He’s a detachable Met, and that may be most of what we need to know, as it appears to be a highly desirable quality.

You're right; he's probably quite detachable. He'll probably go to Syracuse when Alvarez returns.

whoa. That's cold from Stearns, releasing a former Brewer like that. Not that Omar didn't have it coming given his D and O this year.

Whoever the fuck is Luis Torrens
He's a stranger to me, but I did some digging, and I was able to find a childhood photo of him.

According to SNY, the Mets have granted Jiman Choi's request to be released from Triple-A Syracuse.

I realize that Torrens is Venezuelan, but it feels odd to see 13 on the back of a non-infielder.

The last Mets catcher to wear it has to be ... part-time backstop Clint Hurdle?

Good play.

I watched the Mets in the Summer of Cerone in 1991, but somehow completely deleted him. I'm aware, of course, that he was there, but not a single concrete memory sticks.

Seems like an overreaction to release Lopez over his temper tantrum. He showed passion, which is a lot more than what Mendoza's shown so far.

Plawecki was gone after four seasons, Recker after three and Nickeas after three...yet Nido stuck around for eight years, despite being no better than any of them (except for maybe Nickeas) offensively.

Crazy.
