Well, then, you just have to look.

If they're smart, they'll add Benny Agbayani.

Mendoza didn't use his long man despite losing his starting pitcher after four. He pulled Dedniel Nuñez while he had three pitches working and had fanned three guys in a row. Then he sent a lefty out to save it going up against a star switch-hitter whose OPS is a crushing .270 points better against lefties. I know there's a reason guys do these things, and I know there are constraints he's probably working within, but I'm flummoxed. From the outside, it looks like "How can I blow this?"

Good play. I watched the Mets in the Summer of Cerone in 1991, but somehow completely deleted him. I'm aware, of course, that he was there, but not a single concrete memory sticks.

Sewald has some loose laces flying off his glove.

Well, the Mets ninth-inning job is currently being listed at linkedin. Diekman sort of was set up, sending him against righties, but he didn't come in to anybody.

Damn, Taylor always looks confused going back.

Gotta go through Marte.

Ottavino for the eighth sure makes it look like the Mets are planning to throw Smith right into the ninth-inning fire.

I realize that Torrens is Venezuelan, but it feels odd to see 13 on the back of a non-infielder. The last Mets catcher to wear it has to be ... part-time backstop Clint Hurdle?

A long foul ball aside, putting Reed Garrett back in the middle innings looks like it may be the way get him back in gear. Now the WHO'S CLOSING mystery lingers. John Franco was here yesterday. How's his arm?

And that endorsement of Dedniel Nuñez as bullpen darkhorse is suddenly looking prescient. Or at least, it is to me. Not so much to Carlos Mendoza, who is lifting him in the middle of an inning after three consecutive strikeouts, with three different pitches working.

I love it too, but it's a tragic song, and they played a chorus of it every time Luis Guillorme came up, and it certainly didn't deliver the sort of energy that sustains a rally. Sort of like when they play "Piano Man" in the eighth-inning. A lot of people love that song, almost certainly moreso in Mets territory. I don't judge them, but a story of middle-aged people watching their lives slip away is no way to trigger the energy to produce late-inning fireworks.

This is looking like a Dickey start. Not a Mets Dickey start. A Rangers Dickey start.

It looks like the all the Mets players are participating in Fantastic 4 Day.

For some reason, I thought this was 1:10. I tuned only to get the beefy tones of the esteemed Todd Zeile.

I, for one, welcome the Luís Torrens era to Citi Field. (If they play "Brother Louie" for him, I think I'm going to scream.)

I guess seeing Pete Alonso not hit the Injured List, despite being taken out of a game following a hit-by-pitch on his knuckles, was too much for him. Having hit .191, with a .357 slugging percentage, at Syracuse, he was not likely to see him called up even had Alonso hit the IL. Twenty-year-old Venezuelan Jhosep Chirinos (the convention of the h affixed to the back of the J is often a useful indicator of Venezuelan background) had a rock-solid debut as a starter in the Dominican Summer League, but called up the Arizona Complex League as a sophomore, he found himself switched to the bullpen by the Padres, only to see his control utterly abandon him. Whether the Mets try to reestablish him as a starter will be seen.

I'm sorry this game went sideways, as we had at least three forumites in the crowd.

Cobb played in a racially segregated league, which implicates him — and everybody up to and including heroic princes like Christy Matthewson and Lou Gehrig — in racism. Beyond that, Cobb as a savage misanthrope steeped in racial animus is a popular myth largely descended from a single source that appears to have little credibility.

"Piano Man" in the eighth. Ugh.

Iglesias is in for Lindor, and ... it's starting to show that he may not be the same guy.
