  1. Infield back. Bunt, Rosario.
  2. Yeah, no, I voted for sticking their head out and signing all three. Fuck me, but I want the chips down and down on those guys. One meaningful factor is that, with Wright retiring, deGrom and Syndergaard are positioned to take up the "Face of the Franchise" mantle. I'll put the money down: deGrom: Three years, $70 million, with an option for a fourth year at the same rate, that automatically vests after 75 starts. Syndergaard: Three years, $60 million, with an option for a fourth year at the same rate, that automatically vests after 75 starts. Wheeler: Three years, $50 million, with an option for a fourth year at the same rate, that automatically vests after 75 starts. Yeah, I know deGrom is going to want more than three years guaranteed — all of them will — but I open there.
  3. Holy shit. Too many music films to choose from.
  4. Josh Lewin himself said that it took a letter-writing campaign for WOR to include him when they took the Mets over from WFAN. CBS, like FAN, is headed by Mark Chernoff, who presumably hired Lewin originally, but Lewin fans may want to warm up their pens one more time.
  5. 41Forever wrote: Lock them up! Elite starting pitching is the toughest thing to find in baseball. I think the Mets will try to extend all three and build around them. I don't know if this is necessarily true or not, but to the extent that I think it is, I think it's even truer to say that elite starting pitching is the toughest thing to sustain, which is why teams fear to tread where fans rush in.
  6. I'd have trouble giving them all identical contracts, given differences in consistency, age, and injury history, but sure. So far it's uncontroversial (five out of five voters) that all should be offered extensions, budgets be damned, and I guess the risk is somewhat cancelled out in the redundancy. Anybody want to lay out what size contracts they are willing to proffer?
  7. The only better news would have been WOR changing their programming format.
  8. Think of the motivation it would be for Matzy if they all cash in around the same time.
  9. I would beg the incoming GM of the Mets to make his or her first order of business locking up Jake deGrom, Noah Syndergaard, and Zack Wheeler. At the same time, I kno, that extensions, like any longterm contract, comes with the strong possibility of a team with a limited budget (and all teams have that) eating some serious shit as the contract progresses. Also, even short-term, nailing all three down could hamper the team's ability to improve the offense. That said, I would beg the incoming GM of the Mets to make his or her first order of business locking up Jake deGrom, Noah Syndergaard, and Zack Wheeler. So if you're that guy, and you hear me begging, what do you do?

  10. It's not hard for me.
  11. Here's to Nimmo running far more effectively.
  12. Curious that Mick E. went with him instead of Reyes.
  13. Reiny has egg on his face.

  15. Strikeouts by Mets' Pitcher in a Season 1) Tom Seaver, 1971: 289 2) Tom Seaver, 1970: 283 3) Dwight Gooden, 1984: 276 Jacob deGrom, Projected to End of Season: 273.32 4) Dwight Gooden, 1985: 268 T5) Jacob deGrom, 2018: 250 T5) Tom Seaver, 1973: 251 7) Tom Seaver, 1972: 249 8) Tom Seaver, 1975: 243 9) David Cone, 1991: 241 10) Jacob deGrom, 2017: 239
  16. They finally get two runs for deGrom, but on a day when he needeth four. Keep the heat on, men.
  17. And down goes Betz. Hopefully more precautionary than anything.
  18. Hey, Jackson! Run! Hey, Rosario! Run!
  19. The elimination number is down to one in the division race and three in the Wild Card race. Don't go softly.
  20. Centerfield wrote: I keep telling myself that draft order matters little in baseball. But man I see this list and think all these assholes get to pick ahead of us. Draft order does mean something, but winning has a value going forward as well.
  21. So, 0-16 is what we have to save him from. Maybe Mick can only put him in games with a one-run deficit until the end of the season.
  22. Paul Sewald now at 0-12 on his big league career. Worst winless hole in MLB history?
  23. The Braves are up 7-4 on the Nats in the top of the seventh. If they hang on, the Mets' elimination number will drop to two, but the Nats are rallying.
  24. Bruce is sure bringing top-shelf garbage right now.
