  1. Would have to trade for him and quite honestly I’m not sure giving up prospects for him would be wise. He’s really declined over the past 2 years. Ill have to scour the waiver wire and check my Mets message boards and see if I hear anything
  2. I want Realmutto! Mets have the pieces despite how “the experts” value the farm.
  3. TDL errr I mean TDA partually torn UCL. Most likely we’ve seen his last days as a Met if he needs surrgery. Would also explain why his throwing has been even worse than usual at trying to catch guys stealing. He just never could stay on the field long enough to show what he could have been. 2015 was a nice season for him and 2 huge playoff HR’s that helped the Mets take the lead and win but the guy just can’t stay off the DL. Nido called up. Looks like Plawecki will get the lions share of PT. I’m betting Sandy isn’t content with that and will be monitoring the trade wire.
  4. Not unless Logo and Gsvllman get burned out and how the off days are managed. Callaway is carrying an extra reliever no in case of this. Something to keep an eye on. Lugo and Gsleeman are the key, they can go multiple innings. However I do agree we are going to need length at some point. I was hoping last night but that did not happen. LGM.
  5. LGM!!!!!!! I love this team!
  6. Interesting move today...Nimmo sent down for Sewald. Before everyone freaks out I will try to be the voice of reason. With Lagares emerging as a viable option to not only be a starter again when called upon and the Mets facing 2 lefties this week....AND....I think they do not trust Wheeler on Wednesday going more than 5 I can see why an arm is being summoned from Vegas. While Nimmo is a curious move he just seems to be the odd man out right now. Also...perhaps they find some "phantom DL" move for Sewald who has not pitched since the STL series and Nimmo does not even leave South Beach and can be called back up immediately and avoid the 10 day call up rule? Just spitballing. I know it is not a popular move and I love Nimms a lot too but the new staff earns some credence IMO.I hate playing with a short bench but there must be a reason. I'm not saying I love the move...just willing to wait and see what happens.
  7. Agree on catcher however that’s the one position in MLB that there is a scarcity of. Nido is the best option in the minors and been thought highly of but has been up and down as far as consistency goes. He’s here in Binghamton now and off to a decent start. Lobaton in Vegas is just a backup. Our best bet as Met fans is to pray Nido makes some noise in the minors this year.
  8. What a breath of fresh air a new manager is. Prepared, diligent, intelligent and articulate. Pushing all the right buttons. I read he asked all the vets after the late night DC game if they wanted off and all of them said absolutely not so you know damn well they are buying into him and got his back. With that being said Ces suposssedly has flu like symptoms and could use a night off. Looks like Noah developed a blister which explains why he hit a wall in the 5th...I have full confidence in Jake tonight going at least 7 (prefer 8) and giving the pen a night off. This team os VERY VERY LIKABLE! Also I was pretty hard on Agon in ST...I would like my crow served fried at a Bills tailgate this fall please. LGM!!
  9. Lenny was an unsung hero on those Valentine teams
  10. I was just as surprised as him. How bout our Metsies fellas??? 5-1 to start the season and kicked the teeth in on the Nats on their opener? Wow! Way way early but things are clicking. And who is this Robles guy?? LGM!
  11. Brooooooooooos
  12. I agree we are going to start needing more length or the pen will get fried. I think once we get some normal weather finally that will happen. Goodness Gsellman and Lugo look like they are going to be absolute deadly weapons outta the pen!!! Luckily this was the first and only one for the Mets this year.
  13. I do not care how easy it is to create a fake profile. It's complete and utter garbage that this is how you have to view it. Not to mention you do not even get Gary, Keith and Ron but instead we are getting John Kruk and some other tool.
  14. After another disappointing start for Matz on Easter and a snowed out game, Mets will push Noah to Wednesday (Facebook Live only by the way) and give the ball to Harvey tonight. Here's to hoping a contract walk year motivates Matt to show us something resembling at least 2015 Harvey as I know we will never see 2013 Harvey. And yes...Wednesdays game is Facebook only. Even for those with MLB.TV out of market. Facebook purchased the rights to 25 games this year and this is the first and only Mets one. I'm not happy about it but I guess at least get it out of the way? Then again the weather looks like crap today and tomorrow in NYC so who knows.
  15. My dream is that the Twins fall out of the race and the Mets trade for Dozier!
  16. Just had this same conversation with my father on Cabby. I did like the 2 walks but yes he does look slow and out of shape.
  17. Well today began on a REALLY sad note with the passing of Trusty Rusty. Boy that man could handle a bat! Laugh angle my ass! But as the day went on and the Mets game unraveled it quickly put a smile on this big Met fans fans face. Today: 15 K's and only 1 walk...1!!! By the Mets pitchers. Incredible. Mets today 9 Runs 9 Walks 7 singles 2 doubles zero homers ! Obviously it's only 1 game of a marathon but that was GREAT!! LGM!
  18. And LGM!!!
  19. Oh the irony of your screename and your post! I am hearing mid 50's and afternoon showers possibly but not an all day soaker. Oh well...looks like it will be a wait and see. I agree Gugny but I do see why they do it. It might come into play this year but you know the Wilpons do everything they can to play. That means get all those fans in the stadium, parked, spending money during a 3 hour delay only to call it off and send them home while they count the tills and see $$ in their eyes.
  20. For what offense he brings to the table , he can work in CF even though he’s not a good glover out there was my thinking. Honestly all the metric sites have him ranked as an average CF or a very very slight tick below at worst in CF. I too wish Lagares would have made that next jump. What a frustrating player. Such poor plate discipline and just cant get on base. Even when he does he has no base stealing ability either. Unfortunately he’s a 5th outfielder at this point in his career and it was one of the few Sandy contracts given our way to early. I miss old Juan!
  21. To be fair and I know it’s a SSS, Agon started showing a pulse at the end of ST. 4-14. There is no other 1B on the roster. Flores isn’t an everyday 1B, he’s a platoon. I’m willing to be patient (like 2-3 weeks into April). agree on everything else
  22. As much as I love Ces, he for whatever reason will only play LF. He’s perfect for RF IMO. I think Flores will play 1B until Smith is ready if Agon is that shot, I don’t see Bruce playing more than a handful of games there.
  23. So far everything about Callaway and Eiland have been a breath of fresh air. They demoted Robles and Wheeler based on poor springs as they should have bwen. Meritocracy indeed. Gonzalez started hitting better right at the end of ST so let’s hope that continues into the regular season although I expect his leash is only a few weeks long. Sandy was on NY radio and said if he doesn’t hit that Bruce would be making some starts at 1B. Other Met nuggets from the weekend .... Matz pitches great today in his final tuneup....after his first 2 awful ST starts he’s been lights out. Phillip Evans made the team as the 25th man and well deserved. Not sure what they will do with him when Conforto return off the 10 day DL (retroactive a few days from the last few days of ST. Mets signed LH RP Fernando Abad to a minor league deal today. I have a feeling that will be their other lefty specialist out of the pen once he’s up to snuff. Not “Abad” signing. ST is over and Opening Day is on Thursday! I’m cautiously optimistic and as always pumped for baseball ! LGM
  24. I followed him on Twitter until I realized it was his publicist. One of my favorite Mets from that era but my god that guy is a space cadet. Anyone watch the ST game yesterday with Giminez? 19 year old absolute STUD prospect from the IFA draft a few years ago. He is going to be a beast. Just wait until he fills out. They are going to be pretty aggressive with him and start him at St Lucie this year. Hoping he gets promoted to Binghamton say in July or August. Can't wait.
