    He's found his velocity. His stuff — a sinker that is he can spot and keep down and a sweeper that gets chased — has always been good enough. He just had no fastball to keep people honest. Now he does. Whether that's persists is guesswork, but it's been persisting now (or, at least, progressively improving) since early June, and he's also been keeping the pitch count down (mostly) enough to pitch deep(ish, by today's standards) into games.

    Five games behind the Reds (who are filthy communists), putting the sweet smell of 12th place within range of a soft, breezy waft of being detectable. We'd be within four and a half of them, as well as these same Pirates (who are filthy marauders), if we had only pulled out the oh-so-close middle game of this series.
  3. Edgy MD
    Five and one since the trade deadline. They should have a deadline every week.

    Lindor visits Hitsville against the position playa. Everything is coming up Brian Roses, offensively, but Baty is going to Atlanta on an 0-for-5 thought. Let's see if Weisass has one more of those innings in him.
  5. Edgy MD
    Well, it's not just a factor of such. Alvarez came into the game slugging .520 with the bases empty and .298 with men on base. With runners in scoring position, that drops to .264, nearly half his number with the bases empty.
  6. Edgy MD
    And a deep fly ends the seventh on 91 chucks.
  7. Edgy MD
    Six and a third on 82 pitches. Maybe he makes the eighth. Three strikes later, it's 6 2/3 on 85 pitches.
  8. Edgy MD
    Ewing, Lindor, and Baty are the only guys not in the hit column. The first two, though, have each scored two runs.
  9. Edgy MD
    I can't speak for all of us, but it is addressable. Bichette, meanwhile, is having a day.
  10. Edgy MD
    After two hits, it might be a good idea to get Benge out of there, and have his wrist heal up a little for Atlanta.

    The booth is missing a big part of the story in discussing Dave Kingman. His career ended after hitting 35 homers not so much because teams changed their priorities (although he wasn't good), but because teams were (somewhat openly) engaging in collusion.
  12. Edgy MD
    Unlikely, but it's a shame that his season has to end at the end of September, because he's just getting started. But he sure looks likely to be a part of the opening day rotation in 2027, which is certainly a step forward from where he started 2026. He hit 95 today — more than once, I think, and I don't think he's done that in two years. And Alvarez shoots a solo shot out.
  13. Edgy MD
    Eight to one lead after a three-run double by Boba. Payback.
  14. Edgy MD
    Referenced just now in the booth — Hal McRae takes out Willie Randolph at second, knocking him damn near into left field (but not rolling over on his leg). Both players ended up being managers, of very different temeraments.
  15. Edgy MD
    Luis Robert — the walking, talking, beefy reason why Nick Morabito isn't with the Mets.
  16. Edgy MD
    When McEwing sets the table, good things happen.
  17. Edgy MD
    A standard lineup apart from Baty at DH. Also, with Torrens catching so much of late, it's an odd Sunday not to see him in the lineup. Chucker Sean Manaea LHP 3-5, 4.33 ERA, 95 SO Lineup A.J. Ewing (L) LF Francisco Lindor (S) SS Bo Bichette (R) 3B Carson Benge (L) RF Luis Robert Jr. (R) CF Jared Young (L) 1B Marcus Semien (R) 2B Brett Baty (L) DH Francisco Alvarez (R) C Slinger Jared Jones RHP 2-3, 4.02 ERA, 62 SO Lineup Jake Mangum (S) CF Ronny Simon (S) RF Bryan Reynolds (S) DH Nick Gonzales (R) 3B Esmerlyn Valdez (R) LF Brandon Lowe (L) 2B Rafael Flores Jr. (R) 1B Jared Triolo (R) SS Henry Davis (R) C

    I certainly understand Morabito and Tong not being on the team at the moment, but I imagine Stock won't be starting again in four days.
  19. Edgy MD
    Being from Flatbush, it would have been nice if Candeleria had at least remembered that he had played for the Mets, brief as it was. But he went from there to spending the better part of two seasons with the Yankees, and probably defines his time in his hometown by that tenure alone.
  20. Edgy MD
    Man, I've sat through this turkey and haven't even met John Candeleria. I'd settle for Jermaine Allensworth at this point.
  21. Edgy MD
    Well, I think his slot is open. It's going to be tough to get those eight runs back with just two innings left.
  22. Edgy MD
    You're missing out. Arias has All-Star hair and MVP teeth. Yeah, sure, he's got some AA eyebrows, but you can't get everything off the waiver wire.
  23. Edgy MD
    You stop trying to score, Mets, and you might forget how to do it.
  24. Edgy MD
    Mangum has a spot out there in right-center.
  25. Edgy MD
    That wild pitch by Stockpile should have been his last. He's running on the memory of fumes.
