The Reds return to Citi Field following a Braves series that saw the dis-spiriting reality of the team taking a modest step forward in their quality of play, only to still lose three of four. Mets bring Noah Syndergaard to the mound. Reds counter with Homer Bailey who, despite being among baseball's biggest albatross contracts the last four years, but has been pitching reasonably well of late. The big question as these two bottom feeders clash for dominance of the bottom: Will there be a Matt Harvey scoreboard video tribute? SvkWUsv9mz8

A Met legacy from the Bronx, and he looked good in the shower. I sure don't say too many bad things about Johnny Monell. I wonder if John Maine's father ever played with Johnny Monell's father in the Mets' system.

There's a salary cap?

Cubs lose to the Padres as Anthony Rizzo goes down looking at strike three, which is better described as "strike three." Guess who was working home plate. [tweet:1ate94bf] [/tweet:1ate94bf]

He may have had his arm twisted by MLB, but it's hard to view Sandy as anything but an A-lister, and he certainly didn't have the banks open for him when he arrived. I think any number of people will be interested. The jobs are too hard to come by and no few of them will come with smaller budgets than the Mets throw around. And I imagine heavy handed owners and presidents abound also.

Tommy Tanous! Josh Byrnes! LEIGH CASTERGINE!

It's the hand, foot, and mouth disease. One guy catches it, and it mutates into a virus of chumpism that sweeps the clubhouse.

2015 backup catcher Johnny Monell, after also giving it one last try in Vegas, also becomes one of the Mets in retirement in 2018.

Why would anybody dump Wheeler?

Man, the way they're watching that hook for called strikes is eating me up.

C'mon! Pinch-run with deGrommie!

I'd like to pinch run, but only Guillorme is on the bench.

OK, 591 career homers due up in the bottom of the 10th.

Don't look at me. Bashlor wasn't my idea.

Total homer!! How did I miss that?

Great swing, Raco, but how are you not on third?

Sweet curve, Loogie.

The holes are back in the Mets' bats.

How about Reyes quitting on that bloop by Markakis?

Gary and Keith still tearing down Terry on a hot mic as they cut to a commercial.

Blurp.

Bad baserunnng by Wilmer, but he almost broke his leg on that bat.

That Lou Brock graphic was great.
