cespedes also the first DH to hit a HR in a game between two NL teams

Jeffrey Paternostro of BP on David Peterson:
Appearing this early means the Mets are burning a service time year with Peterson. Personally I would not be overly concerned with clawing back his age-30 season, given the stuff and projected top line numbers, but that is a thing teams do now as a matter of course. He may not pitch well enough to stay up all year anyway, or Marcus Stroman’s injury may end up minor enough to render this discussion moot in a couple weeks. It is unlikely to be spectacular, but a lefty who can take the ball every fifth day and potentially post a mid-4s ERA is by far the Mets best option at the moment.
― brooklyn suicide cult (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 28 July 2020 17:33 (three years ago) link
surprising -- my understanding is that the service-time cutoff is literally tonight, i.e. peterson will earn a year of time by pitching today and toronto's nate pearson will *not* earn a year of time after debuting tomorrow
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 28 July 2020 17:49 (three years ago) link
The Mets will allow Jacob deGrom to throw 80-100 pitches tonight, per Luis Rojas. He should be good for about six innings.— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) July 29, 2020

Ha, yeah, I'm a mutt. Flyers/Sixers/Mets. I watched every out of the 1986 WS, but wasn't really a big baseball fan until I moved to NY in 2001 and I wasn't going to root for the fucking Yankees.

Aren't you a Pens and Mets fan or am I mistaken?
― Tōne Locatelli Romano (PBKR), Thursday, 30 July 2020 00:16 (three years ago) link
definitely pens fan; being a pirates fan is pointless, but
i like the mets and yeah obviously one can't move to new york and root for the yankees. i don't like the mets well enough to get cable just for SNY, though, so i almost never actually see them
at least you haven't been infected by the knicks (nor have i)
― mookieproof, Thursday, 30 July 2020 00:37 (three years ago) link
I had/have family in NYC and spent a few weeks every summer when I was a kid, so I always had a connection.
To really blow your mind, I'm also an AZ Cardinals fan.

This team looks identical to last year with maybe a better lineup and worse starting pitching.

The New York Mets have not been able to contact Yoenis Cespedes, who did not report to Truist Park for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Braves, according to general manager Brodie Van Wagenen.
"He did not reach out to management with any explanation for his absence," Van Wagenen said in a statement. "Our attempts to contact him have been unsuccessful."

Sources: Jeff McNeil’s knee X-ray is negative, so the hope is it’s just a bad bruise. Will go for MRI to confirm though. McNeil, the heart of the team, made a run-saving catch while diving into the wall in 1st inning.— Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) August 13, 2020

You could probably make a case for about 3-6 players being the heart of the team.
