Rubin reports Niese has a sore knee and Gsellman will pitch if needed.

Looks like a toss up.

I imagine many routes to reach Gooden were taken before they decided they had to dress him down in public. Last time we saw Doc I mentioned he looked gaunt. He looks worse than gaunt here. He looks emaciated.

Doc is very likely currently using. I doubt with all the opiates in him he can shit.

The Knights of Niese looking for three in in a row. After all, you never know when their might be a spanish inquisition.

I forgot the venue, Dooooooo

Rainout theater?

I believe the XFL kinda did that with the "scramble."

A nice night to make it two in a row. Both pitchers have ten wins.

WE ARE WINNING.

These are your 2016 New York Mets! One here and on to St. Louis. LGM

Slip slidin away.

What goes around comes around.

Seth Lugo? Are you shittin me?

The health of our pitchers will shake itself out whether we compete or fold.

Well, maybe the change of scenery will help. We know all about the pitchers so good luck hitters.

And while he's not officially out for the season, if there's not even going to be any throwing again until around Sept 1st ... Basically what I have seen is Dr. Andrews didn't find anything "devastating" in the elbow. There are many many sensitive nerve endings where the surgery was done and they become irrated. Maybe Zack has to pitch through that discomfort and convince himself the elbow will not pop.

Not much for anyone, yet.

I would have played Flores over Loney tonight and bat T.J. fourth.

We won.

Spend the $500 a night at the Otsega Hotel. Golf course along the lake and the best breakfast you may ever find.

Bejeezus, what happened to our team. Oye The only thing missing is Eric Campbell. Anyway, have at it men.

But I'm stunned by the counts and situations Mets are swinging in. The Old Mole shared a great story once, that Wes Westrum didn't have a take sign. He sent his players up there taking by default, until they got a swing sign. Rehire Westrum! Will you dig Wes up?
