  1. The Mets have shut down Jorge Polanco. Surgery next. I don’t see why they wouldn’t call up Mauricio now.
  2. I think I read that the Mets had the hardest post-All-Star schedule of anyone in baseball. It's astonishing to think how poorly they played earlier this year against some of the worst competition. In April, they were swept at home by the A's and Rockies.
  3. Big start for Thornton. Has given up 3 runs in 3 of his last 4.
  4. WHAT TO DO WITH ALL THESE CLOSERS
  5. Who closes tonight? You figure Senga is unavailable.
  6. He couldn’t have come across more likeable.
  7. Part of the reason I always think it’s a good idea to sign Walker Buehler is that he pitches well every time I see him. And must suck all other times.
  8. I should be able to watch a few innings of this game tonight. Looking forward to it.
  9. Benge up to .757. Great defense too. Unfortunately Ewing has dropped to .705.
  10. David Stearns checks the CBA to see if this is allowed.
  11. Internet says his walkout song is Beat It by Michael Jackson.
  12. Kodai needs a cool entrance song. Cant do trumpets anymore. Does anyone know some cool French Horn songs?
  13. We have our 2027 1B. tell Stearns he can focus on other needs.
  14. Yup. I can definitely get behind that. You can even make up some bullshit excuse to justify it. "Keep pressure off his calf" etc. If we're opening up this thread to all suggestions, mine would be: 1. Shut down Jorge Polanco. Get him healthy for 2027 2. Shut down (or bench) Marcus Semien. We know what he is. We're just wasting ABs on him. 3. Ronny Mauricio plays every day. 4. Juan Soto at 1B. Let's see what he looks like. 5. Tell Francisco Alvarez to forget about framing. Concentrate all efforts on catching or blocking every pitch.
  15. Or to refute the draw of the UFC, peptides, T-Supplement, Joe Rogan crowd that is specifically targeting young white non-college educated males.
  16. Teriyaki Sato is a name I'd come up with if I didn't know any real japanese people and was forced to name one on the spot.
  17. He certainly doesn't seem to be healthy. He can't play the field. And he's stiff. Like those mid 50s guys that play softball. I guess if this is him healthy, then that's a bigger problem. I feel like Polanco is a guy who's shown us what he is. When healthy, he's a guy that will give you a mid to upper 700s OPS, and will play multiple positions, but none of them well. When he's not healthy, he's not productive. And he's usually not healthy. Even in 2025, his "healthy" season, he only played 138 games. I don't think anything he does these last 40 games should change how we view him for 2027. And I agree it's foolish to count on him as a starter. I think the focus should be to get him as healthy as possible, and hope he manages to stay on the field for 100 games or so.
  18. It occurs to me. Why are we even playing him? He’s struggling. He’s hurt. Mauricio is playing well in Syracuse. Shut down Polanco and let him get healthy for next year. Let’s give Ronny some consistent ABs.
  19. Put another way. If you asked Noah Syndergaard if he thought Somalis were "garbage people" I'm sure he'd vehemently disagree. And then be shocked that the President whose hat he wears had said such things.
  20. I just read the whole thing. This is exactly right. Especially the part about the hopes of a comeback. This poor guy felt like nothing his whole life, then his arm gave him his identity. And just like this his arm is gone, and his identity with it. The lure of MAGA is alluring for guys like Noah. Deep down, I'm sure he's a good guy. Just lost.
