PECOTA loves the 2019 NEW YORK METS

oh, the horror

not seeing a long-term problem. yet.

well I’m going to Citi Field on Friday as a casual observer

it sounds like fun right now, *cough*

fangraphs and the ringer both have stories about how shitty the mets are today

also apparently todd frazier and adam eaton have a feud? this is delightful news

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)

We all know the Wilpons are demons, but so are most pro sports owners.

that was quite the seesaw battle last night

can't believe this team lets Adeiny bat in a 9th-inning tie tho

RAJAI!

joining Nimmo

Canó down. McNeil down. Two more key Mets to the injured list:https://t.co/88hdJtV2PH

O joy, i guess Adeiny is the 2B for now

Lacking outfield depth, the Mets just claimed Aaron Altherr off waivers from the Giants. He'll presumably be active tomorrow night against the Tigers.

— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) May 23, 2019

he's 1-for-31 this season. but hey, at least it was a double

GOGOGOMEZ

Altherr will only be around til Conforto is activated phaps

now with added ervin santana

Jesus, i don't even want to look at the numbers

it's a minor league deal, mook, don't do that to me

and...

When Matt Kemp's signing becomes official, he will report to Triple-A Syracuse, source says.

The Mets are trying to catch lightning in a bottle with the 34-year-old outfielder:https://t.co/lkgIE8GPkd

Adeiny with a 3-run homer? Who needs Matt Kemp?

BadGirlRihRih sure don't

mets radio update: howie rose just learned the word "cosplay."

Ah yes, our clutch home run hitters: Carlos Gomez, Rajai Davis, Aaron Altherr, Adeiny Hecchavaria, and now Tomas Nido.

Brandon Nimmo is suffering from a bulging disc in his neck and whiplash. As of now, his timetable remains unknown.

Polar Bear Pete for ROY?

Diaz coughs one up

apparently mets twitter spent the morning freaking out about jarred kelenic

is that the guy Seattle got?

yeah

Callaway pulled Thor and second-guessed himself after the game. Sounds done.

José Reyes & Rubén Gotay

Aug. 26, 2016:
José Reyes & Asdrubal Cabrera

June 6, 2019:
Amed Rosario & Dominic Smith

METS WIN

DIAZ IS GARBAGE

love the metsness of the jed lowrie saga

- his former agent is the GM
- no one seems to know what's wrong with him or when he will recover
- having him actually show up would probably be a downgrade

unless they make him the closer

This bullpen is certainly a disaster in a half, with Mets losing in very Metsian ways.

I'm coming around to the thinking that JD Davis was a good pickup.

Weekend with #mets: The GM won't say if Jed Lowrie has a new injury, despite suggesting there is one; Brandon Nimmo now seeing neck specialists for injury team has said was merely "soreness"; and team won't reveal MRI results for Noah Syndergaard that was taken Sunday AM

The Mets have called a full-blown team meeting this afternoon -- not exactly standard operating procedure before a game. Appears to be a bigger roster shakeup than just Daniel Zamora, as well. The team has no reserves or bullpen arms listed on its clubhouse lineup card right now.

— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) June 18, 2019

meeting appears to have worked

Jacob deGrom just moved into seventh place on the Mets' all-time strikeout list:

1. Tom Seaver, 2,541
2. Dwight Gooden, 1,875
3. Jerry Koosman, 1,799
4. Sid Fernandez, 1,449
5. David Cone, 1,172
6. Ron Darling, 1,148
7. Jacob deGrom, 1,109
