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

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."
― earlnash, Friday, 3 July 2015 17:52 (nine years ago) link
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?
― Bouncy Castlevania (Will M.), Friday, 3 July 2015 18:13 (nine years ago) link
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
― johnny crunch, Friday, 3 July 2015 18:19 (nine years ago) link
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.

oh, Nieuwenhuis is back w/ the big club and just doubled -- doubled! -- in the 9th
― skateboards are the new combover (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 7 July 2015 04:13 (eight years ago) link
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.
― skateboards are the new combover (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 7 July 2015 21:39 (eight years ago) link
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)
― mookieproof, Tuesday, 7 July 2015 22:07 (eight years ago) link
@Mike_VorkunovIt'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.
