Holdfinger is wild, and not in an effectively wild sense.

Good triple-play situation set up by Holdielocks.

We're gonna have to do this vs. the pen. Mets have three lefties in a row coming up in the eighth, so the Pads are gonna come out with Tim Hill on the hill.

Nido or Mazeika would possibly be part of the return.

Just bunt your way on, McNougat. Edgy needs baserunners.

Hey, a hit!!! After that play by Guillorme, this might be their first gasp of air since Pete went down.

If Pete Alonso is hurt, the obvious injury replacement is Dom Smitty. But if Marte is hurt, there's nothing obvious about it. Mark Vientos is on the injured list. Daniel Johnson hasn't yet hit in two organizations so far this season. Khalil Lee has shown power but not a lot of contact, and we know how that translated last season. They could call up an infielder and keep McNeil in the outfield, but of those on the roster, Gosuke Katoh has struggled to hit in AAA and Ronnie Mauricio is still trying to get some plate judgement in AA. If they can make room on the roster, they might add Blankenhorn, Wyatt Young, or Jake Mangum, who does most things but hit for power. I'll guess Mangum.

I'm thinking that the Mets are projecting internal confidence in the rehab of their three missing starters, or else he might stick around and see how things shook out. Instead, he's off to Korea. Pretty strong gameface.

Mets gettin' no-hit and feelin' no-hittable tonight.

Canha is seeing Darvish's pitches better than anybody in the lineup so far.

Walker pitching like he's the one who got hit.

And now Marte is out of the game and the team down to one offensive reserve.

Alonso was hit on the inside of the right wrist. Davis replaced him after. In retrospect, maybe starting Dock Ellis wasn't a bright idea.

Top four batters in the Mets lineup are currently battered.

Two Mets plugged leading off two innings. If they get Wilson Contreras, they'll get hit even more. And Pete comes out o' the game.

Profar hit one so far.

Joined the team in mid-September, despite them already being well out of the hunt. Was fond of brains, if I recall correctly.

Remember when Lunchie was all in on Lou Collier?

And if there was anybody with a comparably bullet-proof rep, it was Girardi. OK, it was Terry Francona, and then Girardi. Fun Fackt I Had Forgotten: This was Maddon's third tenure for the Angels. He twice took over in September following a firing back in the 20th Century — first in 1996 and then in 1999. Name the two managers he finished the season for! My sources say that Maddon is pissed he won't get to wear the City Connect uniform.

Get your rest in early or keep your stimulants handy. Davish tends to work slowly enough to make Blake Snell look like Greg Maddux.

I was thinking Glendon, but my nasty little MAGA fingers were typing "Let's go, Brandon!"

Man, I remember Amblood being a Jorge Toca true believer. =Gwreck post_id=95202 time=1654634664 user_id=56]I've also think I've been underwhelmed by every prospect the Mets have acquired via trade since about 1990 (other than Syndergaard and Wheeler).

The first exception that pops to mind is the 1988 Orioles, who went 0-6 under Cal Ripken, saw him replaced by Frank Robinson, and then went on to lose 15 more on their way to an 0-21 start.

In the great list of old, previously productive leftfielders who didn't have much left when they reached the Mets, it's fun that one (Bay) came with the brand of being a recommended José Reyes buddy and another (Michael Cuddyer) came with the brand of being a recommended David Wright buddy. Fillial relations are a cool thing, as long as you hit and everything. If you add rightfielders, Shawn Green came with the brand of being a recommended Carlos Delgado buddy. Willie Randolph's Mets had disappointing friends.

Whoah. Nevin has been a longtime managerial prospect with a lot of JV experience who's been waiting for a big league chance.
