I very rarely attend April baseball games locally because the weather is, most often, a crapfest. Tonight was beautiful - even at the end of the game at 9:15 it was still a comfy 55F out there. The baby Mets got spanked the way a baby often might. Other'n that, fun was had all around.

Can we please fire all of the strength and conditioning employees? No other team is snakebit like this.

I will say, after absorbing most of Sunday's WPIX rerun in the evening on SNY, that Gary Apple annoyed me less as a PBP man than most of the non Gary-Cohen types and non-SNY yabbos we've been subjected to over the years from ESPN, the MLB network, etc etc

I get the need for LHP help out there but I think the MFYs are getting the better end of this deal.

The silver lining in the cloud: “I think this is a huge relief,” said Dr. Michael Alaia, a sports health expert and associate professor in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at NYU Langone Health. An MRI exam Friday found the Mets superstar has a stress reaction in his right scapula. According to Alaia, the “extremely rare” injury in lay humans — though not unheard of in pitchers — is caused by repetitive stress on the muscles that are pulling on the shoulder blade bone. The Mets have said their co-ace will not throw for up to four weeks before they get more imaging on his throwing shoulder. Given that deGrom will first have to allow the bone to heal before building back up again, it's possible he won't debut this season until June. But the odds of this injury spiraling into something greater are slight. “Thankfully, most of the time these don't need surgery,” Alaia said over the phone. “Thankfully, most of the time these heal very nicely with a period of relative rest. “If this was something more — like a rotator cuff injury or labrum injury or something soft tissue related that may or may not heal — I think that can potentially bode a little bit more of a negative prognosis, or it could leave the future a little bit more undecided. Bones heal really well in the human body.” https://nypost.com/2022/04/01/medical-professional-believes-jacob-degrom-avoided-the-worst/https://nypost.com/2022/04/01/medical-professional-believes-jacob-degrom-avoided-the-worst/ Oh, good. Uh.

I'm disproportionately angry about this deGrom thing. Like it's his fault, or mine, or anyone's. I'm just fucking mad, is all.

You just had to go predicting things, didnt'cha NOW LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I love this girl on the sidelines interviewing Cano. I hope Steve Gelbs gets deported to some faraway place and we get more of her.

Started this game late because of a school function so I'm still in the fourth inning.

The latest story from Scott Bore-us is that https://metsmerizedonline.com/2022/03/morning-briefing-conforto-discussions-restarted-a-week-ago.html/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=morning-briefing-conforto-discussions-restarted-a-week-agohe waited to negotiate as he dealt with an offseason shoulder injury. I think he's trying to save face here. I doubt at this point that he plays in a Mets uni in 2022. They seem to have moved on from him. If they were to bring him back, though, I'd be on board with it as a good move. Especially on a one year sweetheart deal where he can go prove 2021 was not a fluke.

I mean, Come. On.

Manager/email list indicates the user as having a hotmail email address including cspringer26 as the user name. Maybe JCL's son ?

Home opener is on Tuesday, April 5th. Forecast for the weather looks, for April in the 'Cuse, somewhat promising? (Low-mid 50s and cloudy). Mookie Wilson is in town to throw out the first pitch and sign autographs on the concourse. Seawolf & I will be in attendance along the first base line.

I fully believed tonight's game was televised. Stupid tiny colored schedule boxes. I can't read.

Happy to meet him on the concourse here at the 'Cuse and buy this guy a Saranac and a Hoffman's Hot Dog

He slays ham, that one

Only management or front office staff or ownership (or some combination thereof) comprised of short sighted jackasses would keep a font of information like Mex off the field. That's some fucked up ignorant shit right there.

Having the DH at least will help fill out a roster of hitters now. But we need an even # for sure. Bye weeks are stupid. This just in -- Seawolf has 2 teams, probably one more than he needs.

I can do Monday 4/4 at 9 PM, sure.

Best days for me are any from Monday, Tuesday or Thursday, April 4th/5th/7th, starting 7:30 or later (but not too late, I'd prefer to start nlt 8:30 if it's me).

I'm not. Too much money at stake. It's a pretty stupid rule when applied to outdoor sports and only the home teams. Kylie Irving benefits the most from the fact that the lockout ended, is how I'd spin it.

Pitchers look good. I'd be happy to see some more hitting. Not much tonight besides a flub RBI for Lindor and a less than impressive sac fly by McNeil.
