That was Cookie Lavagetto.

Players-only team meeting per Brandon... you know what that means...



Bad News for The Diamondbacks!!!

If that guy was an Ohtani fan, he couldn't have asked for a better souvenir for his afternoon. His hero torches the guy and his tenure and possibly career end shortly after, and you get to walk off with the trophy.



X-Rays on Alonso have apparently come back negative, and I kind of hate that I sort of have mixed feelings about that. A broken finger or two would have really derailed his career.

Great news on Alonso



The two Japanese fans with the Showhey hit a homer sign were rewarded

The place was loaded with Asian fans on Tuesday including a rowful right behind the Tuesday Night Mets Club that talked through the game. By the way I don't wanna revisit Tuesday night but if Ottavino leaves his feet and catches that popped-up bunt everything is different. No clubhouse meeting, Lopez still has a job, everything. I know lots of other things that coulda changed meant that too but here was a mistake by the opposition that turned into disaster for the Mets. He's gotta make the effort to catch that.

Like a lot of weekday afternoon games, my original intent was to ignore the game in real time and then watch it during/after dinner as though it were happening live. But this week and month have been so bad that I never got around to putting it on from the DVR. Probably for the best that I didn't get through 8 innings of a close game just to watch the bullpen make doodie sauce all over my TV.

Ugh. That play.



Picking up Raley's option and letting Ottavino dangle around for a while before bringing him back on the cheap in January seemed like some good stealth moves for a bit but they're both blowing up in Stearns' face.

I thought this game would get the Lost in Space Robot banner.

These things go in rotation. Any thematic connection to any particular game is strictly coincidental.

[Edgy MD]

I certainly figured that, but coincidence seems to be going very interestingly for the Mets of late.

No fracture from Pete's HBP. Day to day, as they say.
