OT: Official 2021 NY Mets Season Thread

Trade dead line is always a fun time of the year. I'd always take my family to OCMD and walking along the beach was Joe Mcillvaine, talking with the Orioles GM. I told my wife expect a Mets trade since the Mets GM was here in Ocean City. Next day the trade was announced. I'm thinking that was the
David Segui trade in 1995.
Sounded precautionary.
In the post game presser, McNeil basically said he was fine and that his exit was just the way the game played out. Which makes some sense. Guillorme was already in the game, having pinch hit earlier in the inning. Pillar would certainly be entering the game as a defensive replacement for Smith who was at bat. So why not?
We'll know soon enough.
Once Carrasco returns, and with Jake on the near horizon, I think the need for a starter diminishes. I would rather see the Mets go after another late inning arm for the pen.
No surprise there. Two guys cut from the same cloth and a LOT of personal history there. Garrett likes to stick out his chest and yell after big strikeouts and Baez likes to toss his bat, stand and admire home runs and stare down pitchers. Both are the kind of guys you only like if they are on your team.
What am I missing on this guy? Certainly has no stats that jump out at you, neither this season or career-wise. Just somebody to provide length? I get that he pitched 3-4 seasons in Colorado but still. Hope they wouldn't give up much to get a guy with a season and career era in the mid 4's.
I would want to trade him too? Not sure how he could help us as any pitcher that gives up an average of over 4 runs a game will lose every time out for us.
I wonder if Tyler Anderson's middle initial is B. Maybe Rojas knew something all along that we didn't?
If a trade is completed by say 4:00, I'm sure that Uncle Steve will have a private jet ready to go. Worst case, use Drew or Yennsy as a two inning opener while he gets dressed and acclimated.

Hell, Drew (gopher ball) Smith could give up 2-3 homers in that time.
Drew Smith is a 4A pitcher at best. He is up with the Mets because he's out of options. That's a piss poor reason to keep a pitcher around at the expense of others who are likely to be better.
Kumar Rocker deal reportedly in jeopardy. Mets concerned about results of his physical. They must sign him by Sunday. If not, he goes back to Vandy, Mets lose his rights, but get a compensation pick in 2022.
Just being drafted by the Mets will lead to injury, let alone actually playing for them.
Well this is odd, since Eickhoff elected free agency when he cleared waivers. C'est la vie said the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell...
I am sure we must have won a bidding war to retain his services. He probably had ten other suitors. My guess is he chose the Mets knowing he would probably suffer a freak injury by just stepping onto the field, get transferred to the 60 day DL and get paid for the rest of the season.
Tyler Anderson to Phils close to being done. Net win/win for us. We don't have to pitch him and will go up against him for the division!
Sounds like we'll be serving 'Cookie(s)' for the first black jersey game on Friday.
As ordinary as he is he's already beaten us once. The game in which he also hit a home run. I'm sure the Phils are aware of that too and our struggles against lefthanded pitchers in general.
He rrsi
He opted for free agency rather than go back to AAA. As I'm sure he didn't have many options he resigned with the Mets. Hey,at least he gets paid for tonight.
Now I more fully understand why Royals and Angels took pitchers ahead of Rocker.
Mets are sizeable underdogs both tonight and tomorrow night.That's odd for a first place team.
The Mets couldn't find a body in the city morgue instead of bringing Eickhoff back? 😕
He may break a record for the amount of times he is DfA’d by the same team only to keep returning
