Luis Guillorme has indeed been called up; Tomas Nido has been optioned not to Binghamton but to Las Vegas.

Luis comes in riding a nine-game hitting streak with Las Vegas, with at least two hits in each of the last six games, and a triple and a homer in his very last game. He's very hot right now. Here's hoping they get him into the lineup. A .394 OBP!

Will wear No. 15, last worn by Jerry Grote as far as I'm concerned.

You just made George Foster and Carlos Beltran pout.

Well, that re-sets up the the great Tim Tebow conflict that the Mets seemingly escaped when they sold Matt Reynolds' contract to Washington.

Well, as you've demonstrated, you have a notoriously poor memory regarding Mets history.

I was really thinking No. 3 for Guillorme. Nido won't be back for awhile

A leftover from spring training, but a good story about Luis' playroom. I had believed the Mets' site which had reported him as US-born. Luis Guillorme Sr. knocked down a wall to turn two rooms into one large one. With a little imagination, Luis Jr. turned it into his personal defense experimentation zone. He’d get whatever balls he could — baseballs, tennis balls, racquetballs — and entertain himself for hours while unknowingly building his now-incredible hand-eye coordination. “Kids here have a little playroom with toys and stuff,” Guillorme said. “I had an empty room with nothing in it but a ball and a glove.”

Does Mickey have the stones to play him every day at 3b, including some starts at SS and 2b when Frazier gets back, and will he put his solid OB% at the top of the order? This team needs an injection.
