Source: The Mets have acquired right-handed Rays reliever Wilmer Font for cash or a player to be named.Font throws in the mid-90s with two distinct braking pitches. He had a 5.79 ERA with the Rays and offers the Mets another bullpen option.— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) May 6, 2019

The Mets have designated outfielder Keon Broxton for assignment.In addition to Carlos Gomez, reliever Paul Sewald is up from Syracuse. Michael Conforto goes to the seven-day IL, as expected.Broxton, an offseason trade acquisition, hit just .143/.208/.163 with the Mets.— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) May 17, 2019

Now the Mets are saying this might change, and that the probable pitcher is to be determined. So less than six hours before game time, they still don't know who is starting.— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) May 20, 2019

rosenthal this morning basically called on mickey to be fired and replaced by a veteran like dusty or scioscia
i don't think it's mickey's fault that the entire rotation is pitching below league average or that cano is being out-hit by amed rosario, but i guess he does seem in over his head

Good news, at least, on Michael Conforto (concussion), who has been symptom-free for the last three days. The Mets were awaiting word from their medical team on Monday afternoon regarding what sorts of activities Conforto can start to do, and when.— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) May 20, 2019
btw this ought to make all the snarling old men happy
Mickey Callaway said Robinson Canó is on the bench today in part because of his lack of hustle over the weekend."He understands that it's unacceptable to not run balls out," Callaway said. "He understands that he needs to do that at all times."— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) May 20, 2019

Michael Baumann in The Ringer piece:
"to a certain extent this is just a decent team in a rough patch that happens to play in the rubber-walled confines of the New York media bubble"
Interesting definition of "shitty" (and Baumann hates NYC with every fiber of his being)
