  1. The Mets return home to the triumphant strains of "Rock, Rock, Robert Stock!" — the new hype song that is sweeping the lounges, go-gos, and cabarets of Northern Queens. Stock takes on lefthander Andrew Alvarez of the Washington Nationals, as the Mets take aim at the team just ahead of them in the National League East standings. Some patriotic warbler will sing the national anthem of these United States! Some wannabe jock will attempt to throw a ceremonial strike! And then, on or about 7:10 PM, Andy Green will have his team ready to compete! Fireworks after the game, and if any justice exists in this cruel universe, a few Metly explosions will happen during the game as well.
  2. Trying to carve a home for himself in the MAGAsphere, but no longer a big enough name that an operative is just going to carve it out for him. But if you don't watch out — and if you don't find it in your heart to give him the love and relevance he misses — he's going to smack you in the side of the head with a book/podcast/reality show or the like about how communists, Muslims, blue hairs, and trans athletes are destroying everything that was once good.
  3. Hat tip to Raisel. I've never seen anybody get Falverez on changeups.
  4. Acoonie's legs sure ain't what they used to be, but there's nothing wrong with his arm, and Young blows the chance to start something by foolishly testing it.
  5. Luis Robert is fanning the flames of the end of his career in center. Maybe the Mets are continuing to use him there to showcase him for an offseason deal or something, but exposing his arm is not improving his value.
  6. If last night's Met performance was too lacking it a hot, sexy Bretty Baty factor, as well an alluring, provocative Luis Torrens element, well, tonight is your night, as both return to the lineup card. Turned off by the cold, clinical offerings of Marcus Semien? Well, again, tonight is for you. Tosser Zac Thornton LHP 3-2, 2.52 ERA, 27 SO Clubbers 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 Francisco Alvarez (R) DH Brett Baty (L) 2B Luis Torrens (R) C Heaver Tyler Mahle RHP 3-9, 4.83 ERA, 98 SO Batonmen Ronald Acuña Jr. (R) RF Drake Baldwin (L) DH Matt Olson (L) 1B Ozzie Albies (S) 2B Michael Harris II (L) CF Mauricio Dubón (R) SS Lane Thomas (R) LF Austin Riley (R) 3B Sean Murphy (R) C
  7. Other weirdos: Tug McGraw, Dock Ellis, Turk Wendell. Carl Everett, of course, is sort of a captain of Team Weird.
  8. Thanks for filling in the data. Yeah, I imagine something pretty dramatic would likely be going down to keep the opt-out/escalation from being a fait accompli from both ends. But who knows what transpires between now and 2029?
  9. Folks, we neglected to start an IGT for this evening's game, forcing Brock to brock with protocol, taking the IGT-starting privileges the day after starting the thread and losing. Yikes. Again, I say, yikes.
  10. I didn't know there was an agreed-upon amount to get him to not opt-out. I just figured, as the opt-out loomed, his agent would drag the Mets back to the negotiating table and play hardball.
  11. Maybe, but without Soto, that $51,875,000 might have spread meaningfully to different outlets. There are two sides to these equations. The fun part of his salary is it stays flat through 2039(!!), so that $51 million will presumably be worth far less then (depending on how maliciously the president upends the economy and nation). On the other hand, he has that opt-out after 2030, which he will likely take, or force the Mets to escalate his salary under the threat of him taking it.
  12. Some o' that offense would be nice before the next inning ends the game.
  13. Robert showing a deeply wanting arm this inning, but the range going back is still there.
  14. Yanni is all over the place. The pitch locations are spilling out like candy from a piñata.
  15. Eighty-five pitches and the day is done for McBain.
