Mickey always challenges when the runner tells him to and it's almost always wrong. Joel Sherman wrote today that Mickey could win Manager of the Year and he also could get fired. I'll take both.
How many times in Mets history has a pitcher earned a save and then a win in consecutive games? Probably more than one but let's find out if Sewald joins the list.

When McNeil and Nimmo return my guess is that Altherr and Flexen are sent back. If they return on Saturday then it's only 8 days until reinforcements can be added.
Thanks for the update. I will see them on Wednesday afternoon in Bowie (and I'm sitting in with the Baysox radio announcer during the 5th inning) so I needed a refresher). Thompson hit a few bombs early in ST. Tony Dibrell is starting for the RPs. He was an all-star season for Port St. Lucie this year but has struggled since moving up.
