Altchek's Office Alumni: 2017 New York Mets

@MarcCarig

MRI tomorrow for Cespedes

TC talked to team after game. Reminded that they endured last year.

Brisbee assigns blame

reminds of a bit of the Cubs during the Dusty era, that staff of young guns that included Prior, Wood, Zambrano...

don't make me mention Generation K

(tho this crew at least has one pennant)

omg that comparison is ominous

Yo to DL, Sean Gilmartin up

Conforto moves to LF; TJ Rivera at first tonight

YoOoOOo: can you imagine being a Mets fan?

Jeff Sullivan: Can you imagine being a Mariners fan?

Jeff Sullivan: Can you imagine being a Padres fan?

Jeff Sullivan: Can you imagine being a Marlins fan? Last year the Mets made the playoffs. The year before they made the World Series. It’s not so god-damned sad to cheer for the Mets

Jason: Marlins do have 2 rings

Jeff Sullivan: No they don’t, they’ve all been sold

d'ARNAUDAHERE

Travis D'arnaud homers to give the Mets their first lead...in a week!

ah, coughed it up already

zimmerman's juicing, right

D'arnaud means business! 2 HR game

+ 5 RBIs

been obvious all night Scherzer is off

Edgin (!) saving the day

Noah Syndergaard, who was scratched a few days ago with a dead arm and sore biceps, has left his start today in the second inning after wincing in pain after two pitches to Bryce Harper, grabbing under his arm after the second pitch. He left trailing 5-2 and you have to wonder why the heck he was out there in the first place.

Yeah, kind of saw this coming, especially since a very similar thing just happened to Cespedes.

when did Alderson have a lobotomy, im wonderin'

hey they've won 3 of 4 and it looks like Conforto is in the lineup to stay. #SunnySide

I hope Conforto sticks around, but he also had a great April last year, and then tanked. He has been impressive though.

@AnthonyDiComo
Tonight's Mets-Braves game will feature the two lowest OBPs in MLB among qualified players:

-Curtis Granderson, .177
-Dansby Swanson, .202

@Joelsherman1
Syndergaard flying to L.A. to get 2d opinion on torn lat from Dr. Neal ElAttrache. Initial conservative estimates is he'll be out 3 months

Is Suntrust park the second coming of coors field, or is this team starting to wake up offensively?

losing a 3-1 lead to rain, that sucks

I'd be curious (for climate change/we're all doomed purposes) to see a graph of mlb rainouts by year -- I'm sure some stathead is tracking that somewhere.

tj

excuuuuse me? you just made me check all the damn headlines.

anyway THANKS FISH for the win

oh, Rivera! That's very different.

lol sry

well there ya go

http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/mets/mets-tweet-photo-showing-sex-toy-kevin-plawecki-locker-article-1.3141351

lol did matt harvey pull the dildo prank

That was my guess too, considering the suspension is apparently retroactive to yesterday

also, Asdrubal hurt

@MarcCarig
I went to J school so I could Tweet this: I'm told Matt Harvey's suspension is not related to the sex toy fiasco from the other day. #Mets

why would it be?

i feel bad for everyone forced to be a fan of this team even though there's an actually fun and good team in nyc

well said

yeah well we don't switch as easily as in Chi

so don't feel bad

even though there's an actually fun and good team in nyc

i didn't read this correctly the first time. you're an idiot, but i knew that.

you should be a Stankee fan in fact

i sort of understand since i was a cubs fan back in Sandberg decline years/Maddux to the Braves years, which coincided with the peak era of the Thomas/Ventura/McDowell White Sox.

Mets won a pennant a year and a half ago, have gotten to the postseason in consecutive seasons for the first time in team history, and went 4-2 last week, but somehow they're not FUN.

massive dildos are never not fun.
nev. er.

Gavin Cecchini called up

mets got to post season in 99 and 2000

you're right, first this century

@NYPost_Mets
Two factors in not starting Harvey on Wednesday: Team wants him to throw a side session first. And they want to avoid hostile environment.

the hostile environment being . . . citi field

or by extension, NY tabloids/sportstalk radio
