While we're here:

"[Senga] Hits mid-90s in bullpen

Senga (shoulder) reached the mid-90s with his fastball during Monday's bullpen against live hitters and used all of his pitches in the session, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Advice: The Mets have been very deliberate so far with Senga's recovery from a shoulder capsule strain, but the organization's patience seems to be paying off. While the right-hander feels he will be back in the big-league rotation right around when he's first eligible to come off the IL on May 27, general manager David Stearns wouldn't sign off on that timeline, indicating Monday that he couldn't say whether Senga would be back in late May or early June. The 31-year-old is set to face live hitters two more times before beginning a rehab assignment around May 11."

Let's go Sean...he has a perfect ERA so far!

[Frayed Knot]

As was the case last night, they got their run for the night in the first inning and seem like they're looking
forward to winning the extra inning coin flip game.

[Cowtipper]

I don't even remember how the Mets acquired Reid-Foley.

[Cowtipper]

I don't even remember how the Mets acquired Reid-Foley.

I remember now:

"January 27, 2021: Traded by the Toronto Blue Jays with Yennsy Díaz and Josh Winckowski to the New York Mets for Steven Matz.

November 18, 2022: Granted Free Agency.

December 5, 2022: Signed as a Free Agent with the New York Mets."

[Cowtipper]

Good work by Sean.

[Edgy MD]

Let's get SR-F a W.

[Frayed Knot]

Good work by Sean.

Aside from the leadoff walk anyway.
We've given up far too many of those lately.

[Edgy MD]

For a team with a lot of Gold Glovers in the lineup, it's the Cubs D keeping the Mets in the game.

[Edgy MD]

Ain't no Cubs defender going to catch a ball in the upper tank, though.

[Cowtipper]

Well, I poo-pooed Stewart yesterday, but he gets my approval today!

[Chad ochoseis]

DJ Stewart spinning the big hits!

[metirish]

Big bomb

[Edgy MD]

Did that go over the heads of the Tuesday Night Mets Club?

[Edgy MD]

Michael Busch staying in the game to play first.

The Cubs have completely forsaken Wisdom.

[Cowtipper]

The Cubs have completely forsaken Wisdom.

Sounds like society as a whole my man

[Edgy MD]

The Cubs have a couple of guys who should be playing for their NL Central rivals — with a pitcher named Brewer (whose curve I like) who somehow eluded Milwaukee, and firstbaseman name Busch who isn't a Cardinal.

No players on the bench named Red or Pirate as far as I can tell.

[ashie62]

Not raining yet, that's good

[Frayed Knot]

Otto goes 1-2-3

[Cowtipper]

This team's relief corps is DEEP.

[Edgy MD]

Otto, indeed, is having a terrific season.

After those leadoff walks the last two innings, I felt pretty safe that Adam wasn't going there.

[Edgy MD]

J-Lo for the save. Hmmmm ... .

[Frayed Knot]

I got a good idea, let's NOT walk the leadoff hitter this inning.

[Frayed Knot]

I got a good idea, let's NOT walk the leadoff hitter this inning.

I got a better idea, let's NOT give up a leadoff double this inning.

[Edgy MD]

Cubs eat Crow!

[Cowtipper]

Good game.
