Misterbluesky Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 Matz will have to do a mental cleanse after today's outing.
row_33 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 How are the Mets looking this year? The local Jays are up the creek with the BOS/NYY franchises balling.

If the Mets were in the AL East they'd need a paddle. If everything breaks right the Mets have a legit shot at taking the NL East. But at the plate we appear to be way too left-handed and after DeGrom the starting pitching has questions with regard to durability (Thor), believability (Wheeler), consistency (Matz) and sucktitude (Vargas). 1
Misterbluesky Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 Rain today,off day tomorrow.Leaves us with just 5 games left.
SinceThe70s Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 Mets will be changing the address of Citi Field to 41 Seaver Way and also planning on a statue for him. https://www.newsday.com/sports/baseball/mets/tom-seaver-citi-field-address-statue-1.28770602 1
Gugny Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Mets extend deGrom 5 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This absolutely HAD to be done before the season started. Excellent move. No idea what terms are yet. https://www.mlb.com/mets/news/jacob-degrom-extension-with-mets 1

Padres did the same thing with Fernando Tatis Jr. I'm not sure if any team held back a rookie to gain an extra year of control. This is pure speculation on my part, but with the collective bargaining agreement up for renegotiation in 2021 maybe the owners plan on giving up the service time loop-hole. 1
SinceThe70s Posted March 27, 2019 Posted March 27, 2019 I heard Mickey on the way home today. Alonso is starting against the righty tomorrow and will bat high in the order, probably 2nd or 3rd. 1 1

Mets had 5 hits today...4 of them came from guys who never had a hit for the Mets before today. DeGrom picks up where he left off last year and Calloway does the smart thing and limits him to 93 pitches. And I just noticed that Lugo struck out all three batters he faced. 2

SinceThe70s Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) Another stat from today that I just came across. DeGrom had 10 strikeouts and Scherzer had 12. First time since 1970 that opening day starters each had 10 or more strikeouts (Dave McNally and Sudden Sam McDowell). That's really surprising to me. Nearly half a century.

SmokinES3 Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 I'm genuinely excited. This lineup is excellent. 1

Watching him and Alonso in Binghamton was enjoyable. You could tell Alonso had a major league swing. His line drive power in person is impressive. 1
