didnt get a chance to watch last night but what the hell is wrong with deGrom...something tells me we will be seeing him back on the IL again soon with something serious. He has just fallen off a cliff after his 1st 2 starts
We were there. Waited for the start and then left in the top of the 3rd (around 11pm). Staying any later would have cost us an hour in train schedule time and the way deGrom looked, it wasn’t going to be worth it.
Mets going with the loser roster tonight.
d'Arnaud catching. McNeil outfield, Davis at 3B.

Just wait until Mickey Moron’s Frazier-Lageres-Broxton-pitcher bottom of the lineup tomorrow.
Can’t stand d’Arnauld but Ramos is not as good of a catcher as I thought he’d be. Ramos can hit but they are mostly singles and then he just clogs the bases. Both poor defensively. d’Arnaud is barely a backup anymore.
Davis is horrible defensivley but Frazier can’t hit. The Mets have a choice between two half-assed players there.
McNeil needs to be in the lineup but I agree he’s a horrible outfielder. It’s fun to watch McNeil and Alonso but this is a poorly built team right now, especially with the pitching meltdowns.
Well, at least all 3 Amigos have posted in this thread. TKPlus,Proud of Something, and MrsBee
Aces of the Mets starting pitching- Wheeler, Matz, Vargas. LOL.
Yanks were on WOR 3 seasons ago. Didn't know Mets were PIX last year.
Maybe they should have traded Syndergaard if/when they had a chance.
Was thinking the same. He hasn’t learned how to pitch yet. He still just tries to strike everyone out but he doesn’t get many swing and misses.
Just about ready to shut it off again. It’s also pretty sad when the Yankees are plowing through the AL while staring their triple A players and we don’t even have anyone to bring up. I’m waiting for the Mets to offer Alonso for Joey Votto.

Been like that for a few years now. I think they alternate weekends.
Familia does not seem to know how to handle routine infield plays.
Mets have plenty of AAA guys to bring up if needed. Syracuse has a whole lineup full of them: Gomez, Blanco, R. Davis, Rivera, Espinosa, Hecheverria, Herrera, etc. And that's without even mentioning God's favorite player, who's currently hitting a buck fifty. We have organizational depth aplenty. What we don't have is PROSPECTS, but that's a whole 'nother story.
The Mets for years were on Ch 9, and of course from the start of WFAN. Why do the Yankees keep stealing the Mets TV and Radio stations?:joy:
Keep in mind- Alonso, Rosario, Nimmo, Conforto, Smith . who are already up. I hate the way this organization runs it's develpment but we really did just bring up a pretty impressive group of very young home grown players.
Why in the world did we pay d'Arnaud as much as we did to backup Ramos only to cut him 3 weeks in and also trade Plawecki who is a much better backup C. I am not impressed with much of BVW moves to this point.
Wow did not see that coming. I thought he'd get more than 23 at bats.
Brings to mind the strange case of Devin Mesoraco. When he didn't make the team out of spring training, he demanded his release. Mets declined to grant it and told him to report to Syracuse. He refused, the Mets put him in Restricted List limbo, where he remains to this day. Had he shown up in Syracuse and played well, he'd likely be back in the bigs by now. I guess there's a moral there somewhere.
At least there is ONE difference between BVW and Sandy. Last year, TDA wouldve stayed with the Mets and had a bobblehead day for him in August.
