Dont like sitting Davis tonight but whatever. Mets 3.5 back. Just win! LFGM!
But the splits are hugely different, and w/ framing & pitch calls it's legit a thing. Also JDG was given Nido for most of the tail of his CY Young run (ironically BVW advised JDG to insist as much lol). No doubt pros gotta man up, but that double std negatively effecting his results plus trade rumors every year...

I know I’m probably crazy but whatever.
Still was a good effort just didn't work out...or so I think anyway
3-1 NYM
Diaz
Matthew Allan threw 3 scoreless innings with 0 hits, 0 BB's and 2K's following Nathan Jones who pitched ok too (3 IP, 1ER, 3BB, 1K).
Jake Mangum 2 for 3.
Mets minors summer season is officially wrapped.
I'm not holding my breath, nor think it's pretty if they do sneak in but...

Initial returns on Allan look like we were smart to tank Rounds 4-10 to fit him under budget. Now watch us trade him for some has been.

Yep, so far, hopefully he stays healthy next year and plays full-season.
It pisses me off to look at the minors in general and see how strong the system could have been if BVW wasn't clueless.
People sometimes call it prospect hugging, but the players you get from the farm system to contribute have a ripple effect on your whole roster, and the better those players pan out, the bigger the ripple.
at least if you trade them to improve the major league team, which I support, you better actually improve the major league team or you are doing more damage than good - like is the case here.
Baez out for Cubs.
Yelich now out for Brewers.
Within a game of Philly and DBacks.
Again, no expectations but fun to still be hanging around this thing.
Also, I think we can start to keep an eye on the Nats. Not playing great, brutal schedule and known to be choke artists. They have 2 more with Minnesota, then the Braves, then the Cardinals.
Keep winning games and survive these 5 days and they'll have a punchers shot at this.

The two worst pitchers in MLB this season by Win Probability Added? Jeurys Familia (-2.30) and Edwin Diaz (-2.16). Nobody else is below -2. It is as bad as it feels.

We all know Mets have thrown away a ton of games because of poor bullpen usage and other issues that should not happen.
But at this point, you have to let that go and just enjoy that they are in it.
Also, other than Wheelz all the key players are back next year. So this team is at the beginning of what should be a good tun

Exactly. It’s astonishing to me how people can’t identify how young and talented this roster is. And it’s not just the rotation anymore. We have a huge nucleus of position players to grow off of. Having major league ready prospects “close” would be nice but it’s not crucial at the moment. And even Diaz in the pen is still extremely young and talented and could bounce back next year and grow with these guys. Hoping we bring back Wheeler too. I think we lucked out with the juiced balls this year and might be able to get him on a friendly 4 year deal.
