    Jomboy breaks down the aftermath of Jesse Winker's triple:

    There are a lot good candidates to be runners-up to Gary… except for Skip Carey who might have been the worst announcer in history. He's the worst Carey (other than Harry) and that's saying a lot. He's the worst Braves announcer in the last 20 years and that's saying a lot.

    Congratulations to Country Squires, CPF 2024 Champion!!!

    3 career steals before 2024. 14 steals in 2024.

    Pete is 6th on the Mets in WAR. Lindor is the only player in the top 20 of fWAR not to make it. MLB gave the 3d SS spot to Abrams to fill the WSH slot and needed a 1B + HR Derby participant so they picked Pete even though there were FIVE better choices.

    As of Monday, I think we can anticipate a RP (Sulser?) for Megill as the Mets have another day off on Thursday so Megill's services won't be needed for a few days (if at all). We should hear about Marte's status so there might be a new OFer on the roster.

    It's possible (and perhaps paranoid) that Tomas Nido “dropped a dime” on Diaz. I've wondered if the Dodgers did the same with Scherzer.

    =kcmets post_id=160226 time=1719260094 user_id=53] There is basically nothing new in that story. Nothing.

    [bLOCKQUOTE]Balls and strikes, too, are the umpire's opinion in the end, but your point stands.[/bLOCKQUOTE] Thanks... I was thinking of checked swings and the future "challenge system".

    The Mets have DFA'd Joe Hudson.

    The picture above is meaningless without comparisons to acceptable sticky hands or even his hand the last time he pitched. The fact that it is subjective is what is most troubling here. Everything else in baseball is defined: fair or foul, safe or out, ball or strike, but this decision is in the umpire's opinion. Here, Carapazza said he's done this a lot and knows what too much is. OK, but what's the criteria? How does he know? It shouldn't depend on the umpire--it should be a defined standard. The Mets will appeal but Manfred won't have the spine to contradict the umpires so the Mets have to play short for 10 games due to an umpire's opinion based on undefined criteria.

    Broderick was recently on the West End in "Plaza Suite" with his wife, Sarah Jessica Parker. The first pitch on Sunday will be the responsibility of Rob McElhenney.

    DiComo: "News: Daniel Murphy defeated Chase Utley in the home run derby at Trafalgar Square in London." I hope that immediately following his defeat, Utley was taken to the Tower of London and beheaded.

    Torrens provides some roster flexibility as he has played 1B, 2B, 3B, and LF while Nido is only a C.

    A torren-tial blast!

    There is a flood watch for DC. With the Mets' flight to London after the game (and the Mets returning in July) I don't expect them to wait too long to "bang" this one.

    Trevor Williams to the IL so DJ Herz ("DJ Herz in the house!") will make his ML debut tonight (LHP): https://www.mlb.com/player/dj-herz-687792https://www.mlb.com/player/dj-herz-687792

    =bmfc1 post_id=157510 time=1717331159 user_id=73] The Mets and PHI can add a 27th player for the London series but it must be a hitter (at least theoretically, by Mets standards). I'm guessing that they will activate Francisco Alvarez.

    DiComo: Reed Garrett, called upon to finish this one off in the ninth, has his own (temporary) closer's entrance now. The lights flashed off and Kid Rock's "Bawitdaba" is blasting at Citi Field. And to think I liked Reed Garrett.

    Benjamin Grimm wrote: Scott is a little bit of a surprise. (And so is Baty, for that matter.) Is Butto coming back? The Mets have Thursday and Friday off for the London series as well as the following Monday. Scott could have pitched Tuesday in WSH but I guess they have other ideas. Perhaps he will pitch the first game back (June 11). They lose the big stipend for the trip. I've read that the LAD and SD players got about $70,000 (maybe more) for the South Korea trip.

    It would be... something if one of the networks hired him as the "Rules Expert".

    MLB could put the 10th inning runner halfway between 3d and home and the Mets wouldn't score.
