    I read someplace that if they call up Mauricio again, then that's it. He's out of options. Could certainly affect that decision. Vidal Brujan has a .623 OPS in Syracuse. He had a .616 OPS across 3 teams last year. It's not great, but it's at least 100 points better than we're getting from Semien.

    The Cubs pitchers for this series aren't all that scary. A good team should be able to score enough runs to win. Hopefully the Mets will start acting like a good team and turn it around. Sweep the Cubs here and it's a successful road trip. Take 2 of 3 and it's at least not a disaster.

    There are four reliables on this team. Lindor, Soto, and Bichette you figure will be good. Semien you can assume will be bad. Everyone else is a question mark. Polanco, Baty, Alvarez, Vientos, Benge, Robert. All of them could have a .650 OPS or an .850 OPS or anywhere in between.

    One of the intangibles of managing is figuring out how to get the most of the guys that are suiting up. In almost every MLB game, the team you field has a chance to win. Multiple long losing streaks suggest a manager that does not know how to stop the bleeding and rally his guys to get one win, take a breath, and play to their ability. For far too long, four months and counting, the Mets have played below their ability. I said in one of the game threads that it was a bad sign that the team just rolled over when they got down early. But then they fought back (I think this is the Saturday A’s game). But then the next day, when it was a close game, the bats went silent again. nothing is definitive, but this appears to me like a team that is pressing, and can only score when the pressure is lifted. Kinda like the 9th inning yesterday. A good manager, in my book, finds a way to left that pressure, even when the stakes are high.

    I’m on record saying I think Mendy is not the right guy. problem is I’m so discouraged by what I’m seeing that I don’t think it will make a difference.

    Btw. I love that Ronnie is doing the broadcast. He’s just a great analyst.
  7. Centerfield
    Predictable. big spot for Lindor.
  8. Centerfield
    Wish we had a PH for Oham.
  9. Centerfield
    MELENDEZ FOR MVP
  10. Centerfield
    Omg. What are you doing this fucking team.
  11. Centerfield
    A leadoff walk!
  12. Centerfield
    You have to go back to the second game of the Oakland series to find that second run.
  13. Centerfield
    Wow!!! luis Robert!!!
  14. Centerfield
    If I’m looking for positives, that was a nice hit by Melendez and a good AB by Lindor. maybe some “green shoots”

    Not a clue in terms of moves. It’s not as if moving around the .500 OPS guys will make a difference. No one on the bench has earned more time and no one in Syracuse seems to be ready. If I were in charge I would be rethinking whatever organizational philosophy we are promoting. When everyone is struggling it suggests a problem with approach. also, I’d sit Semien in favor of almost anyone
  16. Centerfield
    His voice seems to have lost something from his prime. It’s too bad. Like him too.
  17. Centerfield
    Second inning.
  18. Centerfield
    “Mets go down in order…” rinse. Repeat.
  19. Centerfield
    Um. Sue Simmons. I did not realize…
  20. Centerfield
    My take on Baty is that he starts slow. If it’s like other years, he’ll get hot later on. (then cool off, then maybe pick it up again)
  21. Centerfield
    Benge has a chance to drive in Benge if Benge can reach.
  22. Centerfield
    Was one of the most productive Mets early season. Of our top 4 OPS leaders, Soto and Young are now on the IL. Alvarez is the active leader (.943) followed by Luis Robert (.764) Lindor is third (.604). Everyone else is below .600.
  23. Centerfield
    The good news. Lindor is out of the .500 club and now has an OPS of .607. Bad news is Semien might exit the other way. His OPS is down to .508. Vientos continues to struggle and has entered the .500 club. Lindor: .607 (up) Bichette: .578 (up) Semien: .508 (down) Baty: .520 (down) Polanco: .532 (down) Vientos: .596 (down) Benge still hasn’t cracked .500 (.440). Robert has fallen back to .764. Bad strikeout last night. The Mets have a .625 team OPS. That is 28th in MLB.
  24. Centerfield
    Two late nights. Not sure how much of this one I’ll catch.
  25. Centerfield
    That was as pathetic an offensive effort as I can remember. We scored a run. Which seems like an improvement. But just nonstop no competitive ABs.
