If Reed gets traded tomorrow, who's your #1 reliever until Familia gets back? Are you willing to scrap the lefty matchups game and use Blevvy no matter the batter? Do you make much of a good turn or two by Robles? Do you allow Sewald to keep falling upwards?

Ceetar Jul 27 2017 02:37 PM Re: Who's Next?

Sewald seems to have the most favorable numbers, so I'll say him unless it's mostly lefties and then use Blevins.

Robles has pretty good "closer" music. What does Sewald rock? I think that should ultimately make the difference: [youtube:2390edsl]cmFqcHXHN4k[/youtube:2390edsl]

Hansel seems to have gotten his groove thing back. (Maybe that's not a good word for a pitcher. Make that his effectiveness.) Later

I think it'll be the dreaded 'bullpen by committee'.

cooby Jul 29 2017 12:57 AM Re: Who's Next?

i dislike bullpens by committee. We do not have a closer :(

cooby Jul 29 2017 12:59 AM Re: Who's Next?

You know what else? These guys are a different generation from us and (and my case at least) our kids. They have no soul. Bah. Bah

cooby Jul 29 2017 01:10 AM Re: Who's Next?

I suddenly realized how it felt to be my dad, who loved the Mets without having any vested interest in the players themselves. Can I do that? Is it an age thing on my part? Or just a generation gap? Trying hard to like a team I have no connection with, even though my own kids are of the same generation...But in my estimation, much better people...

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Jul 29 2017 06:09 AM Re: Who's Next?

I'm not sure about the condition of his soul relative to Neil Allen's or Doug Sisk's... but Sewald has been nigh-airtight in all manner of situations.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 29 2017 10:46 AM Re: Who's Next?

So next year's pen Familia Ramos Blevins Sewald Robles the unstoppable Erik Goeddell, etc etc

Centerfield Jul 29 2017 11:47 AM Re: Who's Next?

Maybe the kid Drew Smith might be ready. Plus we might re-sign Reed. Lots of money to spend this Winter

New answer: A.J. Ramos!

I would rather the Mets overlook the possible return of Mejia. He's a 3 time loser when it comes to PEDs, so I prefer the Mets not relay on him and I personally prefer he not pitch for the team I root for.

A pioneer in his field! Ramos walks so many guys, you guys. Like, pushing 5-per-9. Career.
