Ill guess that Drury goes first but we'll see.
Roster moves coming soon  
NewBlue : 6/17/2021 6:52 pm : link
Peraza, Mason Williams and Drury for....McNeil, Conforto and Nimmo.....Almora stays in Syracuse because McKinney is doing so well.

It doesn't make sense but Rojas indicated Almora will be up soon. Maybe he'll go back down for Nimmo.

Mason Williams is out of options, he'd have to be DFA'ed, and possibly claimed.

Kind of surprised I'm not seeing more @mets fans clamoring for them to sign Semien in the off-season. He's proven IF versatility that could be valuable if/when Baty is deemed ready... oh and he's very good
Ugh

Is it just me or does Villar

always seem to leadoff with a double or a walk every game lately?

More and more I think Villar/Guillorme deserve the bulk of PT at 3b. JDD on the outside looking in. Would be nice to get an update on him or Nimmo...
Davis  
CMicks3110 : 6/17/2021 7:27 pm : link
was hitting real good when he got hurt
Said it the other day...  
ZGiants98 : 6/17/2021 7:27 pm : link
Almora will be back briefly but only until Nimmo returns.

Villar is our starting 3B for the rest of the year unless his offense goes in the tank. You cant take him out of the starting lineup for Davis.

And I like Davis. I'd probably even prefer him because he's younger and has more longterm upside.

But Villar is playing scratch D at 3B and giving us 15% over league average offense.

Cant take him out.

LG missed a golden opportunity to impress.  
ZGiants98 : 6/17/2021 7:29 pm : link
2B was wide open the entire time McNeil was out. Unfortunately for him, McNeil was only days behind him.

Oh well. Still love him for the bench.

Oswalt clearly doesn't care to help the Mets and their SP needs... 3 runs allowed through 2 including 2 homers.
Charlie Morton no-hittter through 5  
KDavies : 6/17/2021 8:43 pm : link
hope I jinxed it
Mauricio heating up  
ZGiants98 : 6/17/2021 8:47 pm : link
3-3 tonight.

This game is a complete slog...
Why in the world....

Did Lindor swing on 3-0 down 2 in the ninth with 1 out and Pete on deck. Stupid

Wasn’t it 3-1?

I only saw some of the game (on the edge of my seat watching isles try to pull this off) but most of the Mets ABs seemed to have a good approach. Can’t win em all.

WSH won’t be easy, but they are missing their two best arms which helps.

The only options in the minors who appear to be pitching well are Megill and Josh Walker

We almost had it, but you didn't put the game thread up!

;)

Onwards, and hopefully upwards this weekend -- Nats are surging a little after a really rough start. If we could win the 4 game series, it would be a really nice shovel of dirt on them. Lots of division games this week -- 12 in 9 days of play (Thursday off). Go 7-5 or better in them in life is good.
Always tough to sweep a 4-game set,  
Section331 : 6/18/2021 9:35 am : link
I'll take a 5-2 homestand against 2 of the better teams in the NL. Now bury the Nats.

It is a gamble because he has struggled at AAA, albeit in some very hitter friendly ball parks since he is susceptible to the long ball, but Texas just cut Tyson Miller (who they picked up when Cubs cut him). I think he offers more potential than someone like Tarpley if he clears waivers. He only turns 26 at the end of July.

DeGrom threw his usual brief 10-pitch side session today and felt good, Luis Rojas said. “A very good day. We’re still approaching this day by day.”
