I'll have a go at the game thread today, as nothing has been posted, and the Mets lost on Sunday. As a topic starter, what do you think of the Peralta trade news? I think it's bunk, as it's way too early for such talk, and I think Stearns would rather extend Peralta than trade him.

I can watch Benge and Ewing all season long regardless of whether the Mets recover

I don't care about Peralta or really any of Sterns' guys. I'd trade the living shit out of him.

Tuesday Night Mets in 513 tonight

I haven't read where Ewing will definitely be in the starting lineup.

I hope he is. The Mets offense (a true oxymoron if there ever was one) needs a spark of energy.

The "news" on Peralta isn't news at all, it's mere speculation.

All that was basically said in that recent link posted here somewhere is that IF the Mets are still reeling as the trade deadline nears then Peralta would likely be the type of guy they'd deal and so the Tiggers and Cubbies, both with injuries galore to their staffs, would be among the teams interested.

Nothing in that statement is false, but it also doesn't make it news.

Yeah, I used "news" when I shouldn't have, it's just rumors. Still doesn't make sense to me, not with the Mets' pocketbook. Just keep Peralta if you want him, and sign him to a 5-ish year deal after the season.

Quickie KTE: Tiggers currently sit at 19-22 but that's just 2.0 G behind 1st place Cleveland in the meh-ness that is the AL Central.  17th in run scoring [4.27 RS/G vs MLB avg of 4.4] but better than average in preventing them [11th in RA/G at 4.17/G] although that status may take a hit with the ongoing absence of Tarik Skubal. Skubal last pitched on 4/29 when he was diagnosed with "loose bodies" in his elbow (better there than in one's head, I suppose). But maybe he won't be out as long as originally thought. Agent-to-all-impending-free-agents Scott Boras said that doctors were able to perform a less invasive than usual procedure on the 2x CY winner, one which Boras has taken to calling (and quite possibly copyrighting for all I know) the 'Skubal Scoop'. I guess maybe the fact that Tommie John never made a dime from his eponymous surgery upsets Scottie's sense of fairness and so this is his attempted remedy.

On the offensive said, 25 y/o LF Riley Green is their big masher [.317/.418/.490 // 907 ] and they have probably the prized 2026 rookie in Kevin McGonigle who made the team out of spring training, then signed a 9-yr/$150 mil contract, and will turn 22 in August.

Also missing this series due to their butts being parked on the IL:  ex-NYY Gleybar Torres, ex-NYM Javier Baez, Kerry Carpenter, Casey Mize, Justin Verlander (say it ain't so!!).

After the last 2 games in Arizona I told myself I needed to take a break for a while.  Watching the abysmal play of the current team was too frustrating and it just wasn't enjoyable.  

 

The debut of AJ Ewing has sucked me back in.  It may only be for tonight, but I feel more compelled to watch him play than I do watching other team's cast offs.

I'm telling you — back-to-the-wall baseball is good baseball.  Sometimes it's the best baseball.

48 pitches just to get thru 2 in addition to the two runs.

The pitches are definitely piling up.  He needs a quick inning or two to get back on track.

Fun Fact: Prior to that single Juan Soto had either Popped-up or Flew out in 74 consecutive ABs

OK, that's not remotely true ... but it seems like it is
