World Series or Bust! with the Coke Party Patrol: 2016 New York Mets

she's a regular since midsummer, no? seeing complaints on FB that espn team is making it sound like KCR is the only team that scouts, and similar witless stuff.

Mets radio good 'nuff for me.

She (Jessica Mendoza) did three games last year, but she's a regular starting this year though.

mendoza is good

mets outfield is not good

bartolo time is good

good takes there by Cespedes.

now that's more like it

as a society, what should we do about Marlins Man?

it's so crazy to me how a professional baseball player could drop a ball like that

yeah well try it

@AdamRubinESPN
Rusty Staub, John Franco and Edgardo Alfonzo will help raise the NL championship banner before the #Mets' home opener.

Thor yields leadoff triple to Escobar, Ks next 3

DANIEL WHO?

so syndergaard throws 95 mph sliders now

http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/noah-syndergaard-is-aroldis-chapman-now/

Eric: Keith, have you ever seen a 95mph slider before? Thor looks even better than advertised in your opinion who is the first pitcher the Mets lock up long term or do you think they will wait until they’re all eligible for free agency.

Klaw: No and I’m guessing that was a cutter (or a bad gun reading). Thor is the one guy of their aces I’d most want to lock up – I think he offers the best potential for durability. [Post-chat edit: sounds like pitch f/x had that velocity and Syndergaard called it a slider. I think it would be the hardest slider in MLB history.]

there's a GIF of it in that fangraphs article. i'm not fantastic at pitch recognition but it looks like a slider to me. insane

pretty sure bartolo got the biggest cheer during opening day intros

@AdamRubinESPN
I think Mets fans really want to boo the Phillies, but have no idea who these people are.

lol nice

Duuuuuuuuuuuuu-da

Con-FORRRRRRRRR-to

wallllker

it doesnt work as well with d'arnaud does it

Jim Henderson has 2 holds, and i don't think i knew he was on the team.

Logan Verrett starts Wednesday for deGrom (lat tightness)

yo

granderson + d'arnaud: 2-for-39

they both got a hit last night if that makes the loss more digestible

Wilmer Flores makes mlb 1B debut

@AdamRubinESPN
Terry Collins said Jacob deGrom will rejoin the Mets in Cleveland for the weekend series. If the lat issue persists and he is unable to throw a bullpen session, then expect a disabled-list stint.

@AnthonyDiComo
Um. The #Mets have removed Logan Verrett after six shutout innings and 85 pitches. In comes Jim Henderson, who threw 34 pitches last night.

Terry in postseason 'pen management mode
