SLACKISH REACTION: Man video games are accurate! I was playing MLB The Show. “Me” is a pitcher who got drafted by the Mets. I made it to Queens in 2019 because the Mets were short starting pitchers and I was pretty good. Here’s where it gets Metsian…
My first game in 2020 Me tears his MCL and is out for the year! The good news is the Mets won the NL without Me. The bad news is they lost the World Series…to the Yankees.
In 2021 they assigned me to Binghamton! And I felt bad because you know who is still at 1B in 2021….Dom Smith. Lol.
Also I ran into a catcher named Jason Todd, who should totally be Matt Harvey’s catcher. If you don’t get the reference just move on.
Meanwhile, in real life my shoulder is killing me.
The Mets get to beat up on the Marlins (with Wheeler, One True Ace and Thor) this weekend which should hide all sorts of sins.
Lyin’ Todd Frazier knows his playing time is in trouble: Sad. (via Newsday)
“Sure, whatever [Callaway] wants to do,” Frazier said. “Right now, I’m not producing. We all know that. It’s something that is part of the game. I know I’ll be back for sure. It’s his decision at the end, but I got to start putting up some numbers, and that’s the bottom line.”
The Mets are keeping Lowrie in AAA for now which seems weird. I am hoping it’s a delay tactic while they try to get something back for Lyin’ Todd instead of just releasing him. Frazier is only 33? He seems like one of those guys at the end of his career, doesn’t he?
I can tell y’all aren’t too jazzed about the Mets. May stats here at Mets Police are WAY down….like off-season down. Very interesting.
