that d'Arnaud is sposed to be back

nope, back on the DL

playoff odds down from 46% to 19% in last week

that was quick

good seats for the next 3 months

they're only 3.5 behind in the division, 4.5 in the WC! I don't think all is lost for the yung metropolitans just yet

rosenthal thinks matz is coming up

why not? they suck!

1-1 suspended by rain in the 7th resumes tomorrow... which means Matz's debut will occur at TIME UNKNOWN.

dillon gee's first triple-a game: 5 IP, 6 R, 7 H, 6 K

he got the win in las vegas' 20-8 victory

also kirk nieuwenhuis has six homers in his first nine games for them!

matz shd hit 3rd next start

last debuting starter w/ 4 RBI?

none

ANTHONY RECKER is yr pacific coast league player of the week

did he drop his pants?

The 2015 Mets' starting pitchers are one of only two post-1969 staffs with a walk rate below five percent.

it would be remiss of ilb not to wish the mets and their fans a happy bonilla day

direct your comments to Al Harazin then sit n' spin

HEY KEITH HERNANDEZ, BUNTING IS A SHIT PLAY. READ SOME BLOGS.

Daniel Murphy is not a major-league defender.

trade something inconsequential and get horrible matt kemp is my prediction/hope

sny had a "beat the booth" trivia show - part of it was password style, the clue to get was "paul lo duca" and howie was like "06 catcher" …. "loves horses" *time expires*

idk that is hysterical right

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-league-stew/it-s-the-time-of-year-where-the-mets-pay-bobby-bonilla-for-being-retired-180327650.html

"Due to a strange clause in his contract, Bonilla will receive close to $1.2 million from the Mets once a year until 2035."

weird how they always paint it like bonilla pulled some crazy trick on the poor unsuspecting mets... like i thought they couldn't afford to pay him, so they worked out a plan where he would defer the payments and basically get the $ + standard interest later?

wasnt it too that the mets were getting a steady 12% from madoff @ the time so were putting as much toward that as possible? like it wasn't an unwise business decision iirc

could everyone plz stfu on Bonilla for all time.

Collins on trying to stir the offense: "The only thing left is human sacrifice."

Or Michael Conforto.

only until next july 1 obvs

who u gonna trade for a hitter?

harvey
degrom
syndergaard
matz
(wheeler)

Bartolo

oh, Nieuwenhuis is back w/ the big club and just doubled -- doubled! -- in the 9th

J.D. (PA)
Keith, Conforto continues to hit AA pitching. I'm actually in favor of getting him some ABs while Cuddyer rests up, but at the very least he should be in AAA, right? I've never understood the Mets handling of him.

Klaw (1:11 PM)
I don't understand the Mets' handling of their prospects overall. It seems like they're horribly slow to promote hitters - Dom Smith should probably be in AA, Conforto should have started in AA and be in AAA or the majors by now.

dom smith didn't start hitting at all until june and still has only two homers (as a first baseman) in 70 games. and he just turned 20 last month.

conforto should have started full-season ball last summer rather than going to brooklyn, but at least they did jump him to high-a this spring. considering their struggles offensively, and cuddyer's injury, and conforto's performance in double-a, it does seem like they should be giving him a gallo-like shot. (i'm not sure that playing triple-a in a place like vegas would prepare him much for the majors)

@Mike_Vorkunov
It's a weird world when a minor league affiliate can question its major league's team lineup via interwebs

Las Vegas 51s @LasVegas51s
@Mets where's Nieuwenhuis in the lineup today? 51s lit up Peavey in LV last week. Capt Kirk hit two HRs off Jake in his last rehab start.

I'm going Saturday, hope to sell my Lagares bobblehead afterward for a cool C-note.

0-0 in the 5th, you mean again, wau how unlikely

4 of the Mets' 8 "hitters" have sub-.290 OBPs.

murphy's laziness cost them a second run

Murphy is a loser

raw numbers

Seaver's rookie year: 251 IP, 78 BB, 170 K, 19 HR

deGrom's career to date: 254 IP, 64 BB, 256 K, 15 HR

(obv there are differences; Seaver was 22)

Bartolo Colon attributes his skills to throwing rocks at coconuts and his work ethic to his pet donkey, Pancho.
