Scott Dierking Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 The one piece of information that I'd like to know is "where his fastball is sitting at?" If he's back throwing 95 then his delivery is unimpeded by the injury and he's on schedule to come up in another 10 days or so. All hands on deck. He needs to be stretched out and they are not going 6 man until September. He will be a September call-up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Dierking Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 So, IF the Mets make the playoffs, BIG IF, their match-up most likely would be the Western division. Would you rather face the Giants or Dodgers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
32EBoozer Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Has to be Giants. Cain struggling, only Bumgartner is dominant. LA has 2 aces. Mets have 2 aces. Giants may have a deeper staff with Leake,Lincecom, Hudson/Peavy(can't stay healthy)... but none of them scare me. Kershaw and Grenke are dominant... Dodgers have better positional players.

32EBoozer Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Mets acquire Eric Young Jr. August 22nd, 2015 4:08 pmThe Mets made another deal with the Braves, acquiring INF/OF Eric Young Jr. for cash considerations, the team announced Saturday. Young, 30, will report to Triple-A Las Vegas. He hit .169 with no home runs and five RBIs in 35 games in the majors this year, and .248 with one home run and 27 RBIs in 67 minor-league games. The Mets acquired Kelly Johnson and Juan Uribe from Atlanta last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32EBoozer Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Makes sense as a pinch runner. He obviously can't hit. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Hernandez was destroying Reyes today. Basically said he's been dogging it since he got traded and he's an a$$hole for complaining about being traded to a last place team. Especially interesting coming from Keith considering the same exact thing happened to him. ****in Reyes man, you wanted to take the money. Live with your decision. Nobody forced you to concede a no-trade clause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GimmeShelter Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Took care of business in a joke of a ball park. On to Philly with Wright back in the fold. Feel a bit bad for Reyes in leaving a 1st place WS contender for the Rockies. Keith gave Cespedes multiple passes for not hustling this w/end so his comments on Reyes are weak.

If he was hitting/fielding better Jays would have kept him and saved $45 mil and the prospects. Cespedes not running out grounders pisses me off to no end. Sets a bad example for the young guys like tejada when the 2nd baseman dropped the pop-up in shallow right. He should have been on 2nd when the drop happened... instead he was in no-mans land and thrown out. Oh well.... great sweep in a difficult stadium. On to a very hot Philly team. 21-12 since the break. Next 7 of 10 with Philly. Going 5-2 or better vs. Philly will be huge and bring magic number down to 30 games..

JustInFudge Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Really happy with the way Conforto is playing. He's got such a smooth swing. He could be a player for a long time. It's effortless and mechanically about as perfect as a swing as you can have. Grandman is on fire right now!!! I feel like he scores once a game these days. Cant ask for much more from your lead off guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matz, who is tentatively scheduled to return to the Mets on Sept. 2, threw 41 pitches with Single-A St. Lucie on Thursday, giving up two runs in 2 2/3 innings (Aug. 21, 2015). The 24-year-old is slated to throw 60 pitches in his start Wednesday, after which he could return to the Mets and get be stretched to 80 pitches, assistant GM John Ricco recently said (Aug. 22, 2015).

Jacob deGrom (L) P (12-6 1.98) That's been Collins' style most of this year. He likes putting guys who are back from an injury into the middle of the lineup, my guess is so they'll see pitches. My prediction was he'd have Wright batting third in front of Cespedes, but with the way Flores has been hitting I guess sandwiching him makes sense too.

RutgersJetFan Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Nice to see Tejada getting in there today. I feel like he fell out of favor with Collins during that series in Flushing against the Rockies and then off a cliff because of that double play against Pittsburgh. He had such a good July, it would be huge if they could get him going again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
