Have 0 faith in Peterson. Hopefully bats can start producing.
Mets have money in the bank IMO  
ZGiants98 : 4/14/2021 6:32 pm : link
after sweeping yesterday. Im totally fine with an L today and deGrom going tomorrow afternoon.

That said, I think this could be a fun one. Most likely, Wheeler dominates and we have to squeak across runs late if we want to have any chance....

But a lot of these guys spent a lot of time with Wheeler in BP, etc. I just have a sense this is gonna be a bit of a sparring/fun match...

Never be 'fine' with an L. Let's kick their ass with Peterson and go for the sweep with JDG tomorrow!
Nice Pete quote  
JB_in_DC : 4/14/2021 6:56 pm : link
"Being booed at Philly? It was awesome...I missed the boos honestly sometimes, too," Alonso said. "It's fun. I really miss the energy and the liveliness that the game can bring...I'm really thankful for it."

I hear ya but it's early in the season. We are in first place. Its a long year. 3 of 4 from the Phillies right now is perfectly fine so long as deGrom can take Thursday's game. Obviously, tonight's matchup is a mismatch. But of course Im rooting for a W tonight too.
JD Davis fine  
ZGiants98 : 4/14/2021 6:59 pm : link
Should be activated this weekend when he's eligible.
Wheels is going to be hyped up  
larryflower37 : 4/14/2021 7:11 pm : link
Hopefully he is pressing and we can get to him early.
Never know what you get with Peterson but the bullpen is over worked already, this could be ugly.

For the betting crew over 8 looks good tonight.
Mets bats woke up  
KDavies : 4/14/2021 7:29 pm : link
3 straight singles to open the game. 2-0
Nimmo  
pjcas18 : 4/14/2021 7:33 pm : link
is a machine, people talk about the Mets "best hitters" and mention Lindor, Alonso, sometimes Smith or McNeil or Conforto - obviously he's in a hot streak, but Nimmo's numbers hold up against those guys in many stats.

I wonder when people start talking about extending Nimmo
Couldn't ask for a better first inning  
larryflower37 : 4/14/2021 7:38 pm : link
Wheeler at 30 pitches.
Nimmo is one of the most  
KDavies : 4/14/2021 7:46 pm : link
underrated hitters in baseball. Just incredible. Obp is around.600 so far

That first inning from Wheeler

Wonderful
Bernie Madoff

would be my guess..
Why the fuck does Rojas continue to be a fucking moron?!?!  
speedywheels : 4/14/2021 9:09 pm : link
Familia AGAIN in a high leverage situation?? I guess he wants to ruin this terrific start by Peterson.

Oh, look - a leadoff walk. Color me shocked...
Don't see how a story  
moze1021 : 4/14/2021 9:09 pm : link
About Madoff or Callaway would be something we should "brace" for. If it's bad it's something to do with current management, coach, or player.. otherwise it would just be fodder..

Another bad decision  
ryanmkeane : 4/14/2021 9:13 pm : link
by Rojas not letting Peterson at least start that inning.
What good  
Mike in NY : 4/14/2021 9:13 pm : link
Is having Barnes, Hildenberger, or Gsellman on the roster if Rojas refuses to use them and instead burns out Castro, May, and Familia?

Peterson would have been facing 3 righties and was having increasingly harder time putting guys away in 6th so I don’t begrudge the move. The problem is relying on the same 3 guys
Speedy  
ryanmkeane : 4/14/2021 9:15 pm : link
I truly don’t think Rojas has any feel during the game - he just makes moves based on thinking that each reliever is going to be great, when in reality you HAVE to understand when you have a starter who is dealing you let him go until it’s somewhat obvious he’s done, especially w the way our bullpen has been performing.

Instead, he thinks Familia is good. He’s not good. He’s a bad reliever.
Mike  
ryanmkeane : 4/14/2021 9:16 pm : link
I disagree. You let Peterson go at least 1 batter.
People are gonna say  
ryanmkeane : 4/14/2021 9:18 pm : link
“Well it doesn’t matter cause they got out of the inning” but the bigger issue is Rojas’ philosophy - and if he continues to manage games like this they will be put in a bad spot late in games more often than not

Realmuto is a far better hitter, especially for power, against lefties
If we are going to kill Rojas for his mistakes  
Vanzetti : 4/14/2021 9:19 pm : link
You gotta give him credit for going to Loup against Didii

A lot managers would have left Familia in, looking for the gidp

Give him credit for taking out Familia after giving up a walk and a hit, and then bringing in a lefty vs a lefty?

It wasn’t as strategic as you’d think. With the 3 batter minimum if he did not end the inning, after Didi you had Roman Quinn and a LH PH for Wheeler unless Philly wanted to burn their backup C
Dom Smith

is a perfect no. 3 hitter.

This pen has rebounded big time this week.

One more inning to go.

Rojas made the right move, you need to chill.

I think he's going to be solid. It's a bummer Realmuto didn't want to come here but at the lesser cost I think McCann is going to be solid, and the money saved obviously helped them invest big in Lindor. And hopefully Conforto too.
Mets could have a June-ish pen that looks something like  
ZGiants98 : 4/14/2021 9:58 pm : link
Diaz
Lugo
Castro
May
Familia
Loup
Smith
Vizcaino

While lookin to add more at the deadline.

Diaz holds the keys, but I think we are going to be more than fine.
