Interesting how home field has been a factor the last two times we've had a legitimate ASG starter candidate. Harvey and Kershaw would have been close in any ballpark; same for deGrom and Scherzer. At least Roberts intends to use a Met at some point in the game, unlike Terry Collins in 2016.

    From Rosenthal: Jacob deGrom's agent Brodie Van Wagenen says his client "has expressed interest in exploring a long-term partnership that would keep him in a Mets uniform for years to come. If the Mets don't share same interest, we believe their best course of action is to seriously consider trade opportunities now. The inertia of current situation could complicate Jacob's relationship with the club and creates an atmosphere of indecision." This is what it sounds like when doves cry.

    Scherzer vs. Sale, with Dave Roberts announcing Jake will be first reliever in.

    Great to meet you, Doc, and as always, a pleasure to cross paths with Kase. Missed the national anthem, but was on hand for "New York Groove," which, in the end, is the song one wishes to be humming as exiting.

    Fuck yeah Carlos Baerga! Big part of the 1997 renaissance.

    Sing us a song, you're on the cover of Parade magazine this weekend wearing a Mets cap.

    Conlon optioned to accommodate the reThorization of the rotation.

    Reportedly Utley is announcing his retirement will be effective at season's end. Sorry, Jose's gotta keep playing.
  10. G-Fafif
    If Reyes were to retire ASAP, I prefer he say, "I did not get the idea from that creep Utley. In fact, outlasting him in this game is one of my most cherished achievements." And then the Mets sign Ruben Tejada to a one-day contract contingent on Ruben hunting Utley down and sliding into him.
  11. G-Fafif
    Utley U Buttley to address the media in L.A. later today to announce how much he sucks. Also, apparently, to hang up his dirty, dirty spikes.

    the team that I despise most of all in baseball Bob Carpenter and F.P. Santangelo presumably on the call for MASN.
  13. G-Fafif
    The rest of baseball resists the temptation to add Chris Beck to its ranks. Las Vegas is, thus, where he's at.

    Reyes 10-for-29 lifetime vs Scherzer. Anything that might screw up the Nationals ace and make him unable to start the ASG, thus clearing the way for deGrom, is welcome. Sitting a heating Rosario versus a great pitcher may be this year's answer to two years ago not sitting sitting a scalding Conforto versus Bumgarner, and Conforto cooling off that afternoon and for a while thereafter. Still seems weird.

    The Mets are currently on track for their worst season since 1993. Seven current Mets were born in 1993. [youtube:2pfcn9gn]2Py37G9qsfY[/youtube:2pfcn9gn] It's almost like 2018 is asking for this.
  17. G-Fafif
    Oh, and Rhame is beginning his sixth separate stint on the active roster tonight. Quite the stable outfit they're running out in Queens.
  18. G-Fafif
    We will accept Conlon in the satellite group that includes Terry Leach, Mike Birkbeck and Pedro Feliciano (twice) -- their stay as Mets interrupted by time in at least one other organization without having played for another MLB team in the interim. Conlon's asterisk is even fainter given that he never played in the minors for the Dodgers, either, but he did go out for that smoke. Assuming the starting lineup isn't a practical joke, tonight will make it 576 regular-season Mets games between Mets appearances for Matt (591, counting the Mets' fifteen den Dekkerless postseason games in 2015 and 2016). That puts MdD somewhere between Bobby Bonilla and Dave Kingman in the excused absence rankings.

    Drew leaves us as the 79th Met with exactly one RBI as a Met, but the only one of those with 0 AB as a Met. All hail the sacrifice fly!

    Thread title is the first baseman making an over-the-shoulder catch, bumping into the right fielder, spinning, throwing and nailing at home the runner attempting to tag up from third. Good one!

    Syndergaard on track to start Friday night vs. Nats should his Wednesday bullpen go well. Bruce's hip had a setback (it realized it was attached to Bruce). Jay will be shut down for ten days.
  24. G-Fafif
    In the last two days... Rhame up and down as 26th man Flexen down, Conlon up Frazier DL'd, Kelly up Beck DFA'd, Blevins reinstated Gagnon up; Sewald down Ty Kelly became the 46th Recidivist Met on Tuesday, the third this season, joining the raging success stories that are the second comings of Jay Bruce and Jason Vargas.
