So, Reyes or Flores in the outfield ... it's never going to happen, is it? Or at least, not until the team gets in a jam during the regular season and they need it to happen.

Run 'em out there, man!

[Guest sharpie]

Also would like to see Jay Bruce get a game at first base.

[Edgy MD]

Yeah, what's up with that, American League manager?

[Fman99]

I'd be happy just to have the game audio available online. If Sirius XM didn't suck a big fat toe.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Live shot of Conforto in a minor league game just made me swoon.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Since I have been crapping on Gonzalez as much or more as anyone here, I feel obligated to point out his very nice opposite field single in his first AB. I think it made Keith a little horny, too.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Mets get a run on a Cabrera double and a Jay Bruce single, while Jacob deGrom just does the damn thing, 3 IP, 6 K's.

[Edgy MD]

Feels like the first lead in a week.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Pretty, leaping snare by Rosario to end the Orioles half of the 4th.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Rosario just made a sweet barehanded play that will be worth the hunt online for the replay. Jake did 5 scoreless, 8 K's, but Gsellman comes on and promptly gives up a homer. 1-1 score.

[Guest sharpie]

Remember that lead? Gone - error by Bruce and a homer by Beckham offa Gsellman.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Frazier walks, then gets picked off by Josh Edgin. The Mets are playing some sloppy ass baseball this month.

That's because Bruce is not good.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Is not good >, =, or < meh?

Glad I DVR'd, can't wait to watch deGrom sail through
five like a hot knife through butter.

[A Boy Named Seo]

I feel like his RBI single was decidedly "good", but the error was inarguably "not good".

Well his single was a hard hit ball, but it wasn't a fly ball. The stretches where Bruce has been good, as someone that's especially benefited from a juiced ball, are when he elevates the ball.

I mean, it doesn't matter. It's practice. Hopefully he can still get some good power in 2018. But he'll never be a good fielder.

[ashie62]

I like this team!

My only gripe is the number of pitchers we are going to bring north.

13 feels like a stretch and an unlucky number

[Guest sharpie]

Game ends in a tie.
