    Kaboom from Jose at least.

    6-2. And Dickey likely staying in to get that win. Knuckleballers' legs are different from yours and mine.

    Should have bunted on Dickey once it became obvious he couldn't get off the mound easily. One assumes he is gone now that he's done four innings. Snitker probably left him in to try for the win. Also, we're doomed.

    1-2-3 first innings from Harvey and Dickey have a habit of making me happy. Only one has a definite downside in the present scheme of things.
  7. G-Fafif
    At least it's not the one with Mad Dog.

    ESPN2 will simulcast MLBN's worst program, "Intentional Talk," the one with Kevin Millar and Chris Rose.

    Sounds like Syndergaard has come down with a case of weekend sports talk host -- Biceps Tendinitis on the FAN, Sixty-Six.... Harvey and Dickey were briefly part of the same rotation in 2012. Not as awesome as they were traded for each other, but maybe Matt can make it to 1:10 at least.

    Whoa, Jim Caple is among the axed. A brilliant writer -- as if that would make a difference.
  12. G-Fafif
    Dickey at Citi Field would be enough, but the Thor component makes it all the juicier. This may be the first pitching matchup I've woken up excited about simply on merit.

    The opposition: Inciarte CF Phillips 2B Freeman 1B Kemp LF Markakis RF Garcia 3B Flowers C Swanson SS Teheran P Pound for pound, perhaps the specifically Mets-killingest lineup in the National League that doesn't include Daniel Murphy.

    Tonight, tonight, will be a Gsellman night... Conforto CF Cabrera SS Cespedes LF Bruce 1B Walker 2B Granderson RF d'Arnaud C Reyes 3B Gsellman P

    One would figure the whole idea of having Jayson Stark is to keep Jayson Stark. Also gone from ESPN MLB coverage, thus far, are Mark Saxon and Jim Bowden. Richard Deitsch, who's been following the bloodletting for SI, reports ESPN may "outsource" its studio baseball shows from MLBN. So much for worldwide leading this sport.

    Before there were firecrackers, Coleman was messing up Doc with a golf club, and who is more likely to be swinging one of those in the clubhouse than Cespedes? T.J. no doubt offering tours of the Bronx already. Well-mannered tours of the Bronx, but still. And deGrom seems to have gone as long without a win as AY.

    Here's an overreaction: The Mets have the same record they had after nineteen games in 1993. They also have the same record they had after nineteen games in 1969, but that's not the season whose nah, they can't be THIS bad start I find myself thinking of the last few days. I remind myself that we have Thor, Jake and Harv...and then I remember twenty-four years ago we had Doc, Sabes and Sid, all ostensibly in their primes. There's every chance next 143 games will not reflect the previous nine.

    Meanwhile, in the other dugout... Eaton CF Turner SS Harper RF Zimmerman 1B Murphy 2B Rendon 3B Werth LF Wieters C Scherzer P

    After the sunny Sunday is blanketed in darkness, the Mets will try to light up the night with this lineup: Conforto LF Cabrera SS Bruce 1B Walker 2B Granderson RF Reyes 3B Plawecki C Lagares CF Wheeler P
  23. G-Fafif
    I have a hard time envisioning either Walker or Cabrera halting the path of a ground ball up the middle. They will confound those expectations now and then, but neither athlete seems what you'd call athletic.
  24. G-Fafif
    The Mets currently have the opposite of stage presence. It's stage absence. The Nationals are playing an invisible opponent that can't take advantage of their inability to be seen.
  25. G-Fafif
    A glitch in the otherwise finely tuned Schaefer brewery presents pitchers who don't pitch but hit or run -- Wheeler and Gsellman on April 21, for prime example -- as pitchers with non-existent pitching lines.
