Strange to see Cleon Jones joining a mound conference. He made 15 appearances at first in 1969 and 20 more in 1972 and that was it.

The Ponies beat the New Hampshire Fisher Cats 8-5 last night. The 2-3-4 hitters for the Toronto-affiliated Cats were Bo Bichette, Vladimir Guererro, Jr., and Cavan Biggio, whose fathers combined to hit 1,014 big league homers.

Rehabbing Jason Vargas starts tonight at home for Las Vegas. Hopefully, he doesn't run into the same conditions that has already ended to A.J. Griffin's tenure in the organization after two games, gotten Mickey Jannis demoted, and left P.J. Conlon utterly powerless (double-digit ERA through three starts!!) Vegas has stumbled to 2-5 over the last week, losing the last four in a row, giving up nine or more runs in seven of the last nine games. In short, they're not getting anybody out. It's a testimony to how otherworldly hot Ty Kelly's start was that his OPS now sits at a healthy .917 after going 1-for-his-last-24. Zach Borenstein (.323 / .440 / .581 // 1.021) remains the anchor of the lineup, with Bryce Brentz joining the show of late, hitting three homers this week after a frigid start. Tim Peterson is the bullpen ace, striking out 19 in 10 innings, to the tune of a 1.80 ERA, with outfielder Matt den Decker and reserve catcher Colton Plaia each having appeared in two games yielding no runs in four innings total. But when position players are pitching, nothing is really all that good, and the 51s are already 8.0 games out, in last place in the PCL's Pacific Southern Division. Tonight, it's the first place El Paso Chihuahuas nipping at their ankles, so wish Vargas all the luck he can handle. He'll need it.

I finally got one in regulation time. With 44 seconds to spare, even. Lowest strikeout rates among Mets batters over a season. https://www.amazinavenue.com/2018/4/23/17261162/new-york-mets-trivia-lowest-strikeout-rate-hitters

I'm curious how close Matz is to following Harvey into the pen.

I sure remember it that way.

Harvey's heart is the real puzzle to be solved. He seemed miserable long before he got this lost.

Straw won Rookie of the Year in 1983. Hernandez won his sixth consecutive Gold Glove. Orosco, though, was a living object lesson in the ambiguities of awards and honors. He finished third in Cy Young Award voting (deservedly, to this observer), and 17th in MVP voting (ahead of Hernandez or Strawberry), but lost out on the Rolaids Relief Award to Al Holland. I'd cry bias for the Wheeze Kids Phillies, but the RRA wasn't based on voting, but rather on a crude formula (two points for a save, two points for a relief win, minus one point for a relief loss). This allowed Holland to edge Orosco, 62-53, despite an ERA .79 runs higher and 19 1/3 fewer innings pitched.

Yoenis speculates that a lack of golf can be prolonging his slump. [fimg=500]https://static01.nyt.com/images/2018/04/23/sports/23mets1-print/23mets1-print-master675.jpg[/fimg]

Yeah, Keith is squinting into sunlight but the other two aren't. It's pretty sloppy.

And today, David Peterson has been matched by 2016 first round pick Anthony Kay. The lefthander picked up his first professional victory today, throwing six shutout innings against Hickory, yielding just three hits and a walk while striking out five. The performance lowered the Stony Brook native' ERA to 1.69, with opponents hitting .164 against him through 16 innings. Two perfect innings from Carlos Hernandez and one more from Trey Cobb finished up the show for the Fireflies. Through 71 plate appearances, Columbia secondbaseman Blake Tiberi is reaching base at a .465 clip.

Mets are 4-1 in games started by Nimmo, the only loss being the bullpen-blown walky-walky game to the Nats.

Yeah, Ramos definitely got Swarzak's call last night.

Last time I saw a grounder up the middle for a triple was George Stone at Veteran's Stadium on astroturf. Heaven knows where Conforto was playing.

Well, he hit the stitches off that ball anyway.

That got fugly fast.

3-0. Fart me to Alaska.

Good turnaround after the visit from the coach. One out. No man is an Eiland, my ass.

And the shmeedoff walk.

I'd have more confidence in Ramos if he was Sewald.

Ron: The Mets wouldn't want any other player but Asdrubal Cabrera up here. Edgy: I might want Nimmo. Asdrubal: Nimmo this.

Shouldn't Rosario be at third?
