Blackyburny went 5 2/3 innings for Syracuse tonight, giving up two earned runs and taking the win. He struck out three and walked none. He's 5-1 / 2.55 this year at AAA.

I was reading about Sad Sam Jones today, and his first professional contract was with The Zanesville Flood Sufferers. They existed for most of their 2+ seasons in The Central League as The Zanesville Potters, but in 1913 a major flood hit the city (really, it hit everywhere), just a few months after they got torn up by a tornado. Somebody decided that it would be a great new name for the team, and despite landing a hot new talent like Sad Sam, they ceased operations by June.

You have 12 firstbasemen.

If you think your shortstop hits like a firstbaseman, then you really want him playing shortstop.

Robert Gsellman is killing it with The Lake Country DockHounds of The American Association. Meanwhile, the team keeps their powder dry on Drew Smith 2025.

Acuña is the fastest in sprint speed on the team, https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/leaderboard/sprint_speed?min_season=2025&max_season=2025&position=&team=121&min=10as measured by Statcast. Taylor is #2. Marte is shown as #11. A couple of caveats on that: I question that the data is really there on him, as I find it hard to believe that all three catchers are ahead of him, as the data suggests. Maybe he just doesn't run hard on grounders, to save his legs, and so they haven't got a good read or something. Seeing McNeil, Soto, and Mauricio also behind him and the three catchers tells me that there is a fly in the ointment somewhere. Sprint speed measures your running in a straight line, not cutting for an extra base, where it can be argued (not necessarily accurately) that a guy like Starling Marte really kicks in his burners. That said, there certainly seems to be enough there to suggest Taylor is your man. The three feet per second difference may not be accurate, but it is three feet.

"I'd like to review that play, and furthermore, I'd like to review my decision not to put in a pinch-runner before that play."

Doing the Mets a big favor pulling Woodruff.

King Vaughn, my ass. America has no kings.

I like the way Soto turns around after getting a whiff. They also just played Diaz' entrance music as Contreras' walkup music. Mark my words: there are high-level discussions at MLB about giving players exclusive rights to their tune.

The Turning Point of the Game is totally Gelbs' Horshack imitation.

You don't want to spend too much time beating yourself up for an error, Kodai, or you might get distracted from the job and throw a cookie.

Gelbs' Horshack isn't really working.

They have been using it for a while. During the recent dry streak, they have been kind of shying away from doing the posed shot after a homer if they are down by a lot or — in Soto's case — they had been getting no-hit for 13 innings.

Two assists and a putout for Lindor that inning. Let us please not move him to first any time soon.

Steve: Players Weekend is August 15-17. Join the players as they use personalize bats, cleats, patches, nicknames and more. Keith, what would you have done for Players Weekend. Keith: I'm sorry. I ignore all reading of promotional copy. What are you talking about?

I dunno. Celebrations continue throughout the night holds so much magical ambiguity.

First time in a couple of years you will see a Mets team with both Baty and Vientos on the roster, but neither in the lineup.

The 1965 performance was a milestone because The Beatles became the first rock band to perform a major stadium concert. A 50-minute documentary entitled “The Beatles at Shea Stadium” captured the show. At the time, the multi-purpose stadium was home to the Mets and New York Jets. The celebration begins with a performance by 1964 The Tribute in front of Shea Bridge at 6:15 p.m. ET. The first 15,000 fans to enter Citi Field will receive an exclusive Shea Stadium replica. Celebrations continue throughout the night. The first pitch will be thrown by members of the gameday staff who worked the famous concert. After the game, fans can stay put for a special themed fireworks show.[/TD][/TR][/TABLE]

Dom Hamel hadn't exactly been red-hot in Syracuse, but he tended to follow two good outings with a blowup, and since he had a blow-up in his last appearance with the S-Mets, maybe they figured it was a good time to get him to the big leagues. But that doesn't sound very scientific. Anthony Baptist had a really pro rookie year in the DSL in 2023 — going .276 / .426 / .476 // .903 in 136 plate appearances — but he must've gotten hurt something fierce in the interim. We're talking run over by a tractor or bitten by a venemous toad or something, because he missed all of 2024 and only managed 19 inefffective trips to the plate this season.

Good pick. He kind of reads like a righthanded-throwing Dykstra to me, hopefully without the Dykstra-ness.

Congratulations to Jen Pawol, who on Saturday is slated to become MLB's first-ever female ump, regular season edition. We've had a handful of females at a time in the affiliated minors umping corps for decades, and some have even worked MLB spring-training games. It seems like this glass ceiling ceiling should have broken a long time ago, but on Saturday, Pawol is scheduled to work both ends of the Braves-Marlins doubleheader, and if the world keeps turning, she will be behind home plate for the Sunday matinee. She has been grinding it out on minor-league fields since 2016, and is currently doing her thing in AAA, but MLB umps tend to take their vacations in August, and she got the call. With any luck, the call will soon be permanent, and hopefully not a lot of folks will be in the blast radius when Keith's head explodes.
