That there is a reliever called Holder is fantastic (couldn’t be bothered to find the Yankees thread).

Surprised they let Adrian go before Reyes.

it's Reyes' birthday, so maybe tomorrow, I pray

Assuming the Mets don't come back in the 9th, Jacob deGrom will be the first pitcher since Randy Johnson of the 1999 D-backs to make 5 straight starts of 7+ IP and ≤ 2 ER, and see his team lose each one.— Andrew Simon (@AndrewSimonMLB) June 13, 2018

mets signed their first-round pick, high school OF jarred kelenic
pre-draft comp was 'Mark Kotsay w/more athleticism'
― mookieproof, Friday, 15 June 2018 19:06 (six years ago) link
lmao i was clowning my mets loving friend for that. basically by saying he's like mark kotsay then doing the super sarcastic OOOOOOOHH! like 8 times
why does anyone hang out with me i wonder
― challops trap house (Will M.), Friday, 15 June 2018 20:29 (six years ago) link
tbf mark kotsay was a pretty good player before he turned 30
but yeah you'd maybe like to aim higher with a #6 pick

I talked to Davey Johnson about baseball things and mostly kept it together. I can tell you that he is very smart and still holds Wally Backman in very high regard. https://t.co/DsBUzL8U5c— David Roth (@david_j_roth) June 15, 2018

First time #Mets have had 7 hits in a game since June 2. It breaks franchise record 9-game streak with 6 hits or fewer. The previous record was 7 in 1992 and 1962.— Wayne Randazzo (@WayneRandazzo) June 16, 2018

Most improbable win of the year? Down by 2 w/2 outs in the 9th, no one on, and Reyes/Bautista coming up. Somehow get 4 runs.

Nimmo w/ 2 HR and 4 hits tonight, up to .287/.410/.603
Watch as the Mets inch back toward .500 and con some into thinking they're a WC contender.
― the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 19 June 2018 06:52 (six years ago) link
I’d prefer them to get back into some kind of contention, if only to shut down all the rampant DeGrom trade speculation.Nimmo is a few games away from qualifying for league leading stats.

yeah it's kind of a bummer because he won't make anywhere near the money he deserves. relatively speaking, of course, i mean he'll be fine
