Your lips to God's ears. But somehow these callups always seem to pitch 3 hit shutouts against us.

McNeil activated, Gsellman to IL, Tarpley 27th man. So for today at least Mets will carry a 5 man bench and 14 pitchers. Will be interesting to see whether they send Tarpley back down, or demote a position player.
Well at least it's not his major league debut. Those always get us. I think that was during their recent homestand in relief. And that he got roughed up.
Awful !!!!
3-0 lazy fly ball
Batting 280 with 14 HR. Maybe
210 NOPE !!!

Then let's put Alonso in the OF since Dom is the one who is sacrificing for the team by playing in his unnatural position in order to keep his bat in the lineup .
Imagine if deGrom was healthy this year. How crazy a pitcher with less than 100 inning can throw shutout ball for 5 innings and only see his era drop .04
Does anyone follow the power rankings week to week? CBS Sports talked about the NL East, and their belief is the Mets will not run away with the east because the rest of the division has underperformed. I think the writer ignores the fact the Mets have played the majority of the season with backups and castoffs, and somehow they are still in first. What do you really think will happen when the starters get back and hit to support this pitching staff? They are likely to run away from the pack.
Atlanta: great offense, bad bullpen, and OK starting pitching.
Washington: good offense, questionable starting pitching, and overachieving right now.
Philadelphia: inconsistent offense, pitching is questionable from starters to the bullpen. Wheeler being the exception.
Miami: always have young arms, but over 162 games, the youth shows its shortcomings. Streaky offense.

I agree with the writer. I think the pitching staff will come back to earth. Certainly deGrom cannot be expected to maintain his unworldly pace. Stroman, Walker, and (in general) the bullpen have also over performed. Be prepared for some reversion to the mean.
I fall more in with cuff
I get that the pitching may not or most likely don’t pitch like this all year. But they are pitching to a 3.1 ish era- worst you would expect would be to give up an additional 1/2 a run per game. Let’s call it 3.6ish the rest of the way.
we have been without McNeil, Davis, Nimmo, Conforto for most of the year. They should account for at least that 1/2 run a game.
Getting as well as you could have asked for from Eickhoff. Actually better after he gutted his way thru that 1st inning. How about score a run or two and put your foot on this team's neck.
