    Header for May 18 on the current ballot should read Marlins 2 Mets 0.

    Lowrie's on the 60-day IL. Could be 600, Brodie might as well add.
  4. G-Fafif
    Conforto's been symptom-free for three days, so that's not bad.

    Cespedes and Harvey were coming back from Duaner Sanchez's place for Dominican food on Cinco de Mayo.

    Needing to clarify whether a baseball player broke an ankle by falling off a horse is quite unusual in this century and the latter half of the last.
  7. G-Fafif
    Cespedes stepped in a hole, fractured an ankle. But damn he was good in 2015.

    "Mickey's our manager now, Mickey's our manager going forward," says Brodie. Poor Mickey.

    Brodie meeting with some players, per DiComo. Intrigue!
  11. G-Fafif
    Alderson met with the media, often informally out in the corridor between the clubhouse and the dugout, at the beginning of each homestand. I don't know if BVW has done that as a rule.

    Lugo to IL with shoulder tendinitis. Hector Santiago will be joining us.

    No Cano in tonight's lineup. McNeil 2B Rosario SS Davis LF Alonso 1B Ramos C Frazier 3B Gomez RF Lagares CF Font P
  14. G-Fafif
    Font will start. Why not?
  15. G-Fafif
    Games started by pitchers who are TBD five hours prior to first pitch are probably best enjoyed with a paperback on one's knee.

    Both felt too soon (though he was the reigning NL Rookie of the Year, if one can be said to reign as the winner of something you can't win again), but it was a thrill having a guy rushed onto national periodical covers. The SI one is classier. The TSN one suggests eastbound and westbound traffic coming in and out of Darryl's nostrils.

    As slow-burn disasters go, the Wilponization of the Mets is up/down there for sure (and I realize that's the point here). For football-to-the-groin off-field emotional distress, though, it's hard for me to get around the big three of the death of Gil Hodges, the trade of Tom Seaver and the announcement that Doc Gooden tested positive for cocaine the first time. Memo to Stockholm: This could be next season's Derby topic.

    Noted on telecast: first consecutive shutouts of Mets on two or fewer hits in 52 years.

    At the top of the broadcast, Howie addressed what he called the near "tangible" tension around Callaway's status, added that when you've been around a ballclub, you can tell these things are percolating and suggested that without winning a whole lot soon, Mickey's in real danger.
  21. G-Fafif
    Callaway/whoever hands the lineup to Callaway sends unmistakable message to Cano: get your act together or you'll sit...like Rosario.
  22. G-Fafif
    Echoes of not being able to touch the fetid Orioles last June.
  23. G-Fafif
    Braves change their mind, bring back Blevins.
  24. G-Fafif
    The ours... Jeff McNeil - LF Amed Rosario – SS Robinson Canó – 2B Pete Alonso - 1B Wilson Ramos – C Brandon Nimmo – RF Todd Frazier - 3B Juan Lagares – CF Steven Matz - LHP
  25. G-Fafif
    Sewald's visit brief, as he's sent down to make room for Matz.
