Lith Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 can't believe Kershaw navigated his way through that lineup. I am shocked that we actually got 3 hits. After 6 innings, you probably could have gotten even money on the no-no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutgersJetFan Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 My GOD this is a painful team to watch. Heading to Flushing tomorrow with some buds, I'll have a full report on how much I regretted the purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the positive side, at least they will not be facing Greinke tomorrow, so maybe they can score a run or two. And with a little luck, maybe they will bring up Conforto and you can see his debut. If all else fails, I am sure you can enjoy a few of Citi Field's reasonably priced alcoholic beverages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetlife33 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 The Mets have interest in Padres outfielder Will Venable, per Jon Morosi of FOX Sports (Twitter link), who echoes previous reports that Gerardo Parra is under Mets consideration as well.

Jetlife33 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Morosi’s colleague, Ken Rosenthal, tweets that the Mets don’t feel they need to acquire a third baseman while David Wright is on the shelf, because the team is better defensively with Daniel Murphy at third base while Wright is out.

T0mShane Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 You'd like to feel bad for Alderson here. Dude graduated from Dartmouth and Harvard Law, was a Marine in Vietnam, but now has to end his career as the front man for a bozo father and son who hide in the shadows like cockroaches counting their remaining Ponzi scheme earnings. But then you remember that Alderson is the "baseball maverick" that "revived the Mets." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Schroy Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 If Cuddyer goes on DL, don't they HAVE to bring up Conforto? Alderson sux. The kid should be in AAA at least. Dumbasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lith Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Done. Conforto called up.

T0mShane Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Thank god. Very subtle by the mets to say "he's not the savior," then post gifs of him arriving in the Navigator, walking into CitiField, shaking Terry Collins hand, then have a full-bore press conference for him like he just won the republican nomination.

Lith Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Conforto starting in LF and batting 7th. Granderson - RF Tejada - SS Murphy - 3B Flores - 2B Duda - 1B Lagares - CF Conforto - LF Plawecki - C Niese - LH* Going up against Ian Thomas coming out of the pen and up from AAA to make his first MLB start for the Dodgers tonight.

Jetlife33 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 6:08pm: The deal is done, per Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com (via Twitter), with Gant and Whalen the two pieces heading to Atlanta. 5:43pm: The Mets appear to be closing in on a deal with the Braves for two utility pieces, according to a report from Jim Bowden of ESPN.com (Twitter link). Both Juan Uribe and Kelly Johnson appear to be ticketed for Queens if the deal goes through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetlife33 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Uribe, 36, has hit an excellent .285/.353/.464 since coming to Atlanta in a deal with the Dodgers earlier in the year. While his glove hasn’t rated out as highly as it used to, there’s little question that he represents a reliable option at the hot corner. Uribe is owed $6.5MM this season.

Jetlife33 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 The Mets were pushing to deal for Brewers outfielder Gerardo Parra up until last night, Marc Carig of Newsday reports on Twitter, building upon a prior report from Andy Martino of the New York Daily News (via Twitter). When the deal could not be made, per the reports, the club instead went ahead and promoted Michael Conforto to take the roster spot of the DL’edMichael Cuddyer.

Jetlife33 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 One other name worth at least watching as the Mets look to get help to a sagging offense isJosh Reddick of the Athletics. Martino says that the club inquired, but was not given the impression that Oakland was too keen to deal him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetlife33 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Jetlife you seem like a good respectful yankee fan and I know your a great Jet fan so no disrespect, but you need to understand that the mets aren't getting anyone, zero, nobody.its all a scam, they are taking on zero salary.

Jetlife33 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Mets GM Sandy Alderson made clear earlier today that adding Conforto does not necessarily change the team’s shopping plans (via Adam Rubin of ESPNNewYork.com). “This is not indicative of how aggressive or less aggressive we’re going to be,” Alderson said. “This is somewhat independent.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
