Slackish Reaction: Man, I leave you guys alone for 90 minutes to attend soccer and you guys break the Thor. Imagine if Matt Harvey had refused an MRI and then got hurt. People would lose their minds! Plawecki pitched, the Mets lost by more than 4 grand slams, and Terry is cranky. And you need to pay attention to the Gooden thing even though you won’t. Keep reading.
And pay attention to The Media. I am noticing all kinds of little shots at Syndergaard. His THOR act was cute until he blew off the media, now they are taking pot-shots at him….as I told you they would. And I warned Mr. Thor all winter, you can’t half-play the media game. Ask Matt about it.
NOT. GOOD. Syndergaard, who did not go for an MRI this week, reaches for the arm and leaves the game. When it rains it pours. #Mets pic.twitter.com/wDTEOV8Hgp

Uh oh, the Sporting News says the Mets blew their chance to Take Back New York. They may be correct.
Lucas Duda may be dead. Too bad the Mets didn’t play 40 practice games this spring where they could have tried Bruce at first.

Mets Fans won’t be able to focus on this today, but here’s the secret behind that weird Gooden City Hall thing from Friday! (New York Times)
So how did Ms. Heart get the city not only to pay for the backdrop of a scene in a television pilot but also have the mayor take part? By enlisting the influential lobbying firm of James F. Capalino, a friend and longtime donor to Mr. de Blasio whose business skyrocketed with the mayor’s election.
