    This is just wrong. You get a guy named Jefforson Escorcha, and you keep him for the full six years. Especially if he's a lefty reliever with a career minor league ERA of 1.90 https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=escorc000jefhttps://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=escorc000jef Later

    =batmagadanleadoff post_id=69084 time=1624641720 user_id=68] Cano's a sunk cost who's PT is now very expendable going forward with Lindor now a Met.

    According to Amazing Avenue, Mason Williams has elected free agency rather than report to Syracuse. Later

    Interesting. What was wrong with the food? From Tim Britton's Twitter: NEWS: This afternoon the Mets fired four clubhouse assistants and their long-time clubhouse chef. A team spokesman confirmed the firings and said, "We do not comment on personnel matters, except to confirm this had nothing to do with the WilmerHale culture review." https://twitter.com/timbritton/status/1407858573053337600?s=21https://twitter.com/timbritton/status/1407858573053337600?s=21 I'm guessing they were either stealing from the players' lockers or asking the players to autograph stuff and then selling it.

    Top catching prospect Francisco Alvarez was taken out mid-game last night and is not in tonight's starting lineup. When he doesn't start behind the plate, he has been the DH. Was he injured? I haven't seen anything about it. Later

    Bartolo still might be an improvement over the current hitters. Later

    One starting pitcher option is off the table, as for Mets minor leaguer Mickey Janis has been purchased and brought to the majors by Baltimore. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/orioles-finally-call-knuckleball-pitcher-220218219.htmlhttps://www.yahoo.com/sports/orioles-finally-call-knuckleball-pitcher-220218219.html He's only knuckleball pitcher in baseball.

    With all the doubleheaders coming up, I wonder if they'll let Peterson stay in beyond the ritualistic "two times around the batting order"? Later

    Frayed Knot wrote: The thing is, these 7 inning games, along with declaring extra-innings to now be illegal, give teams even more of an incentive to schedule split DH's since they can slate the start times closer together. Only five hours separate first pitch of Games 1 & 2 tomorrow. With 9 innings and the mere threat of Xtras, they'd be taking a huge risk trying to schedule that close and still give themselves time to clear, clean, then refill the house. And they're probably hoping they can squeeze both games into less than eight hours (total elapsed time) so they don't have to pay staff (grounds crew, ushers, vendors, etc) overtime. Cheap bastages.

    Illuminating for sure. Those tests have used up enough electricity to light up CitiField. Later

    Betances gave up 5 ER in 1/3 IP at low A St. Lucie in his first rehab appearance last night. Unless he can prove in a few more appearances that was just "getting the rust out", maybe early July is optimistic. And even if he does, his recent major league performance doesn't guarantee they'll bring him up. Later

    Baseball Reference has announced that the Negro Leagues will be considered Major Leagues and their statistics have been included in their site. Here is the link to the announcement and links to the statistics. https://www.baseball-reference.com/negro-leagues-are-major-leagues.shtmlhttps://www.baseball-reference.com/negro-leagues-are-major-leagues.shtml Later
