Can someone explain why the Mets technically have only 3 OFs on the roster while carrying 6 infielders? Jake Hager is the infielder the Mets brought up while sending down Khalil Lee. What's with this roster management by the Mets?
Hager is a utility guy who played some CF at Syracuse. How well, I cannot say.
 
Shift’d

Right to second baseman spot
Why the F are you pitching away when playing to pull ????????????????????
 
I'm pretty sure Rojas did not get to where he is by being stupid.

The pitch-around has been part of baseball as long as I remember. And at my age, my long-term memory is pretty good. (Don't ask me where I left my keys though.) Zunino is a free swinger. I have no problem with trying to get him to chase. I probably would have pointed him to first base after ball two, but that's a nitpick, and had nothing to do with the outcome.
Wait until Fall- there will be hourly Sitkowski and Anthony Russo (Mich State) updates on the boards.

Except that Russo and Art really don't fit a Gleeson offense so even if they succeed elsewhere, they most likely never would have here. As for KElenic- that swing could fit any offense.
BTW- with watching the Met's this year- I would have put a couple of starters on my cannot not trade list last year- at this point, there is no one on this team outside of deGrom that I wouldn't trade.

Walker. He is a steal for the money the are paying him. Wont give Polar Pete away either. Doubt our bench player fill ins Pillar and Villar get us much compared to how much they currently mean to the team. Other than that let the trade talks begin

Even Pete isn't showing me that he is a all decade type player. Very one dimensional at this point. I do love him but...I would listen to other teams.

Rojas is one-dimensional as a manager. Can he be part if a trade?

I think I have to take a break from the Mets because Rojas' decisions, as well as moves by management, give me splitting headaches.

One thought from my years as a coach. A coach is only as good as the talent around him. At the same time, the coach has to put the players in a position to perform at a high level. As of right now, Rojas is sending some players out there to fight with one hand tied behind their backs.
 
Something tells me that there wouldn’t have been a Rat or Racoon argument if Joe Girardi was the rightful manager of the Mets...

 
Where the hell is the power on this team so far. The lack of long balls is glaring. Its enough that when they hit one its generally a solo shot, but those have been few and far between.
 
What the hell do these players do in the off season? I've never seen so many on the IL across baseball. It's what, 25% of the season, and players can't stay on the field, unreal. I guess it's all about the money and the next long term contract. The old adage of " just tape it and play" is long gone. For example, I'm in 3 Fantasy baseball leagues, each with different rules on how many players are allowed on the IL, and I've exceeded the limit on everyone, with more players waiting to be added. What a bunch of softies this generation of ballplayers are.
 
Is this the same medical staff who screwed up Reyes multiple injuries back in the day and turned Wright’s injured shoulder into Spinal Stenosis in 2015?

No I believe that staff was turned over long ago. Still sucks but hoping Davis and Nimmo are ready soon. I saw elsewhere that Lugo may be back by the end of the month.
 
Per multiple reports, Conforto and McNeil will be replaced by Khalil Lee and Johneswy (sp?) Fargas. I don't think we get the best of that exchange. But on we go. LGM.

Someone will have to be lopped off the 40 man to make room for Fargas.

If only we signed Springer, we would be in much better...oh wait, never mind lol
