Germán Márquez has been the best Rockies starting pitcher from the last decade. His 2023 ended after four starts with UCL surgery, and the Rockies still loved him enough to sign him to a two-year deal this offseason. This is his first MLB game back from surgery so good or bad, his work day is likely to be short.

I'm certainly looking forward to a Severino relief appearance.

Good thread. I think most of us re-reading will see we were right about some things, dead wrong about others.

As far as I can tell, Brandon Sproat was the only Futures Game participant from the Mets organization, but he repped well, giving up no hits and no walks in his inning, in the 6-1 victory for the National League representatives over the American League hopefuls. Sproat's second batter reached on an error but was quickly erased on an inning-ending double-play. I guess that US-vs.-the-world format was starting to seem a bit jingoistic.

Your final is Padres 4, Braves 0. Mets pull within three games of Atlanta. Cards beat the Cubs and remain tied with the Mets for the second Wild Card spot. (Mets are 3–2 against the Cards head-to-head, so I guess they are in the lead.)

Mets at four games over .500, equaling their high-water mark for the season. Padres up 1-0 on the Braves.

Mendoza sticking with McNugent against the lefty in a big spotTM.

Butto is having a day. Stay with him.

Bad day for Nimmix.

Butto is buttiful.

Mets All-Star MemoriesTM lacking a Jon Matlack or Lee Mazzilli feature.

Butto magic! https://media.tenor.com/GWIVtYUiZNEAAAAM/shia-la-beouf-magic.gif>

Looks like Scott is getting the hook with one out in the fifth. Crack open a Butto.

Well, 75% of that lead be gone.

Man, if the Mets get into the bullpen early here, it would be terrific.

McContributions!!

Gamel needed that walk too. I think we've figured out why Feltner's stuff hasn't translated. He has trouble working from the stretch.

Fair enough. Long live the other thread.

I don't know from the other thread. I respond thoughtfully to what you've written in this thread, and you ignore it and bring up a different argument. I also haven't seen any reports that he has done poorly on defense. Your insistence that he's in a slump and desire to see him do something you're not going to see without watching is setting an impossible bar. (Maybe he's been dynamite on defense?) These are both deliberately nebulous and therefore unreachable standards. One might as well say that he must first find the end of the rainbow.

Just moving the goalposts there. No, I haven't.

Stewart, Gamel, and McNiggins all in the lineup. I feel confident in saying that there is room for Brett Baty on this team. OE: I assume that Nimmo is playing center there, and not left.

He was hitting close to .350 only a few weeks ago. Yes, that's the nature of small sample sizes. He took two collars in two days, and his average went down, but there's no need to conclude that's a pattern as he turned around and went 1-for-3 with a walk, a homer, two runs scored and three RBI yesterday. I'd still like to see him turn the ship around before I recall him. I'm not sure what "turning the ship around" looks like. He's done great. He's unquestionably the top lefthanded hitter on the team, and the Mets unquestionably have room for improvement among their lefthanded bats. There's no urgency to rush it. I have an urge to improve the team. I don't see any evidence that a callup after the break can be regarded as a rush.

Dropping to .277 hardly seems to be a real issue when McNeil is up to .215.

Gamel is starting about one game in ten. You can give that game to Baty, along with Gamel's roster spot. That's one. Stewart is starting about three games in ten. You can give one of those to Baty. That's two. McNeil is starting about five games in ten, and is, as noted, nearly the least valuable player in the league. Surely two of those games can be taken and given to Baty. That's four. That puts us within one game of Baty playing 50% of the time, without yet taking any games away from Iglesias, Vientos, or Lindor. Surely taking a game from one of them every thirty games won't upset the apple hat, and that gets us to a 50% starting rate for the guy. That's a role. That's being a part of things. That's doing a lot more with the roster spot than giving it to Gamel, who simply has no role, having appeared only once since July 5, as a pinch-runner who stayed in the game to play a single inning in the outfield. Talent can stagnate not playing enough in the majors. That's true. But it can also stagnate being stuck in the minors. He's simply got more to give, though I think Gamel is adorable.
