The Class of '62, the two hottest teams in béisbol, have met, and the Homeboys smoked the Awayboys. The same two match up again today, in one of those patented 2024 early evening Saturday contests. Lefty Framber Valdez is the sucker MC, and he should call Tylor Megill "Sire." [media=youtube]qXzWlPL_TKw[/media]

I saw J.D. Martinez in the crowd and realized how rare it is that you get multiple Cubans on one squad. It's like they're turning the locker room into a Miami partay. A funny night on the scoreboard in that the NL standings totally reinforced themselves. The Mets and all six teams in front of them in the league-wide standings won, while all eight teams behind them lost, so they gained no ground on anybody they trail, but they put more distance between themselves and the scrum.

Sixteen out of twenty! Bigelow Tea for everybody!!!

Garrett for the ninth. Even with a five-run lead, Carlos Mendoza is doing everything he can to avoid pressing the Adcock button.

A near miss as Lindor turns is ankle. Unsurprisingly shoos off the trainer, but the Mets have burned their only infield sub.

Who had McNeil for three hits and three RBI? Also, we finally get a Citi Field debut for Cooper Hummel.

This is incrediboom so far. I just wish the Mets production team could be shooting it.

Kyle Schwarber (mild groin strain) and Bryce Harper (low-grade hammy strain) both hitting the 10-Day IL. Neither absence is expected to be extended, but J.T. Realmuto is still out for at least a few more weeks (and possibly more) following knee surgery, so if ever there was a time to make a move on the Phils, this is it.

Benjamin Grimm wrote: When is the draft anyway? June is almost over. MLB no longer does the June draft in June, pushing it back to the All-Star Break to (a) let the CWS complete and players to rest a few weeks, ( complement the publicity of the All-Star Game, and © give baseball writers something to write about during the All-Star Break. It's almost like they like my idea of a mid-season Baseball Week, but are only halfway there.

Reyes has a https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZrqeBJQFOoycl_tq1lDxTgvariety of songs. Given enough money and enough autotune technology, the opportunities, sadly, are endless. And each one makes "OMG" sound like Caruso singing "Nessun Dorma."

With the College World Series concluding with a Tennessee win (congratulations, R.A. Dickey, Mike Difelice, Greg McMichael, Bubba Trammell, and Rich Rodriguez!), and the combine behind us (combines? meh ...), the final draft mockeroonies are coming in. The name I've seen linked most to the Mets (picking 19th) is slugging UNC outfielder Vance Honeycutt. Vance has a prodigious power/speed combo (with 28 homers and 28 steals). A lot of folks are concerned with his swing-and-missiness but a .318 / .410 / .714 // 1.124 line in the ACC ain't whistling "Dixie." He may be an all-or-nothing bat, but if so, that should make him right at home in the contemporary big leagues. And while most such animals are leftfielder/DH/Kyle Schwarber types on defense, Captain UnderVance is expected to provide some elite-level centerfield defense. [fimg=500]https://ramsclub.com/app/uploads/2023/07/BASE_Honeycutt-diving-catch_cropped.jpg[/fimg] Speaking of the ACC, Wake Forest has a thirdbaseman/outfielder named Seaver King expected to go a few slots before the Mets pick, but if he's still available when they choose, I expect them to pounce all over that guy and carry him home on their shoulders. Who needs scouts when you can draft by name? [FIMG=500]https://dxbhsrqyrr690.cloudfront.net/sidearm.nextgen.sites/wingatebulldogs.com/images/2022/5/19/Crop_King.jpg[/FIMG] Another intriguing name that was popping up in Mets reports going into the CWS was Jurrangelo Cijintje of Mississippi State. "Jurrangelo Cijintje" is an intriguing name under any conditions, but he gets extra points because he's an https://www.wsj.com/sports/baseball/jurrangelo-cijntje-ambidextrous-pitcher-689c4dcaambidextrous pitcher. The speculation is that he could reach the majors as a righty starter (where he hits 97 and sits 95 with his fastball) and come out of the pen as a lefty reliever with a 93-mph fastball but from a sharper angle. [FIMG=350]https://images.wsj.net/im-961003/?width=1278&size=1[/FIMG] My plan would be to let him alternate batter-by-batter, but then when he blows out one elbow, he can keep pitching with one arm while he rehabs the other. It's like an insurance-out-of redundancy! The other guy I'm hearing a lot of buzz about is Somebody Else. I bet the Mets draft that guy.

I took a minor shit at the end there when I saw Edwin Diaz in the middle of that scrum just like with Team Puerto Rico.

It's about eight times better than any track José Reyes ever dropped. Rally Pimp = ancient history.

What I love perhaps more than anything is the Groterian (Grotesque?) authority he takes over the staff. Long have I lamented that one of the hardest things about developing a catcher from your minor league system is that it's hard for a young catcher to take that role with veteran pitchers who have more experience than them, or with peers they've come up from the minors with, all while trying to hit enough to stick. The most authoritative catchers the Mets have had (Grote, Stearns, Carter ...) have all come from outside the system. But Álvarez gives no shits. He's controlling the at-bats and calling shots for his pitchers, and they seem to trust him to do so, and maybe fear him a little bit.

Where's that $2.7 million figure for Álvarez coming from? https://legacy.baseballprospectus.com/compensation/cots/national-league/new-york-mets/Cot's Baseball Contracts has him at $762,500. If we want something like fairness, let us all oppose the anti-trust exemption with a passion.

That's really too bad, as you know that the national broadcasters put a lot of thought and money into the broadcast, and they still come up empty and uncreative.

Good stuff. There was a cool, new bases-loaded shot this week with the camera locked on the runner on third. After a few beats, it rapidly but steadily swept to the right before suddenly halting to lock on second. A few seconds there and then it swept right to first and locked there. It was a very cinematic sequence that had clearly been set up with the cameras programmed beforehand. I didn't know there had been a Jomboy controversy.

Who needs Guillorme? [media=youtube]2UiexrtDY48[/media] Also, that Phillie loss may be costly. [media=youtube]0_nDRZsDEyk[/media]

Braves, Phils, Yanks all lose. Idleness never seemed so productive.

Mets pull within a half game of the final Wild Card spot just by enjoying their day off, as the Cards fall handily to the Reds, 11–4.

Tomás Nido is getting paid $2.1 million by the Mets to be a Cub and James McCann be getting paid $9.5 million by the Mets to be an Oriole.

We got a day off from Mets baseball today. And you know what that makes today? A good day to re-evaluate the box o' thunder that is Francisco Álvarez. [FIMG=550]https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/06/new-york-mets-catcher-francisco-84010944.jpg?w=1024[/FIMG]

Narváez had four trips to the plate after his walkoff hit against San Francisco. It only feels (to me, at least) like that was his last time up as a Met. It would have been cool, and possibly unprecedented, if a little ungrateful, to let him go out that way. The writing was certainly on the wall at the time. Had an impressive start to his Mets career, collecting a hit, a walk, and a run scored on opening day 2023. His joining Houston gives the Mets two oddities: Firstly, for the second time in three series, a team is adding a catcher who played for the Mets earlier this season, just before a series with the Mets, forcing them to circle the wagons and possibly pivot from potential intelligence breaches. Secondly, his employment means the Mets have a starting catcher playing like an All-Star, while they are continuing to pay more money to each of three other catchers playing for other teams.
