Carrasco expected to move to Syracuse and go at least 3 innings tomorrow night. Rojas claims it could be his last rehab start. Guess we’ll see. Stock pitching tomorrow. Mets rotation is in tatters with deGrom, Carrasco, Syndergaard, Peterson, Lucchesi, Yamamoto, and Oswalt out. We need Cookie in the worst way imaginable! LFGM!

MLB is suspending managers for arguing with an umpire? What a joke.

He made contact with umpire
Rojas  
SJGiant : 7/19/2021 6:55 pm : link
“New York Mets manager Luis Rojas was suspended Monday for two games and fined for excessive arguing with umpires, an outburst that followed a bizarre play a day earlier at Pittsburgh.”

It doesn’t say anything about the bumping of the umpire he did.
Rojas Suspension - ( New Window )
Mets off to a hot start  
ZGiants98 : 7/19/2021 7:22 pm : link
Alonso and McNeil back to back...
I said it in the other thread...  
moze1021 : 7/19/2021 7:27 pm : link
Rojas might have woken them up..

Suspension well worth it if the bats get going. Even without deGrom and Lindor, no one in NL East can hang with Mets if the offensive guys all play to the level that should.
Mets made a bunch of roster moves tonight before the game started  
ZGiants98 : 7/19/2021 7:28 pm : link
INF Travis Blankenhorn has been optioned to Triple-A Syracuse.

OF Johneshwy Fargas has been designated for assignment.

RHP Stephen Nogosek has been selected from Triple-A Syracuse. He will wear #85.

LHP Anthony Banda has been selected from Triple-A Syracuse. He will wear #77.

RHP Corey Oswalt has been transferred to the 60-Day IL.

LG got to make that play  
KevinBBWC : 7/19/2021 7:34 pm : link
and now bases loaded with no outs.
Eickhoff sucks  
Metnut : 7/19/2021 7:47 pm : link
We don’t have the depth to really get good outings with our #10SP. Best we can do is try to slug out a few wins in these spots.
What in the hell

LG again with two errors

WTF and then makes it worse. Go for the DP.
Yeah we need to trade for a SS

Guillorme  
Mike in NY : 7/19/2021 8:00 pm : link
Can’t hit for more than singles and if he can’t field I would rather see Blankenhorn, Cortes, Romero, etc.
he definitely bumped the umpire  
pjcas18 : 7/19/2021 8:02 pm : link
and earned the suspension.

the "pitching and defense" approach on full display tonight.
Where are the people who were griping about Lindor??  
DonQuixote : 7/19/2021 8:02 pm : link
FL was 0.333 in July and ran the defense. We'll miss him...
This is embarrassing  
ZGiants98 : 7/19/2021 8:02 pm : link
Awful job by McNeil and LG so far...

Meh..these are routine plays...don't need a $300M player to do that

Lindor is a nice player.. griping Mets fans are those like me who was expecting an MVP candidate, superstar player like Tatis, Guerrero, Acuna... With reset expectations, he's just a foundational piece, not a Wright, Reyes level superstar and that's ok
What a difference Nimmo and JD make in this lineup  
Vanzetti : 7/19/2021 8:34 pm : link
They will help the other guys heat up

Thank God. People underestimated how big of a deal it was missing Nimmo, JD, Conforto, and McNeil for such a long stretch.

We are finally seeing close to the real lineup. Even with Lindor out.
Need Alonso  
spike : 7/19/2021 8:36 pm : link
to get a hit here and get the lead.
you guys

still want to give up on the season?
They battling back  
KevinBBWC : 7/19/2021 8:40 pm : link
7-6. Should have been tied if Eickhoff can run at all.
Damn that was close  
KevinBBWC : 7/19/2021 8:41 pm : link
Looks like McNeil thought it was gone.
Luis G is a terrific fielder  
Vanzetti : 7/19/2021 8:41 pm : link
Not worried about his errors tonightt at all
Dom ties it up  
KevinBBWC : 7/19/2021 8:57 pm : link
with a bomb.
Haha.  
ZGiants98 : 7/19/2021 8:57 pm : link
This game is awesome. lol. Everyone in on the action now.
Crazy game  
Vanzetti : 7/19/2021 8:59 pm : link
7-7

Looks like a football score
the New Mets  
spike : 7/19/2021 9:23 pm : link
Gotta outscore their opponents every game, now that they have no starting pitching
This reds reliever has

a 9.0 ERA

I thought the Reds were supposed to be good
Why is Castro in a tied game?

Don't we have better relief choices to try to win this?

There's 3 more innings and they just had a defacto bp game yesterday is my guess

Lugo and Diaz aren’t doing great lately either. You’d think they’d be refreshed after the all star break. If our pen is falling apart things are going to get really dicey.

Hopefully the bats still have some noise left.

Mets showing some real fight past few days.
Keeping Lugo in here is crazy.

I don’t get it, but what do I know.
Lol, like I said, what do I know.

Nice to see from Lugo.
maybe its me but  
Rory : 7/19/2021 10:53 pm : link
it just seems every single relief pitcher we have doesnt come off a break or day off well.
Diaz fucking sucks.  
CooperDash : 7/19/2021 10:55 pm : link
I’m so done with this guy.
I wanted to put him on.

Not walking Winker there. Ronnie knew it... Unbelievable.

Everyone did but the manager.
It's the walks  
allstarjim : 7/19/2021 11:01 pm : link
With Diaz. Letting that leadoff guy on in these situations, it's just not what you want to see from the closer. Not only that, and it ended up not mattering, but a better throw or a catch by McNeil has Winker out at 2nd.

Defense has been a huge concern recently and it continues to cost them dearly.
But yes  
allstarjim : 7/19/2021 11:03 pm : link
I think the smarter move was tonwalk Winker to get to Freeman. That said, Jauss put it on Diaz maybe to get some confidence back, but it backfired.

You can’t put the winning run on base obviously. We don’t have good players. They’ve fought hard considering the injuries but realistically how will we hold off the phillies without an ace, our shortstop, a 4 or 5 starter and no closer? It’s just not realistic.
Should read — don’t have enough good players  
MetsAreBack : 7/19/2021 11:05 pm : link
Way too many holes. Diaz still closing for this tram after three years of this is at this point just lazy and insane
Need to get a closer and starter  
spike : 7/19/2021 11:07 pm : link
We won’t luck into another Megill
I’ve always been a “closer by committee” guy  
CooperDash : 7/19/2021 11:10 pm : link
That statistics show that there really isn’t much of a difference between having a true closer versus not. Diaz gives and then takes. But he’s not very good. Or at least does t have the mentality for it.

And Guillorme and his one RBI for the year can take a hike. The most unclutch player on this team.
Diaz is better at home
