The broadcast team of Gary Cohen, Keith Hernandez, and Ron Darling will be returning for their 15th season together in the SNY booth with an unorthodox setup. Instead of traveling for away broadcasts, the trio will announce both home and away games from Citi Field.

Post:
In a statement to The Post, Silver Lake shot down reports of its participation, writing “Any claim that Silver Lake is making or joining a bid for the NY Mets is entirely false and inaccurate.”
Meanwhile, a spokesman for the 86-year-old billionaire told The Post that “Mr. Adelson has no interest in purchasing the Mets.”

MLBTR:
In a surprise move, the Mets have decided to promote top infield prospect Andres Gimenez to open the season. It’s not clear just yet how robust a role he’ll occupy.
Also making the MLB roster are lefty Chasen Shreve and righty Hunter Strickland. Both have had their contracts selected to the 40-man roster. It’s the same situation for infielder Eduardo Nunez, as reported previously.
To clear a 40-man roster spot, the Mets designated lefty Stephen Gonsalves for assignment.

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 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."

They say there is a lot of pressure in New York," he said. "It's a big market, there are lot of people on top of you. But I'm blessed to play the game. I'm Francisco Lindor. I'm going to do me, and hopefully people like that. Hopefully people embrace me. I'll embrace them."Mets fans shouldn't have any problem doing that for the player nicknamed Mr. Smile. When asked about the first thing he'll do when he gets to New York, Lindor smiled and said, "I love pizza, so I'll probably eat some pizza."
