Let us not look past Carson Ben-Gay, currently providing fast-acting pain relief in Brooklyn to the tune of .310 / .421 / .516 // .937.

The offensive drought is real, but I thought the "they" in "What if they all suck" referred specifically to players still in development — young players in their options years and prospects in the high minors.

This was only the second appearance of the season for Starling Marte's glove.

I may end up marrying Huascar. Just want to let youse know.

Why didn't Lindor come home on the alleged wild pitch? The booth didn't mention it and the broadcast didn't go with any shots of where he was.

Soto's moment is here.

And how about that call to start Baty?

I would be running for the catcher here.

That is a good overturn. Runners almost always know when they are safe on a force play at first. If the runner is called out but says he was safe, that should always be enough to go to Chesea.

Henderson Hernandez is looking to displace Hunter Hodges as the Metliest name in the Mets minor-league system. We don't know that he is an Anderson Hernandez relation, but we are putting that thesis on the table. Colin Poche is a long-time Rays lefty who was unsuccessfullly poached away by the Nats this offseason. He is a two-time Tommy John disciple and one of a few lefthanded relief options the Mets are stocking up on, hoping for a second-half emergence. He gets high strikeout numbers deploying a deceptive motion.

That is worth reporting, but not something to make too much of. The sample size is small and he has been away a long time. Notably, he did steal two bases in two attempts during his brief tenure in Florida, which hopefully speaks to the confidence he has in the health of his legs.

As low-scoring as it was, the energy really never seemed to leave the Xox after the confrontation with the umpires.

Baty has hit the ball hard against some lefties recently, so maybe they are trying to build on that, or maybe he is playing for his Metly life

Time of Game: Brief and ineffective.

They have certainly been economical.

Bregman is another thirdbaseman with an open-weave glove.

But then Gary drops the ball by noting that pitcher Dobbins is a former HS QB from Texas but failing to note that he was in the process of pitching to Baty, another Lone Star HS QB I thought of this, too. It is really impressive how many baseball players — even those you don't automatically think of as polished all-around athletes — were championship-level, college-recruited high school quarterbacks. Gary Carter was. Ed Charles was. Joey Mauer was supposedly unstoppable as a high school quarterback.

Pete chasing the slider away. Never a good indicator.

McNeffies also seems like the only guy who is busting it.

McNeil is the most locked in guy we have in this lineup, goofy bat and all.

Not a good feeling to see Lindor, Soto, and Alonso all in a bad headspace at once.

The bottom of the lineup is not playing along with that narrative.

Nice Twelve Angry Men reference from Darling.
