Worst lineup in recent memory. Todd Frazier in the three-hole, lol. Well, honestly not much worse than Cano. Hopefully, we finish up the 4-game sweep!
Both McNeil and Cano to IL. So Mets-like to finally have Cano out of the lineup for an extended stretch and McNeil goes on IL as well so he can't replace him at 2B. The Cespedes stuff, the Lowrie re-injuries and setbacks...what is it with this team?
BP being an abbreviation for Bullpen and Batting Practice is especially applicable in the case of the 2019 Nationals.
OF Stanton
OF Conforto
OF Judge
DH Cespedes
3B Adjubar
2B McNeil
SS Didi
1B Lowrie
C (reserved)
SP Sevorino
SP Paxton
SP Sabathia
Mop-up man: Cano
Not a bad squad.
The entire roster construction this offseason didn't make much sense. Painfully thin in some areas, with redundancy in others. It's almost as if they hire a GM who had zero experience building a team....
Gameplan is for Matz to mow these guys down and live up to the potential he has teased us with.

Think they built this team with anticipation of the DH coming to the NL. Didn't happen.... yet

Good, by the time the NL does implement the DH, Lowrie might actually be healthy enough to play.
Which means with the 12th pick we will go overslot with the third best pitcher out of the PAC-12?
I know we can say Alonso might set all kinds of Mets HR records, but I want that 20 year old who lights up the minors and is in the show before he can legally drink a beer.
Agreed on Lagares. He's playing like a legit 4th OF on a contending team.

Would love to have a hyped stud like that. Always so much fun as a fan to follow. Closest we've had was on the pitching end with Harvey and Thor. Can't remember a hitter we've ever had with that type of hype/upside. Reyes and Wright were pretty big prospects but not that level.

How has Matz been bad? We give deGrom a ton of credit for pitching out of trouble all the time and not Matz today? To me, he's been VERY good. Gotten double plays when he needed them, and big strikeouts when he needed them. Now the only run scored was on an error.

We have claimed outfielder Aaron Altherr off waivers from San Francisco and designated Tim Peterson for assignment. #Mets
The college arms suck, but I think there could be some surprises from the HS ranks especially picking at 12
I agree. I've been pretty critical of Matz for melting down when the going got tough, but he's shown real grit today.

Kid has some upside even if he's stunk for a little while. Might as well give him some run here while everyone is hurt.
What a fucking joke
Can someone tell me why Mickey left Dora the Explorer (as my young son calls him) in the game?
What a fucking joke
Metnut, unsure if you saw the NY post article today, but the day Cano went on the IL, Kelenic hit his 8th HR in A ball.
I believe it would be 3rd time in 4 days for Diaz as well. Gsellman threw all of 7 pitches yesterday.

for Diaz and can't get even ask him to use 4 outs. What's the point in giving up Kelenic and taking on all the Cano dead money if he's just a one inning guy?
What a fucking joke

Kid is a stud. We need to use Diaz in situations like today to get max value out of him. He was off yesterday. Asking an extra out isn't too much. Especially 2nd and 3rd and 2 out in a 1 run game! Doesn't get any bigger than that!
Our manager is a buffoon.
Because they may want to keep Dom in for defense at 1B and pitcher would slot into Alonso's spot and they are down to Guillorme and Nido on the bench so unless you PR with a pitcher you are taking away a potential PH in extra innings.
lets go mets
