Time for another Subway Series: the second & final one this season. Separate threads as usual—Mets fans only on this thread: We go our own way, they go theirs. The Mets somehow split a four-game set with the craptastic Marlins, who they finished their season series against yesterday (5-5 record). Beginning with this game, the Mets are stepping up in weight class. Their next three opponents are the Prison Stripers, Barfs, & Twins. Click
HERE to read a series preview of this season’s Yankee Stadium edition of the Subway Series. Enjoy 😊!

Male Yankees fan assaulting a woman? Then ripping off his Yankee jersey to fight and then flex in front of the camera? If this isn’t the most Yankee thing ever, I don’t know what is. Totally on brand. Looks like Dave had a rough night.

Tough guys from the mean streets of Westchester...
P.S. The Yankees thread seems to have disappeared, lol.

Have to be honest…I absolutely love (and not shocked) how easily triggered you are. Wanna keep going? It’s just too easy.
Says the guy who's first thing on his mind is the opposing team's thread.
That's rich.
You do realize what thread you’re on, right? At least you’re man enough to come on after your team got its ass kicked, so I’ll give you that.
in july he's had a homer surge, though not necessarily an XBH surge, however the big thing is look at those walks and k's. he is absolutely locked in.
contact quality has been good all year but that ASG snub has seemingly fueled him to reach another level.
in terms of Met history he's now put himself in position to pass Piazza on the mets all time war leaderboard by the end of next year in like 200 fewer games. he turns 31 in the offseason and he will only be 2-3 more "typical francisco lindor" (non-mvp) seasons away from being 2nd most valuable player in mets history.
We're all Giants fans after all.
just as amazing is that the offense is doing what it's doing with Pete having his worst year by a big margin. lowest barrel rate, lowest x&actual woba,, lowest avg ev, add all that up and no surprise lowest xslug. in the likely event that lindor cools down they will need pete/jdm to step up and carry things again.
yeah i mean he was on the exact same track lindor is career wise through age 30. age 31 everything fell apart.
through age 30 wright was right at 50 fwar, lindor is at 51.4 fwar. wright didnt even accumulate 1 fwar after age 31.

everyone else David Wright is, even with all the injuries

Per source, A's will place All-Star closer Mason Miller on the injured list today with a fracture of the fifth metacarpal (pinkie) in his left hand. It's a non-pitching injury he suffered after pounding a padded training room table in frustration following Monday night's win.

that stinks. i guess it wasnt certain they were going to trade him but presumably every other reliever gets more competitive now.

Starling Marte (bone bruise in right knee) says he hopes to begin a running program this week. He expects to go on a minor league rehab assignment before activation, so it's still going to be a while yet.

Here's a clip from X of him actually speaking in English (*weird, lol*) about his injury situation:

I have him on my FB team. Looks like he pitched 1 inning Monday and allowed no hits or walks and his team won.
He threw 11 pitches, 7 for strikes.
Doesn't seem like a "pound a training table in frustration" performance.

Important clarification on Mason Miller injury: he did not pound the table out of frustration. He put his hand down awkwardly on the training table while getting ready to do an exercise.

i cannot remember a stranger injury situation over the last 3 years than marte.
2022 = supposedly plays with double groin injury, has all star season
2023 = gets offseason surgery which was supposed to make things better that instead made him even less mobile, has the migraine issue, the neck issue, probably other stuff im not remembering
2024 = comes back perhaps even more athletically diminished, can still hit thankfully, then has this weird knee issue
it's not cespedes falling off the horse but it's all very strange.

I'm not saying he ain't hurt, BUT...I think he's milking this injury as long as possible so he doesn't get traded during the deadline. Once the deadline has passed, no more problem as far as that's concerned. Just my theory...
Especially closers. ;)
