DiComo: Reed Garrett, called upon to finish this one off in the ninth, has his own (temporary) closer's entrance now. The lights flashed off and Kid Rock's "Bawitdaba" is blasting at Citi Field.

And to think I liked Reed Garrett.

Scott is a little bit of a surprise. (And so is Baty, for that matter.) Is Butto coming back? The Mets have Thursday and Friday off for the London series as well as the following Monday. Scott could have pitched Tuesday in WSH but I guess they have other ideas. Perhaps he will pitch the first game ...

It would be... something if one of the networks hired him as the "Rules Expert".

MLB could put the 10th inning runner halfway between 3d and home and the Mets wouldn't score.

Bases loaded, 3-1 count, and Taylor watches it. And then the former batting champion fails again. Pathetic.

Perhaps the Mets should have added a MI today instead of another RP.

They could have added a MI to give Lindor a break.

In news that everyone can agree on, Angel Hernandez is retiring on Tuesday:

Let's play two! The Dodgers have "tweaked" their rotation to match Tyler Glasnow against Tylor Megill just be funny and give the announcers something to talk about. Glasnow pitched 8 shutout innings against the Mets on April 21st but the Dodgers have lost 5 straight and the Mets have won o...

It WAS on the schedule. Today's game has been banged.
There will be a single admission doubleheader tomorrow beginning at 4:10 PM.
Enjoy your day.

Wednesday's game is at 4:10 so if they are going to have a split doubleheader it has to be tomorrow (not that I'm advocating for a split-DH, they shouldn't be allowed, but the poor owners need their gate revenue).

Joey Wendle was DFA'd by the Braves which means they had just enough time to get him to tell secrets about the Mets organization.

We celebrated Lag B'Omer... the "B" stands for Bader.

Best wishes to everyone on Memorial Day. A recent column in The Washington Post argues that Memorial Day should be moved to July 3rd: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/05/22/memorial-day-federal-holiday-overhaul/ When you think "Mets and Dodgers" you think "Tylor Megill and...

If you challenge a call and you're wrong, and it's determined that it's a stupid challenge, any player on the opposing team gets to slap the manager who asked for the challenge as punishment for wasting our time.

Nido with a stupid play when there are two outs and you are inept at your job. Everything you need to know about Narvaez is this: he doesn't start over Nido who should be in AA (for another team). "Run prevention" my butt.

This only makes sense if either Pablo (not Jose) Reyes, Jose Iglesias, or Rylan Bannon joins the team. Lindor's eventually going to need a day off.

Can one of us say it? The sun is out!

Gary said it yesterday to open and close the game to tell us to keep our chins up and I told him to STFU.

To be fair to the City Connects, it's not like they are winning a lot in any of the uniforms.

Nope.

Sean Manaea v Logan Webb. https://www.mlb.com/gameday/giants-vs-mets/2024/05/26/745824/preview JD Stewart starts in RF with Manaea, LH, on the mound. That doesn't sound good. Vientos sits again because Baty hit a HR yesterday (Baty is 0 for 5 against Webb). The Mets are a 1.5 run underdog and the O/...

Joey Wendle signs with the Braves making him the 3d Mets backup MI to become a Brave this year (Guillorme, Short, Wendle).

If any Mets are invited I hope that they decline. F the WBC (I'll be fine with it if the Mets aren't involved b/c it doesn't do anything good for the Mets and that's all I care about).

The Mets either need to lose an outfielder/DH or a pitcher. Yes, exactly... but losing a pitcher feels fanciful these days, especially if they are going to a 6-man rotation (otherwise, you could excise Houser unless he's a placeholder for Peterson). Narvaez--yeesh, but if you don't have another cat...

Joey Wendle with a well-deserved start.
