https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/04/mets-to-place-jose-siri-on-injured-list-with-tibia-fracture.htmlquote:Mets center fielder Jose Siri was diagnosed with a fractured left tibia, manager Carlos Mendoza told reporters following tonight’s win over Minnesota (relayed by Newsday’s Tim Healey). He’ll go on the 10-day injured list tomorrow and is surely in line for a lengthy absence. that's probably going to end Siri's year, which is only going to further test the Mets' already-limited lineup depth

Black Hole Batty will be gone as soon as McNiels is off rehab. And the way Torrens is playing to need to rush Alvarez back.

News: The second inning last night sucked. I'm hoping we see more of this year Walker than last year Walker. Views: At least I got a new ice cream helmet out of it. ![]()

davecrazy posted:I mean I guess? He’s not exactly a middle of the order guy. It does stink, Siri doesn't have much of a bat but he's an excellent fielder. And now the Mets really only have Tyrone Taylor to play CF. Taylor is an OK backup, but not much of a starter. Nimmo played 20+ games in CF last year, so you play Marte in LF, Nimmo in CF, and Soto in RF, but that's one of the worst OF defenses in baseball.. And they don't really have anyone on the farm who they can bring up. They had Luisangel Acuña play ~250 innings at CF in AAA last year, and other than him, Nimmo, and Taylor there's no CF on the 40-man. It's a tibia fracture, rather than a break, so I don't think this is a year ending injury.

All bullpens are bad, it's not like every single one of them would be a starter if they were good enough. No one grows up dreamng about getting 3 outs in the bottom of the sixth to preserve a 4 run lead.

Does anyone have a former relief pitcher whose velocity is down 3-5 MPH and they maybe only pitched <20 innings last year?

What 6? With current events the only countries I see going are Canada, US, Italy, and Israel (I am pretty sure they have a baseball team with "Israelis") * I am an idiot and forgot Japan and Puerto Rico

https://twitter.com/RalphVacchiano/status/1912131257242116554 So apparently the Braves broadcast crew all teamed up to harass a female fan for her number during an interview, in order to "get us some more Braves fans." Extremely normal and not all insane behavior, thank you Atlanta.

Everyone who doesn't respond to everything with "Lighten up" is long gone.

The Dads closer Estrada is a former Cubs top prospect they unceremoniously dumped off their roster for nothing because he struggled for ~10 innings in 2023 and he immediately went on to figure it out and become one of the most dominant relievers in the game with tippy top shelf stuff. I cannot stress enough how loving worthless our FO is, lmao.

Even better, he's their seventh inning reliever.

Estrada was closing that day because the normal guy, Robert Suarez was resting. The 5 high leverage guys have given up 6 runs in 42 innings of work. Suarez is 7 for 7 in closing situations, 0 runs, 2 hits, 2 BB, 9ks

Keider Montero up from AAA to start tomorrow, according to Hinch it's to 'set the rotation back a day'? I don't understand what this means or how it works, are we just gonna rock six starters for a while or are we sending someone down? Do we just bench them? Will Montero be with us for a while? Anyway it'll be interesting to get a look at where he's at, hopefully in a good spot. I've seen nothing but good news from Toledo about him. mycatscrimes fucked around with this message at 22:36 on Apr 15, 2025 |

Dr. Brule would have had useful insights like "why don't ya trying catching the braseball like a real braseball player ya turkey" that are wildly beyond Rick Sutcliffe's capabilities
