Flipflopping Winker and Vientos? What's up with that?



Also, batting your DH 8th? I thought your DH was supposed to be a good hitter.

[MFS62]

Holmes with third inning problems.

He's moving from relieving to starting.

Is it mental or physical?

Later

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

This is a clown show 🤡

[Frayed Knot]

The bats and the gloves are abandoning us early this season.

[Edgy MD]

Nimmo seems like he has committed to letting that beard grow.

[Edgy MD]

Winker took two meaties.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

The Mets look worse than Zimmo's beard and that's saying something 😕

Haha , true though

[Fman99]

Watching this team hit is like watching old people fuck

[Frayed Knot]

Nimmo's beard isn't bad. He no longer looks like the old squeaky clean Brandon, but that's OK.

Senga's chin patch on the other hand ...

[Edgy MD]

Hayden, that smelled triply.



I get why you stopped, of course.

[Edgy MD]

Marlins burning their lone lefty in the sixth against the leadoff batter. That is something.

[Edgy MD]

The umpire had to "do a little Fred Asparagus"?



How is there a Keith-ism I have not heard before?

[Edgy MD]

The hitting will likely come around, but this may be something like the defense we can expect to see.

[ashie62]

Very frustrating



Senga and Holmes have a ways to go

[Frayed Knot]

Winker's walk (now erased by a GiDP) was the Mets 18th of the young season.

But Alonso (4) and Soto (6) have 10 of them.

[Frayed Knot]

Send in the dancing bears!

[The Hot Corner]

The Mets are playing like it's 1964. They have found numerous ways to lose thus far. No hitting, beyond Soto. The defense has been gifting base runners and runs to the opposition. They definitely need to wake up and get their heads out of their butts.

[Edgy MD]

The chestplate lettering on these road grays wouldn't be that bad, but they are so dwarfed by the numbers.

[Frayed Knot]

Torrens should have plowed the catcher there.

It IS permitted even under the new rules if the catcher has the ball and is blocking the plate.

[Edgy MD]

Alonso getting some pitches to hit.

[Edgy MD]

And that was one too many pitches to hit.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Alonso is carrying this sorry club

[Frayed Knot]

Pete was pretty damn sure that one was gone for a ball that just barely snuck over the fence.
