Maybe he should have gotten the MRI.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Two outs in the first and Syndergaard has allowed five runs.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Gilmartin up in the bullpen.

[Guest themetfairy]

The damn inning is over!

[Benjamin Grimm]

I'll watch the Mets bat in the second to see if they get any runs back. If they don't score I'm going to bail, at least for a while.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Rene Rivera homers, so I'll stick around a little longer.

[Edgy MD]

Three-run deficit? Definitely recoverable.

The big mistake was walking Harper.

[Edgy MD]

And down goes Syndergaard.

Aw crap. Perhaps he'll consent to the MRI now.
I have the radio feed on: Howie said that Terry and Sandy must be "seething" now.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Leaves the mound after wincing in pain. Sheesh.

They should save some of that seething for themselves for letting him dictate up the chain of the command.

Damn superhero nicknames clouding these guys' judgment.

[Benjamin Grimm]

It's true that they can't strap him down and force him to get an MRI, but they could have said, "We can't let you pitch if we don't know what this is, so it's MRI or DL."

[Edgy MD]

Yup.

Take that, fates! —Jay Bruce

[Benjamin Grimm]

Mets are chipping away.

Only a few batters, but Gilly is pitching to nail down what looks to be a suddenly open spot in the rotation.

Rendon has a different opinion.

[bmfc1]

Murphy bitching about every called strike against him showed intensity when he was a Met but now he's just a whiny, complaining, POS. Sit down and shut up. I can't wait for an ump to show some stones and kick him out of the game.

[Edgy MD]

We've got a one-run game.

[Edgy MD]

Rendon bloodying the Mets.

[bmfc1]

Gilmartin is so bad but Sandy refused, and still refuses, to stock the system so the team is stuck with Gilmartin or Montero if Noah is gone for awhile.

[Guest 41Forever]

And that's the ball game....

I'm not sure who you thought the team was going to get on a minor league deal that could have displaced the starting pitching depth they came to camp with.

[Edgy MD]

Rendon hasn't earned Terry's respect over the last two innings.

[Edgy MD]

Holy crap, three more ribbies!

[Benjamin Grimm]

This is looking like the kind of game where a position player throws an inning or two.
