@AnthonyDiComo
Tonight's game has been postponed, the #Mets say. A old-fashioned straight doubleheader tomorrow starting at 4:10 p.m. ET.

what the hell Gyorko, Thor

well, that's a fitting way to end yr save streak, Jeurys

fuck lucroy; they've got rene rivera

jesus this offense

jeurys still out

tbf he wasn't supposed to be available today

did matz pinch run in this game or is espn's box score messed up?

cespedes pinch hit and walked, and matz ran for him

does he do that a lot? i thought it was degrom who was the converted SS

probably would have been degrom, but that's who cespedes was hitting for

tuned the radio out just before the 8th and checking the result, i aughed real hard.

laughed*.

season tipping twd doom

good thing they made those trades!

Cespedes to DL

Duda shut down

"So in addition to making a panicky trade that will leave them calling audibles for 2017, the Mets have now turned a two- or three-week absence for their only real hitter into a six or seven-week absence, one that will almost certainly doom their season. Fine work all around, gentlemen."

A. Rubin:

"Duda had a flare-up of discomfort in his lower back and has been advised by Los Angeles-based specialist Robert Watkins to remain idle for 30 days. Duda originally landed on the DL on May 23 with a stress fracture. Because Duda is making $6.725 million this season and is eligible for arbitration a final time this winter, he is a non-tender candidate. James Loney has proven a capable alternative to Duda. Sandy Alderson mentioned the possibility of asking an outfielder to prepare during the offseason to play first base in 2017. Michael Conforto and Jay Bruce would be the logical candidates."

Jay Bruce has played first a couple times when Votto was hurt and some in spring training.

still doesn't have the power numbers one might want, but 1B dominic smith is a possibility at some point next season

Bartolo Colon was surprised A-Rod (.442 with 8 homers against him) was not in the lineup Thursday. "I always say that's my dad," Colon said through an interpreter,

No Gary Cohen in the booth this weekend--this is perhaps more jarring than any 2016 player injury so far.

bruce needs to work on his sliding
