like Khalil Lee is in a CO spot. Hopefully, that's not a sign of things to come. Far, far less interesting if he's not a CF.
Alonso

says he cried after hearing about Davis/Slater.

What’s the justification for this? He’s supposed to be a CF? Why not let him play CF in AAA?

like he was one of the players upset they heard it online

Alonso: "It's confusing for me. I respect everybody who made that decision, but to me it just doesn't make sense right now." Alonso said he had a professional conversation with Zack Scott last night after hearing about the move.

Resnick just confirmed he's seen more time in RF than CF

@SNYtv
Strictly? No, I don't think so. They were rotating guys to each spot on an inning-by-inning basis at the Alt Site. But IIRC he did spend more time in RF than CF."


Disappointing if this is where they see him. Don't see him as a difference-maker with the bat in a corner. To me he's a 4th OF profile if he can't play reasonable CF. Still valuable but less interesting.

Pete Alonso and why the Mets fired Chili Davis and Tom Slater: "Things just aren't clear to me right now."

He said that is true even after acting GM Zack Scott spoke to the team today.

I can imagine feeling guilty any time a position coach of yours gets fired.

Lindor is likely feeling pretty bad right now. Gotta figure if he were mashing Davis is still here (at least for now).
Yamamoto  
DanMetroMan : 5/4/2021 4:32 pm : link
scratched. Called up?

Jordan Yamamoto was scratched from his Opening Day start for Triple-A Syracuse tonight.

Jerad Eickhoff will start instead. #Mets

Yeah, Lindor is who i was thinking of, but same for anyone really, a lot of slow starts in that lineup.

Lindor looks lost at the plate, like he's trying to hit a 340 million dollar HR every at bat.

I hope Yamamoto is coming up for depth/replace Lucchesi in the rotation and not a SP injury...
People  
DanMetroMan : 5/4/2021 4:36 pm : link
are suggesting Stroman may miss a start (or even IR) with Yamamoto replacing him.

Geez, Mets can't catch a break...
Saw commentary on Twitter today  
Metnut : 5/4/2021 4:45 pm : link
that Lindor’s swings look like someone with a wrist injury.
Wow.

Jacob deGrom scratched from tonight’s game with lat issue, per sources. Yamamoto will make the start for @mets

So the second "extra day" did mean something was wrong.
