  1. But, the catcher position is still an automatic out. Buck should have literally taken the bat out of Nido's hands with the count at 2-0.
  2. Travis Jankowski was DFA'd today by SEA.
  3. https://www.mlb.com/mets/rosterhttps://www.mlb.com/mets/roster I was trying to figure out how Dom could be added if only to play 1B and let Pete DH while keeping Ruf and Vogelbach's gloves in their lockers. The only way I can see it is to send down Givens or Hunter and I don't think that Buck would want to do so. Do you see a way?
  4. Edgy MD wrote: I'm guessing that for the Saturday double-header, we get to see Vogelbach break out his glove. Ruf-elbach are not good fielders. Good hitters but not good fielders. You're right, Pete should DH one of the games but Dom is not on the ML roster. Canha played 1B for an inning so he is a possibility.
  5. Great managing by Buck putting in the guy that will get sent down when Givens arrives in a tie game.
  6. Tim Britton in The Athletic: [bLOCKQUOTE]Why Darin Ruf makes sense for Mets Since their acquisition of Daniel Vogelbach 10 days ago, the Mets have been looking for a right-handed hitter to platoon with him at DH. Darin Ruf fits the bill, having made a career out of mashing left-handed pitchers. Ruf's career OPS versus southpaws is .929; it's .886 this season. J.D. Davis was supposed to fill that role himself, but he's shown reverse splits ever since 2019 and has struggled regardless of pitcher handedness this year. The Mets are taking a quantity approach with their prospect package, including pitchers Thomas Szapucki, Nick Zwack and Carson Seymour. Szapucki will be out of options next spring and New York recently moved him to the bullpen. Zwack and Seymour were draft picks last summer.[/bLOCKQUOTE]
  7. Darren Ruf, from SF for JD Davis and prospects. Ruf has an .886 OPS vs lefties this season. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darin_Rufhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darin_Ruf https://www.fangraphs.com/players/darin-ruf/9929/stats?position=1B/OFhttps://www.fangraphs.com/players/darin-ruf/9929/stats?position=1B/OF https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/r/rufda01.shtmlhttps://www.baseball-reference.com/players/r/rufda01.shtml Negative defensive WAR. It looks like Vogelbach and Ruf will platoon at DH. I have faith in Billy and Buck but is Ruf worth JD + 3 prospects? [bLOCKQUOTE]Joel Sherman @Joelsherman1 In 268 PAs since May 1, Darin Ruf: has slashline of: .286/.396/.529-.924OPS. 27 extra-base hits, including 13 HRs. #Mets[/bLOCKQUOTE]
  8. And SEA's TV PBP announcer is Dave Sims who is a Mets fan (per a recent conversation on the Tony Kornheiser podcast).
  9. Ex-Mets on the Mariners right now: Chris Flexen Paul Sewald Sam Haggerty Jared Kelenick (let's count him for this exercise) Travis Jankowski.
  10. Syndergaard might be traded. How about Noah + the difference between what the Mets were going to pay him and what LAA paid him for a middling prospect? He can pitch out the 'pen.
  11. Anyway... Trey Mancini to HOU Frankie Montas and Lou Trivino (RP) to NYY.
  12. =ashie62 post_id=101716 time=1659375537 user_id=90] This game looks real easy for the Mets. 12-1 easy.
  13. I will be at the games on Monday and Tuesday.
  14. =G-Fafif post_id=101627 time=1659281864 user_id=55] Day of rest for Starling.
  15. =Fman99 post_id=101620 time=1659264101 user_id=86] I had a good excuse to not IGT, I was once again at our local ballpark to soak up some AAA Mets action (they lost, 6-3).
  16. Edgy MD wrote: "THAT'S WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU PINCH-HIT ME AGAINST LEFTIES!!" — J.D. Davis, crushing He gave a slight glance toward the dugout. Perhaps he was looking at his teammates or perhaps he was thinking exactly this.
  17. The Mets even spotted them 3 runs and won.
  18. From what I'm reading, Naquin is a depth piece giving Buck options such as Naquin starting in the OF against a RHP and sitting Canha. Martino says it keeps McNeil at 2B instead of sometimes in LF so Guillorme can play 3B and Escobar can sit (which I'm not wild about but they didn't ask me). https://sny.tv/articles/mets-trade-analysis-tyler-naquin-phillip-diehl-martinohttps://sny.tv/articles/mets-trade-analysis-tyler-naquin-phillip-diehl-martino
  19. I got my hands up They're playin' "Meet The Mets" I know I'm gonna be OK Yeah, it's a Marte party in the USA Yeah, it's a Marte party in the USA

  21. What a boring team they have become and when Nido is your last hope you have no hope.
  22. =Fman99 post_id=100639 time=1658538053 user_id=86] Every hot girl sideline reporter is better than Gelbs. Including this girl.
  23. Nick Dini, C, former Royal, has left tonight's game for Syracuse. "Hey Dini, would you come out tonight? https://www.milb.com/player/nick-dini-664926https://www.milb.com/player/nick-dini-664926
  24. How about an inside-the-park grand slam?
