Baty demoted

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

It hadda happen.



Also, Marte onto the DL again



Abraham Almonte up



Also Jonathan Arauz recalled

[MFS62]

What does Mauricio have to do to get called up?

Did he run over Eppler's dog?

I know his defense at second isn't ready yet, but Arauz is no Felix Millan either.

Best for Baty , see you in Spring Training

Couldn't have a better debut -- homering in his first MLB at-bat on the very first pitch he ever swung at. And he's been dreadful ever since that at-bat. Beyond dreadful.

Ten days shy of vesting. If he remains in the minors for the rest of the season (or even if he returns for less than ten days) his FA status is delayed until 2027.



In another thread someone suggested the Mets are tanking. I have to think there is something to that.

Protecting picks that would be lost due to exceeding the luxury-tax.



I'm too lazy to search but iirc, they lost a pick for doing so, regardless of finish, but the penalty is much reduced if they are in the bottom tier in regards to W-L record as opposed to mid-to-higher tier.

[Frayed Knot]

So Baty is demoted and Vientos is even worse.
