    Heard the Cheetos are throwing a lefty. I called Wilmer Flores' mom but she says he has another game.

We're, like, slightly less than 50-50 for this, methinks. Just do it. Have a beer with us. There is an outdoor cafe right next to the field.

    My kids are 11. So 11's are fine. Baseball ability is optional. We'd love to have mini-Wolf.

    I was thinking it would be nice to get some photos of the event. Man. If only there were members of this board that knew how to handle a camera...

    Oh crap. RMPL.

    WEST SIDE VERSUS BROOKLYN!!! LUNCHPAIL VERSUS MINIFIELD!!! MORE ACTION THAN YOU CAN POSSIBLY HANDLE!!!! Well, maybe I exaggerated the action a little bit. Anyway, JCL and I have arranged an informal scrimmage between our boys' little league teams. It should be a lot of fun. This Sunday (May 21) at 4 p.m. at the Riverside Field. (entrance is on 103rd Street and Riverside Drive). Rumor is that the coaches may or may not have a beer at the outdoor cafe right afterwards. In the area? Stop by and say hello. Got a 10, 11 or 12 year old who plays? Suit him/her up and get into the game! (I'm looking at you Mini-Wolf!) Shoot me a PM if you want to stop by. I'll send you my contact info.

The good news, such as it is, is that the Mets have plenty of time to turn this around. It doesn't seem at all likely that they'll do that, but there's that old axiom about how you're never as bad as you look while you're losing. I expect that there are better days ahead this season, but I also doubt that the wins to come will be enough to propel them into the post-season. Right? I know it's reactionary to write off a team in May, but sheesh. 5 games under, 8 games back. Everyone and their mother injured. How do you come back from this? And the farm system is basically tapped other than Rosario and Smith.

    I've never seen anything like this.

    Robles keeps pointing to the sky on those bombs as if to signal a pop up. I think if he started circling that finger it would be more accurate. I can't remember a tougher stretch as a Mets fan.

Nothing will beat playing shorthanded for a week before putting David Wright on the DL. There has to be some sort of formula for number of games played shorthanded measured against time actually spent on the DL. David, I'm sure, would hold that record.

    No words really. Wondering how it got this bad.

    One of them plays in a stadium built for full grown adults.

    Yeah it looks like Gsellman is just not that good. The question was whether last year was an awakening or fluke. It looks like it was a fluke.
  14. Centerfield
    Would go a long way to explaining why he struggles when used 3 straight days. I hear it blocks oxygen? So the recuperation is tougher.
  15. Centerfield
    I think Dillon Gee had this many years ago and missed the rest of the season. I feel like that was in the second half though, so maybe Familia can come back for August/September.
  16. Centerfield
    Man, we are going to be awesome in September. 25 games out by then, but awesome.
  17. Centerfield
    Per Ken Rosenthal on twitter. Not sure what this means, but it sounds bad.

    Wait, so the Brazilian model who serially dates professional athletes move on (or back) to another athlete? Shocking. I don't think any of us could have seen this coming. What the hell Matt. Don't be the douchebag in the crew that actually falls for the stripper. My god.

    But point taken, that yes, there are lots of fingers to point in that game. Not scoring against that Giants bullpen being front and center. Not saying it's all on Terry, just that he contributed.

    There were numbers last year that showed how much Familia's productivity dropped when used 3 straight nights. And yes, the argument is that a closer has to be available three straight days, but if you know this about him, there is no reason to pitch him the night before in a 6-1 game. I don't know that the result would have been different. But you have to optimize your chances. Our manager did not do that. It's the same thing about Maddon in Game 6. That the Cubs ultimately won the series doesn't mean that was the right move.

    This whole Wilk trek is why you just cannot have your Triple A franchise in LV if you play in NY. This distance has had a tangible effect on many games and it's foolish to put yourself at such a disadvantage. I remember reading a few years ago that teams that were closer had soured on the Mets for some reason. Not sure why, but I'm sure Jeff Wilpon is part of the reason. (only half kidding here) I hope that when their contract runs out, we can relocate to Syracuse or someplace along the east coast. Thanks for the effort Adam. It was a tough task. Especially for someone that's not really good at pitching.

    The bullpen mismanagement started last night.

    I don't know how any of you guys are holding it together. I'm outright sobbing just reading this thread.

    Paraphrasing Pedro, he only needs him to miss it by a dime.
