=MFS62 post_id=42780 time=1596543117 user_id=60] For a GM who was praised for how he handled the last draft, Brodie is treating prospects in their minor league system like qualified scientists in the CDC. Later

=Fman99 post_id=42736 time=1596501382 user_id=86] Rumor is that the Marlins' outbreak was induced by a trip that several players took to a night club. So, it turns out, MLB players are actually stupid. Who knew

I'm normally inclined to believe LOLMets, but in this case without further evidence I'll believe the team as Cespedes is still the Boar Liar

And he couldnt tell the Mets that BEFORE vanishing? That is all he had to do.

Yeah, the Mets shouldn't be forced to scramble or cover for his ass. Did his agent, who ultimately delivered the message, completely fuck up and not deliver it earlier as he should have? that is about the only way Cespedes wouldn't be the dick here.

Whatever I had been up to, I would appreciate it if the club spoke with me before letting the world know. eh, fuck that. its game day and you aren't at the park, reporters and others will immediately be asking why. The Mets shouldn't need to lie or say 'no comment' because you didn't have the common decency to make a phone call. Don't like it? don't work in an industry where your job takes place on live television. How can you think that before at least knowing the reason for Cespedes's disappearance? I t was already reported that the Mets knew he wasn't in danger.

does he suck like Curtis sucked? I hope he sucks that much the rest of the way.

Reports on ESPN say he disappeared like a thief in the night, he and his things were gone when the Mets sent someone to his hotel room. His agent called during the game to inform BVW. I hope a Diaz fastball finds his rear end wherever he plays next year. What an ass. You want to opt-out? do it like a professional.

It is pretty dumb, but it seems like a good strategy given the dumb rules - pinch run him with 2 outs knowing he starts the 10th on 2B if caught stealing. You can also presumably pinch run for the guy on the 2nd anyway, right?

Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: Pete Alonso is killing the Mets I was thinking yesterday that if the Mets don't want to rest Alonso, they should at least DH him for a game or two, and slide Dom onto the first base bag, meanwhile. its a short season this year, there is really no reason for the best players not to play 58+ games with the DH available. -

i thought that was a hit for sure. damn. -
Lowrie should just duck out citing 'covid' and call it a day. 'While I realize covid isnt the most dangerous thing the world for someone my age, you all know I can't be described as "in good health", so i'm going to step aside and stay safe because anything I can catch I WILL catch"
-
how long is the roster 30 players? might be the best pinch-runner in the league if the Mets can stash him on the 40 but off the 25 until playoffs?

I had zero recollection of Shoppach being a Met

Until covid screws all that up. Best you can do at this point is cancel whiever is infected amd if two teams are cancelled let their opponents play instead, the heck with balancing schedule

the #17 reliever was the most valuable fantasy player on the terrible early 2010's Marlins, because stupid saves are category! Steve Cishek!

Edgy MD wrote: Derek Jeter should be forced to play for the Marlins. Sheesh, could you imagine how quickly the plug would be pulled if all owners and execs were expected to dress for the games with the players? Given their relative ages they could all opt out as 'high risk', except Jeter. Jeter should be out there with the team boosting morale, inspiring greatness, handing out gift baskets, and social-distancing from ground-balls in the hole as he did during his playing career.

=batmagadanleadoff post_id=42180 time=1596125342 user_id=68] I don't see how it's supposed to make a logical difference whether deGrom is pitching the first five or six innings of a game or the last five or six innings of a game. Unless the Mets open with a lefty on deGrom's day and the opposing team sets a lineup geared towards a lefty pitcher. Then there might be an advantage to bringing deGrom in midway. But If deGrom is pitching the same five or six innings, then he'd be on regular rest and a regular schedule and the opposing manager should know with great precision, which game deGrom will enter midway. The Mets inability to capitalize on deGrom's brilliance is nothing more than a bizarre and tremendous statistical fluke that should eventually disappear so long as deGrom continues to pitch like he has been pitching. Having him finish rather than start games shouldn't change anything.
