are going to have at a win against us, maybe ever. lol. A Vargas start and Nimmo, Cano, and Ramos all out tonight. Broxton, Lagares, TDA, and JD Davis all in the same lineup. Oh well. I feel like tonight is house money anyway with deGrom going tomorrow. LGM!!
He could be your future ace.

Is looking great tonight.

Hes got the stuff but hes got a long way to go. Snitker will probably keep him in the pen though and continue to ride the struggling vet instead.
Large mass does not sound good. Jeez.

Does Vargas get another start, or do they pull the plug?
Well, his next start is an off day so they probably skip him. I think it was his last start. That was really bad and BVW wont mess around. He'll make a switch.
Ken Tosenthal said hes out of rotation
Keeps all 4 backend relievers in play so you're really not hurting anything. Trade for another middle reliever and you're fine in the pen. Worth a shot.
Mets are still in first and in a pretty good position to take 3 of 4 in this series with deGrom going tomorrow.
Im actually still pretty impressed at the amount of runs we were able to score and tack on this one in spite of the mess Vargas/Oswalt created. Get em tomorrow.

How would that tax the pen? It might weaken it but it certainly woundnt tax it.
Lugo was moved to the pen for a reason. He's not a starter. Better than Vargas? Maybe. Better than Keuchel? Unlikely.
if the mets were going to sign only one of Keuchel or Kimbrel I think Keuchel makes more sense.
Likely, they sign neither.

Essentially Mets don't view any depth pieces as an upgrade.
And it's still status quo with Keuchel, per a source. Sides not close.
I have both on my Keeper League team and my NA spot is accounted for :(
I don't mind if the Braves win when those two start as long as they lose every other day.

I had no problem giving him a chance based on his second half last year but I also have no problem moving on. Two games in he cant locate and looks like a mess. This is a competitive year IMO so move on. My bigger point was always that on this staff, a 5th starter isnt a huge concern and we should be able to tweak and acquire somebody else pretty cheap regardless imo.
Such a joke. We gave up nothing. Davis is just barely passed being a legit prospect himself.
The team that signs Keuchel cannot give a qualifying offer, so theres no compensation next offseason.
What is he 5 7? Please. Hes far away. I would have been more annoyed if we gave up Newton but we are talking about acquiring a guy with huge power potential ready now.
Stuck here listening to rambling crap w hank Aaron.
Also, not being helped out by his fielders.
and of course the BP
so here we go

Not all of us.
If I wanted to hear a ted talk w Aaron id Go to one. When the screen for the game is 1/3 size of the Boring media room w him in it, AND they arent even telling you play-by-play, yeah screw that espn crap
