I wish they would stick him in the 9 hole and tell him to try to be that high OBP, lower power type hitter again. The OBP tradeoff he’s made for what is honestly just a little extra power is not worthwhile.

Just posted my immediate thoughts regarding the Hegseth/Trump speeches: TL,DR -- this was a big mistake by both.

Why would he start Manaea instead of using Brazoban as an opener if he was just going to pull him the second a threat formed?

None of this was a good idea. It feels like Mendoza has been pushing buttons at random for a month.

Mendoza has been atrocious all month.

Only thing wrong with this prediction was the month.

6-0 Mets. McLane pitching. I am confident. It's the next 3 that terrify me.

Pitch him 7 innings max. The bullpen has to be able to pitch 2 clean innings or this time deserves its fate.

Lindor is truly a big time player.

Yes, it’s possible. Even likely if they lose tonight.

I have no idea what they plan to do in a must win situation on Sunday because every option is terrible but I am certain that pitching McLean for even a single batter that day is out of the question.

There’s no universe in which they would send him out for the 8th inning anyway.

This is certainly not a controversial take but the Mets are toast if they don't win the McLean start tonight.

Must have been one of those “violent trans” again. 🙄

Alvy!!!!!!

Mendoza keeps fucking up. His decision making has been inexplicably bad recently.

Should have traded Vientos for Robert!

You know they’re going to have to get an inning from Helsley to get through this game.

Nimmo!!!!!

Nimmo!!!!!

Do you know who leads all Mets pitchers in bWAR? It's Edwin Diaz and his 60 1/3 IP at 2.6 bWAR. That's really the end of the story. How can we sit around and blame Pete, who has clearly outplayed the contract they gave him last year, when the entire pitching staff has failed before our very eyes?

“They claim their labours are to build a heaven, yet their heaven is populated with horrors. Perhaps the world is not made. Perhaps nothing is made. A clock without a craftsman. It's too late. Always has been, always will be…too late.”

They should move the mound back 6 inches and see if that cuts down the insane strikeout rates of today's game.

He's gotta get work in more consistently. I don't think Mendy's use of him today had anything to do with the game situation; it was 100% because Diaz doesn't want to have these extended periods of inactivity that have occurred too often this season.
