Good share! For otherwise modest-stakes regular season action, I would nominate El Cinco de Mayo, 2022, Phriday Night in Philly. The Mets went into the sixth down 7-0, and into the ninth down 7-1 before scoring seven in the ninth, the last three with two out, before Edwin Diaz nailed it down with a perfect inning in the bottom of the frame, striking out Castellanos, getting Realmuto on a groundout, and fanning Rhys Hoskins to end it. Second biggest comeback in team history, the biggest ninth-inning comeback they ever got, and the only career MLB victory for Adonis Medina.

There is some minor concern in Bravesland (grave concern among some more animated elements) that Ron Washington is presumably available for a coaching staff near you, and the Mets will get first crack at him, actively filling coaching slots while the Braves search for a skipper.

wOw

Jeff Albert was (with a lot of luck) predicted by Mets Roster Central. Kai Correa is a native of Hawaii. He has some Japanese descent, but I do not see any reports that speaking Japanese is in his portfolio. That would be cool, though. He went straight from college to coaching, with no professional playing experience, which strikes me as an increasingly common background for rising coaches these days. He went 1-2 as an interim manager for the Giants in 2023. And if the Mets do not improve on their 2025 performance next year, there is a good chance he gets to add to that record.

... hopefully come up with a better look for his hair.

Other coming firstbasemen in the system, both probably more than a year away, are Jacob Reimer and Chris Suero. While neither is best suited at first, both are kind of gravitating that way, as are all of us. Even McNeil could end up there in 2026, I guess. It will be the last guaranteed year of his contract, and a year over there might give a longer-tem option a chance to emerge.

His 0-for-22 with no walks and no reaching base through any other means represents an all-time team record for batting futility among players who alleged themselves to be batters. (Even Randy Tate had a walk.) Only Corey Oswalt, with an 0-for-24, keeps him from the record among all Mets. But hey, he was 2-for-2 in getting his sons to wear the right uniform, even they didn't quite wear it right.

Seattle for me. I dinna like their colors, but go, Mariners.

No it wasn't a success for you. You were an embarrassing disgrace. And you are lying now, as you continually and shamelessly do. And you cannot get "thrown off this website." As you have already been thrown off, after several patient suspensions, in defiance of the grace afforded you. Any disappearance that happens now is just me getting over my laziness and enforcing the ban you have already earned a thousand times over.

With John Gibbons leaving the Mets of his own volition, but explicitly not retiring, I would expect he will be among the candidates for the Braves manager posting, as he managed Toronto under Alex Anthopoulos, current Braves general manager.

Well, of course he is looking for seven years. The most surprising thing about that is that is is not eight or nine years. It is October, and his free agency has not even begun yet. Any agent worth their 10 percent is going to be setting the bar at the highest it can go.

I think it is more unwise to misuse a tool and act on a false impression.

This is something of a statistical illusion. The OPS for the Mets is on the first pitch is .929, but the OPS league-wide on the first pitch is .925, so the Mets were not doing more with it than most others. The reason this seems so high (in both cases) is largely that there are certain things you cannot do on a first pitch. In particular, you cannot strike out. You cannot walk either, of course, but in a league that strikes out 2.64 times for each walk, the former has a greater impact. Also, I think we are talking about two different things. The Mets performance when swinging at the first pitch, whether or not that was the pitch that decided the plate appearance (which was an unremarkable .743) and the Mets OPS on the first pitch, with that pitch definitively deciding the plate appearance, which, again, was .929.

It is indeed among the unintended consequences we create with all the dumb rules to preserve pitching. We give managers an extra roster spot, we universalize the DH, we virtually eliminate extra innings, and we allow for liberal roster manipulation to expand the roster toward infinity, and all it does is cause managers to be more profligate with the pitching they have. The more we address the demand on pitching, the more poverty of pitching we create.

Extra-Inning Baseball is actually a wonderful feature that we have treated as a bug, and here we are with hyperbolic headlines about the dramatic finishes that we used to have — and still could have — available to us all season long. Bizarre.

Mike Greenwell, the career Red Sock who helped Boston move on as smoothly as anybody can ask from their long era of Yastrzemski/Rice/Evans on the outfield corners, has succumbed to thyroid cancer at the too-young age of 62. A career .303 hitter, Greenie debuted in 1985 and briefly appeared against the Mets in the 1986 World Series, but it took until 1987 for the Sox to find room for him. He briefly appeared in NPB for The Hanshin Tigers, where his teammates included a young Tsuyoshi Shinjyo. After his career, he did a little coaching; moved on to stock car and pickup truck racing; owned a construction company, a small amusement park, and a batting range; and ultimately became a county commissioner — initially appointed by Governor Ron DeSantis to fill a vacancy before being re-elected last year. His diagnosis came only two months ago. He wore a stache because all the best hitters on the Sox wore them back then. His nephew Joey Terdaslovich was a minor-league Met back in 2018. [fimg=400]https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/7fUAAeSwhvdo4ciF/s-l1600.jpg[/fimg]

And that was Cox' second tenure with the team. My money is going to be on Weiss. The media made him something of a legend in his playing days with Atlanta. I don't particularly hold the Braves' shortcomings against Snitker, as he isn't personally trying to tear up Ronald Acuña's legs every 15 months or so, but they have had a very Metly thing the last year and a half where an All-Star player can suddenly be the worst hitter in the league for half a season.

The main problem with sim scores is that they are not corrected for season-to-season and ballpark-to-ballpark run-scoring environments.

Great numbers from centerfield. The problem is, of course, there is always someone certain that they are smarter than the numbers. Sometimes, they are even right — or, at least, sometimes they are luckier than the numbers.

He was most known as the batting practice pitcher that Pete Alonso took to the Home Run Derby that wasn't his cousin. Aaron was listed as "Staff Assistant," so presumably his responsibilities included more than tossing meatballs, but his replacement Kevin Mahoney has merely had "Batting Practice Pitcher" as media guide designation, and since he appears to have joined the team just as the season was getting underway, that is probably specifically what he was hired for, though he may have picked up a side hustle along the way. Kevin hails from Miller Place, NY and like so many instructors and aides and development personnel in the current Mets organization, comes out of the Yankee system. Frustrating. On to more contemporary transacting.

He didn't appear in the post season or anything, but we hear that his ring shines just as brightly. He became the bullpen coach with the very last Montreal Expos teams and the very first Washington Nationals teams, but has spent most of the last 20 years on the minor-league instructor side. This business of projecting who is next in line within the organization when a coaching position becomes available is very specious business, as teams are highly likely to look outside the organization for off-season coaching replacements, but considering all the reports about how delighted the Mets became with Francisco Álvarez' defense and after his minor-league excursion, Natal sounds like as good a bet as any. He carries a lot of extra weight, as some retired catchers seem to, but most of the photos of him on the development side show him throwing a mean batting practice, and that is value added. Chris Devenski was going to become a minor-league free agent on the day after the World Series anyhow, but having recently gone through waivers, he has gotten a jump on the market, which is probably wise thinking.

Dick Scott obviously is not stranger to Citi Field dugouts and clubhouses, having served as bench coach under Terry Collins and returning briefly to that role under Buck Showalker when Glenn Sherlock was out following a Covid diagnosis. Desi Druschel joined the staff in November 2024, hailed as "one of the best in the industry from a pitch-design and seam-orientation optimization standpoint," but since we cannot any resource on the Web that even tells us what hand the guy throws with, he sgill may be too fringey a figure to get serious consideration for the lead pitching coach guy, but currently, he is the highest profile guy standing for that job. Jeff Albert, whose playing career consisted of all of 18 trips to the plate in the Frontier League in 2003, and six more in the American Association in 2007 (!!), may also seem too obscure to get a serious look as the next hitting coach, but he served in that role for the Cardinals from 2019 to 2022. Reid Brignac, having skippered the Binghamton Rumble Ponies to a simply fantastic season in 2025, and having in doing so supervised some of the organization's top prospects, will almost certainly get a strong look for one role or another on the Mets staff, and maybe the staff of some other big league team as well. Rick Guarno may not be so much of a comer with the Mets organization. As a native and resident of Syracuse, the former minor-league catcher may be more likely to stick there as batting coach, but we will see. A.J. Sager is a guy, but he is a guy that won Minor League Staff Member of the Year in 2023, so there's that.

Wander joined the Mets roster twice in 2025, but didn't see any game action in either assignment, which probably makes him a pretty rare bird. Both Devenski and Suero had terrific AAA seasons. Devenski was pretty solid at the big-league level too.

Whatever the guru skills, I wonder how you can ask a coach to answer for four dozen different pitchers in a single season.

They are all gurus until they ain't, I reckon.

I tend to reject the special supremacy of the third-base coach. His apparent excellence is or negligence is a function of perhaps 10 or so calls a year. That is probably understated, but using that number, if he gets eight of those right, he is seen as being an asset, and if he gets four of them right, he is seen as a liability. But the difference between those two is pretty slender, and not particularly predictive of what will happen the next year. In addition to making those high-stakes calls, he has to relay signals, so a lot responsibility falls on him, but not a lot of control over outcomes. in my new order, I give my base coaches equal status, and they take turns alternating each series who gets to coach first and who gets to coach third.

Wow! Is he back to work for the Mets?
