Soto for Torrens?  That's good too.

Not batting for Francisco either.

Brewers made some plays and the Mets could not cash in in the 8th

Soto schmoto

[Frayed Knot]

The time to PH Soto was for Polanco in the 8th (two on/two out). He would have then stayed in the DH spot and maybe batted again if/when it went to extras. But apparently it was pre-decided that Juan was to get a full two days off.

 

 

Now in the last 10 games the Mets are 11/77 w/RiSP while 13 of their last 14 HRs are solos. Those kinds of numbers should be near impossible to sustain but they keep finding ways to sustain them. Even somewhere close to 'normal' results in either or both of those stats possibly flips their 4-6 record over the last week and a half to 6-4.

That's $50 million worth of benchwarming.

How do I sign up for that gig?

You can't blame Ewing for the good contact, but good defense coupled with smart positioning sealed the W for Milwaukee.

Also, I discussed this in another thread that both Robert and Taylor are obvious trade candidates and I was expecting both to be showcased as much as possible.  So naturally Baty was playing right.  While I think Baty could handle the position given the experience (McNeil never had a problem, Ewing is a converted second baseman, hell Lagares was a converted infielder), the need for him to play there doesn't exist right now..
