    Someone like, say, Mendoza?

    It was inevitable. It was preordained.

    Thru 9 innings, Mets are 2/9 w/RiSP, 13 LOB. Cubs are 3/8 with just 5 LOB
  4. Frayed Knot
    The Philles have scored 15 9th inning runs since Tuesday [8 + 2 + 5] The Mets have scored 14 9th inning runs THIS SEASON Just sayin'
  5. Frayed Knot
    14 of the Mets last 17 runs have come via HRs [6 solo HRs, four 2R HRs] The other three cam on a one RBI single and a two RBI single back on Tuesday.

    Second two-out bases loaded opportunity of the game. Let's see if we can cash one of these in before the month of June ends. NOPE!!!
  7. Frayed Knot
    The Mets/Mauricio tried their hardest to hit into a GiDP on their second opportunity of the game to do so but the Cubs screwed up their plans.
  8. Frayed Knot
    I bet we don't
  9. Frayed Knot
    And the Cubs get the first two-out run scoring hit on their first opportunity and now on their second as well while the Mets are oh-for-3 in those situations stranding six. This kind of stuff is becoming so predictable that it's like the fix is in.

    I feel like we need one of those factory/warehouse signs concerning injury prevention. New York Mets: Five Zero innings without an infield error!

    Mets have been getting killed lately in giving up big hits with two outs and runners on. So tonight they're the ones who load the bases with two outs in the 3rd (foul out) and put two on with 2 outs in the 4th (weak grounder). Flip the script and we'd likely be down 4 or 5 (or 7) nothing.
  12. Frayed Knot
    And in the very first opportunity to his into a GiDP the Mets hit into a GiDP The Mets are 7th highest in MLB in hitting into GiDPs. Stats like these are tough to judge sometimes because they lack context. One would really need to know the ratio between GiDPs and the total number of base/out situations in which it was possible to hit into one [1 - 0 - 0; 1 - 1 -0; 1 - 1 -1; 1 - 0 - 1; with 0 or 1 outs] and that data doesn't seem to be readily available. But, considering their low OBP/amount of baserunners, it means they certainly into more than their share.

    One inning and, so far, no infield errors!!
  14. Frayed Knot
    I don't usually keep track of these things the way a lot of youse guyz do, but when was the last time they wore their home whites? I'm not superstitious or anything, but if I had lost 23 straight (or whatever it is) I'd probably ditch the blue tops which they've been wearing a lot lately (both home and road) and tonight they've gone to the blacks.

    The 5-1/3 scoreless (3 hits) innings in relief over two games vs Philly in the NLDS The return from the hip issue that seemed to cure his wildness (particularly high/arm-side) and led him to a 2025 All-Star nod and a 15-5 record with a low 3's ERA from the beginning of '24 thru mid-'25 ... and then it all fell apart with seemingly no cause or explanation.
  16. Frayed Knot
    So with just nine days to go until the calendar turns to July, the Lindor/Soto in the same lineup total still has yet to hit double digits.
  17. Frayed Knot
    With Mauricio up and Baty losing first dibs at 3B there's no reason to take Ewing out of CF ... not that there was reason anyway.
  18. Frayed Knot
    Right now the Cubs have so many of their own pitchers on the IL that they're in need of Anyone, and I assume that's what triggered this deal. Peterson, who will turn 31 before the season is out, is going to be a FA at the end of the year and the combo of the age and a lousy season makes it unlikely that the Mets would try to sign him anyway. So maybe the Cubs' short term desperation enticed them to offer a better prospect than a guy in his Peterson's would normally command prompting Stearns to strike while the offer was on the table even as it puts the Mets short by one more arm themselves.

    Cole Mathis, 2024 2nd round draft pick out of College of Charleston (I think that's in Charleston), turns 23 y/o in a few weeks. 6' 2" / 210, R/R, listed in BB-Ref as 1B/DH/P though has played some 3B too. Hasn't pitched at all since turning pro so I suspect that's in his rearview. Only played 29 games in 2025 (not sure why) plus some AZ fall league action. Has split '26 between low and high A with combined stats of: .272/.396/..585 so, yeah, that's a lot of slug and a lot of walks. But again it's only 39 G/192 PAs so you'd like to know the story behind all that so if anyone is passing through South Bend, where he's currently plying his trade, drop by a game, snoop around a bit, and let us know what you find. https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=mathis000col

    I think Lindor has swung at every pitch thrown his way tonight (except that one).
  21. Frayed Knot
    The tying run in on double deck.
  22. Frayed Knot
    A playoff caliber team??? This isn't a major league caliber team!
  23. Frayed Knot
    NYM with fewer than 15 RBIs this season!!!! ... the same number as Dansby Swanson has in this (not yet completed) series. MJ Melendez, Jared Young, Luis Robert, Francisco Lindor, Jorge Polanco, Ronny Mauricio, Hayden Senger, Eric Wagaman, Andy Ibanez (who?), Austin Slater, Vidal Brujan, Tommy Pham, Nick Morabito, Zack Short
  24. Frayed Knot
    This Ramirez rookie has three hits tonight and I don't know that the exit velocities add up to 100 mph
  25. Frayed Knot
    Not ruled an error by Benge, but there's no way that's going to come back to bite us, eh?
