Dom is one of the best hitters period against lefties. Batting over .300 against then but the book is everything in baseball it seems. Tonight kind of seems like a pitching mismatch on paper. Their ace against an emergency pitcher. But we have our battle mojo going right now so we'll see. Not conceding anything.

I thought some here still want to trade Dom for a bag of balls and a Single A player?
over the last month, Pillar hasn't earned much besides being a backup OF. he has batted 161 with 3 HR. Unless Dom just needs a breather, Pillar should not be in the starting lineup.
Stupid Rojas. Should have anticipated that Stock would have pulled up lame running to first, and pinch hit for him. The man has no feel for the game.
So we welcome the return of Stephen Nogosek, last seen in 2019, when he rocked a 10.80 ERA in seven appearances.

Also, ICYMI, Mets brought up Geoff Hartlieb to replace Peraza who is on the IL. So as of today (it changes daily) Mets have a 15 man staff and 3 man bench.
Geoff Hartlieb. How the hell do I know? Look him up yourself.

All in all you couldn't have asked for anything better than what this collection of pitchers has given us so far tonight. 3 runs over 6 innings is not bad at all. Just need to put some runs up.
Especially when the Cincy's pitchers can't throw a strike. The first two Mets' batters walked. Alonso should have walked before his gift (error). McNeil saved Cincy's pitcher as the plate was moving on him. 😫
Rojas is getting blamed for tonight. I mean come on lol.
Too bad tonight. The bullpen mob gave them a chance to steal it. But it was the same old story - 0 for 7 with RISP.
My guess at tomorrow's transaction: Stock to IL, Blankenhorn back up.

Mets' GM: Starting Pitching "Top Priority" Before Trade Deadline
Bolstering the starting rotation is the "top priority" for the Mets in advance of the July 30 trade deadline, acting …

I get the feeling there will be 4 teams in the NL East with each having a chance to win the pennant going into the last week of the season.
The next 10 days leading up to the trade deadline are going to be wild.
Mets need pitching and a solid power hitter to solidify lineup
Phillies need a stopper
Braves can use an OF
Nats can use an OF.
Of all the teams chasing us, I fear the Braves the most......even without Acuna......and they will be aggressive at the deadline.....
Put on your seatbelts........it's going to be a wild ride!!!!!
Mets need to get healthy, especially the pitching staff.
The Phillies' bullpen is a mess. They need more than a closer, and their defense will let them down when it counts the most.
The Braves starting pitching is suspect, but the bullpen may be equal to the Phillies.
The Nats starting pitching is key for them. It's hard to depend on guys who are always hurt. Age is catching up with their starters.
Just the mention of being a Met leads to an injury, lol
We're gonna miss Peraza. But let's take this one this afternoon and then head back to NY for a big homestand. Not only because it's highlighted by 4 big games vs the Braves but also because there will be some new additions to the team over the next 10 days. I'm sure of it. I wonder if we see our old pal Steven Matz in the Toronto series? Update: Just checked. Yep Matz is scheduled to pitch on Saturday. Tijuan Walker for our side. An ex-Met vs an ex-Bluejay.

Matz will of course spin a two hit shutout now that he is an ex-Met.
Just like Harvey did. 😉
