  1. The team is playing tight. Afraid to make a mistake. Again the offense shows no sign of changing. Every day the same thing.
  2. It’s great that McLean and Sproat are friends. I mean it doesn’t mean anything as far as wins/losses, but kinda cool. Like Baty/Vientos/Alvarez. Really hoping that these guys work out. The only pitching prospect that has stuck in the last decade is Tylor Megill.
  3. I read something on twitter like: "She'll throw you out of the game for something you did 8 years ago". I laughed. Probably shouldn't have. All kidding aside, I hope she kicks ass. And I hope she takes the job of that ******* that did the Padres game.
  4. Good info. Can you tell me where you got those numbers? My thoughts. C: 24th This includes a lot of unproductive Luis Torrens. It's unlikely Alvarez will stay as hot as he is, but you figure we'll be better from here on out. 1B: 7th Likely stay the same. Hopefully we won't fall off. 2B: 21st You figure with McNeil getting more time there, this will go up for the last 2 months. 3B: 20th Will likely stay the same. SS: 13th This is the big surprise. Hopefully the toe is healed and he gets hot for the last two months. LF: 8th Hopefully stays the same. CF: 29th Mullins isn't great, but he should be better than this. RF: 5th Will hopefully be better than he has been so far. DH: 12th This is a surprise. I didn't think we'd be this high. I'm not sure we'll do much better than this.
  5. That's the most infuriating part of all this. It's not as if we have Eric Campbell or James Loney out there. How can a group that is this talented put up such middling results? It's almost incomprehensible that a team with Lindor, Soto, Alonso can be league average. Obviously I don't know what's going on behind the scenes, but this is too large a sample size to call it bad luck or a rough stretch. At the end of the day, either the message is wrong, or the messenger is ineffective at delivering it.
  6. The Mullins trade suggests they’re out on Taylor. With Vientos, I’m guessing they’re just hoping one of Vientos, Baty and Mauricio will get hot. If it were me, I’d DH Vientos every day for August. He has the best track record. If he earns it, he keeps it. If he’s still ass at the end of august you back burner him.
  7. And speaking of this **** offense. We figured that the gap between their OPS and OPS with RISP would eventually close, but it hasn't gone the direction we wanted. The Mets are 12th in overall OPS (.725), 15th in runs scored, and 17th in OPS with RISP. As of May 22, the Mets were 9th in overall OPS, and 24th in OPS with RISP. So while their performance with RISP has gone up, their overall hitting has gone down. It's just a league average offense. Crazy to think that's possible given the talent on this roster.
  8. In this brutal stretch where they've lost 8 of 9 games: *It's the fault of the offense: The offense has failed to score more than two runs 4 times, scoring 0, 1, 1, and 2 runs in 9 games. In one additional game, they tacked on 2 garbage time runs in the 9th to lose 12-4. *It's the fault of the starting pitching: The starting pitching hasn't been great. In 5 of the last 9 games, starters have given up 4 runs or more (Montas, Holmes, Senga, Montas again, Peterson today). Thankfully the bullpen has been ok. The bullpen lost us 2 games during this stretch and both of those guys aren't here anymore. Brazoban blew up the first game in San Diego, Butto blew up the second, but we only scored 1 run anyway, so it probably didn't make a difference. You figure the starting pitching will get a little better. But who knows with this **** offense.
  9. OPS last 30 days. Juan Soto .681 Francisco Lindor .654 Brandon Nimmo .671 Pete Alonso .636 Jeff McNeil .682 Brett Baty .718 Ronny Mauricio .723 Mark Vientos .742 Tyrone Taylor .400 The one exception is the guy that got sent down. Francisco Alvarez .919
  10. The problem is they have three games coming up in Milwaukee. And the pitching matchups suggest getting even one is going to be extremely difficult. They're already down 4-0 in the Saturday game.
  11. This team is an embarrassment.
  12. =Gwreck post_id=200429 time=1754450159 user_id=56] =Centerfield post_id=200427 time=1754448467 user_id=65]Unfortunately there's no hitter that's ready enough to call up to get them going.
  13. They've been a shitty team for a long time. And there's no sign of change. No life. No spark. They could us a shakeup. Unfortunately there's no hitter that's ready enough to call up to get them going.
  14. Gwreck was right. Offense needed to be addressed.
  15. Yup. The mascot will be a giant potato named "Spud".
  16. Really? Tyrone Taylor? Cedric Mullins has reverse splits this year. Or just let Ronny get some RH at-bats and put McNeil in center. Holmes is a sinker ball pitcher anyway. I'm so fucking irritated with this team. They've been shitty for a month and a half.
  17. Same with the Rocchio dive. Gotta off on contact. Make him throw home. You still have the runner on third with two outs. Everyone on this team is a fucking pussy.
  18. =ashie62 post_id=200294 time=1754359325 user_id=90] Lindor had his head in the clouds But overall just very sloppy baseball
  19. Honestly would be fine never seeing Baty again. His mini hot streaks aren't enough to justify his terrible slumps. Complete bust.
  20. So many chances. Shoulda had more in the 8th. Shoulda had one in the 9th. Bad error in the 10th. Can't do that.
  21. Baty should never see the field again.
  22. Some awful situational hitting there.
  23. I don't understand how this offense can be so bad for the entire season.
  24. Edgy MD wrote: Well, it ain't like he saw one today. Yes. But he was in one Friday night in a game where we had compiled a super pen and were coming off an off day. He gave up a run. We lost in extras. The team is struggling. You can't have the manager making things worse. Mendy also started Tyrone Taylor, even though Mullins has reverse splits this year, and good numbers against Ray. And of course the PH of Vientos.
