I Am a DJ Stewart I Am What I Say just ripped one off of the wall against Patrick Corbin. Lefty-on-lefty violence is ruining our country! The Nats don't look good.

Narváez ties up game two by driving home Zach Short. Marlins have a radio announcer who is describing the action as if she's never seen baseball before.

Most of the A-team is at home against the Nats.

The Mets fighting the evil elite forces of Miami and Washington, DC at the same time!! Just went up 2-0 on the Nats as Brett Baty did something with the bases loaded. The Marlins game seems delayed or something. There it is. Mets down 1-0.

That's weird.

I'm not sure why this is a Vientos thread, but sure I can call him a prospect. And a player.

But he IS the last surviving NRI. And he IS great at fighting foo.

You were asked to just decide, and whatever you decided, the Mets decided on me. And whatever dubious choices and offensive instagram posts I've made along the way, I've been a consistent hitter from year to year, I'm only in the fray for a single season, an a large chunk of what I'll be drawing won't be for over another decade, when a million bucks will be a the cost of a video rental. The main cost will be the roster spot, and that's not nothing, but the Dodgers didn't think I was worth a roster spot, and the guy they gave my spot to now has a big ol' gamblin' cloud hanging over his head. All that's hanging over my head is the curiosity of not knowing how you think my 2024 is going to go. PhotoShoppers, do your stuff.

A really strong spring, including him being used over multiple innings, really helped him move ahead of some higher-profile guys, and he just looked big-league every time out there. The harder side of that news is Phil Bickford, but he lost his position fair and squair. Let's hope he sneaks through waivers. Or failing that, brings some compensation.

A big hand to the last Mets NRI from 2024 not yet shipped off to minor-league camp and points beyond. He still has a couple of humps to get over if he wants to go north, but there ought to be a special award at the end of camp, whether or not the player makes the team. Your 2024 Spring Survivor is Ji-Man Choi!

Say what you want about the man, but he knows how to fight foo.

Nope. The Astros finish the job. Tough first inning from Quintana and it just cascaded from there. Most of the other pitchers are Brooklyn-ish-bound who we won't likely see again in 2024. Good to see Blevins and Zeile working side-by-side.

Mets have three more outs and the rain is making it a real possibility that they don't even get that.

Kyle Tucker just homered onto the berm, conking an inattentive fan in the head.

Hey, Vientos knocks one up the middle for just the second Mets hit, but it puts the heroes on the board!

Duplantier now on the mound and the inning continues to be a nightmare.

Another Bregman homer and it's 8-0. Punishment for taking yesterday off.

Wilkin Ramos with his back to the wall, faced Yordan Álvarez with the bags juiced. He pretty clearly nicked Álvarez with a pitch, but Álvarez actually tried to plea that he wasn't hit, so badly did he want to get a shot at the minor-leaguer's 3-2 pitch.

In spring training, when pitchers reach a certain number of pitches in an inning, they can come out and return the next inning, and that's just what José Quintana will do.

And a three-run homer by Alex Bregman shows just how much of a grind. It's MVP candidate after MVP candidate.

The top of the Astro lineup sure is a grind.

J.D. is "super-excited to be here," and says "the guys are super-excited to have me."

We blew off accounting on yesterday's Yankee game, and we paid an ignoble price with a bitter loss. Lest we repeat that error, let us enjoy this visit from Houston's finest, expected to be José Quintana's last tune-up before Opening Day. In celebration of that event, four Josés and one Joey pack the lineups of our two sides.

Well, the MRC crew does a lot of work, and they're pretty close, and it could change from day to day. Mark Vientos, we'll remind folks all day and all night, has had the better minor-league career. Brett Baty has had the better spring outcomes (which could change with the swing of a bat), but who knows how the internal judgments are coming down? There's a very meaningful chance that they'll both break camp with the team, and Stewart gets left behind, or Short, or Bickford. There are still a multitude of scenarios. Mets Roster Central tries to lay out the most likely one, but like the weatherman says, whatever forecast we're offering you, we'd discourage you from wagering on it.

OK, yeah, so J.D. Martinez won't be on the OD roster — which we should have anticipated — so pretend that last post didn't happen. We'll revert to the notion that Vientos and Stewart will be Mets, and Martinez and Baty won't. That offer is subject to change as supplies last.

The flag is meant to indicate the birthplace, rather than the citizenship. Tim Tebow rocked a Philippines flag, despite his being an American hero, and PJ Conlon presented with a Northern Ireland flag, despite Northern Ireland being a statelet that we at Mets Roster Central don't even acknowledge to exist.
