  1. I believe it's a function of deadlines. The game ended around 12:30 AM. The News pictured is a Racing Final, not a Sports Final. New York Newsday tended to be an earlier edition than LI. I know the later News had a photo of Marv Albert interviewing Ray Knight, leading me to infer they went with whatever they could get amid the time crunch. Also: no Sunday NY Post in 1986.
  2. Corey Oswalt…boy, I just don't know.
  3. For Game Two: Nimmo CF Lindor SS D. Smith LF Alonso 1B McCann C Conforto DH Pillar RF Villar 3B Peraza 2B Oswalt RHP
  4. Villar back. Almora, his minuscule batting average and enormous ERA go to Syracuse.
  5. Lindor taketh away from his own pitcher.
  6. Yennsy Diaz has replaced IL-bound England Dan and Sean Reid-Foley (elbows inflammation).
  7. Reyes was having a http://www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2008/07/05/reyes-annus-horribilis/rough year over the preceding 12 months. He'd snap out of it in 2008. So would the Mets, as much as they could. AMAZIN' FIREWORKS I preceded by days the club's long-awaited sustained burst of competence, which vaulted them into first place, if not to stay.
  8. Nick Tropeano is a man. The 27th man.
  9. Superagent Tom Reich, 82. https://www.post-gazette.com/news/obituaries/2021/07/02/Tom-Reich-pioneering-agent-who-represented-Pirates-players-dies-at-82/stories/202107020148https://www.post-gazette.com/news/obituaries/2021/07/02/Tom-Reich-pioneering-agent-who-represented-Pirates-players-dies-at-82/stories/202107020148
  10. Peterson has an oblique strain. Considered week to week, though it's usually an eight-week deal. David's is between Grades 1 and 2.
  11. Nimmo CF Lindor SS D. Smith 1B Alonso DH McCann C Conforto RF Pillar LF McNeil 2B Peraza 3B Walker RHP
  12. There's the possibility Stroman wanted to rejoin his teammates or resume a sense of routine (speaking from experience when I chose to cut my own “take all the time you need” short after a death in the family).
  13. When Stroman was headed for the BL, Rojas discussed the timing in terms of Stroman's preparation for his next start, leading me to believe it must be considered beneficial to not have the next day's starting pitcher come in cold after several days away.
  14. Outstanding answer from Luis here.
  15. Your National League Pitcher of the Month is…JACOB deGROM! Try not to fall over from shock.
  16. Welcome back Cheyenne Sunshine!
  17. Nimmo CF Lindor SS D. Smith 1B Alonso DH McCann C McNeil 2B Pillar LF McKinney RF Peraza 3B Walker RHP
  18. The only “ONE AND ONLY ONE” I'd consider as “this guy should go in on his own because he's this guy” is Wright, and I'd pair the occasion with 5 rising to the rafters. The irony would be David is is as selfless a character as one could imagine and he'd happily share his day with any 5 Mets.
  19. Four here, four there. RHP Marcus Stroman has been reinstated from the Bereavement List RHP Jeurys Familia has been reinstated from the 10-Day IL. Catcher Tomas Nido has been reinstated from the 10-Day IL. OF Brandon Nimmo has been reinstated from the 10-Day IL. LHP David Peterson has been placed on the 10-Day IL, retroactive to July 1, with right side soreness. Catcher Patrick Mazeika has been optioned to Triple-A Syracuse. INF Travis Blankenhorn has been optioned to Triple-A Syracuse. RHP Thomas Szapucki has been optioned to Triple-A Syracuse.
  20. When I noticed Toffey in a recent Binghamton lineup or such, I did a double-take, like “he's still here?” Bobby Wahl we got a taste of, yet nothing from his trade compatriot.
