Stupid Cheap Cohens playing McCann at 1B Mets Game Notes for April 24

What kind of hell is this that we finally got rid of Vulgar Pete and Dom still isn’t allowed to play 1B?

The Stupid Cheap Cohens are playing James McCann at 1B?  Get some players in here rich guy.

Dominic Smith is 9-14 (.643) with six RBI and two walks (both intentional) with runners in scoring position since May 5…Only one player in the majors, Akil Baddoo (.727), has a higher OBP than Smith’s .688 mark in RISP situations since May 5…His .643 average with RISP in that span tops in the majors..Smith is batting .275/.359/.319 with eight runs, three doubles, seven RBI and eight walks in 20 games this month…This compares to a .222/.340/.333 slash line with four extra-base hits in 20 games in April.  That said, we still aren’t going to let him near 1B.

Tomorrow, the Mets will see if they can further injure deGrom by having him start after letting him throw 102 to minor leaguers after letting him pitch twice with apparent injuries after letting him throw 100+ in the spring,

DeGrom’s last start came against the Diamondbacks on May 9 at Citi Field…The righty allowed one earned run on one hit in 5.0 innings pitched with three walks and six strikeouts…Prior to the sixth inning, deGrom left the ballgame due to right side tightness which is weird, right?

 

 

 

MHN: Matt Harvey discusses Matt Harvey’s terrible pitching

From Birds Beat, following the game Matt Harvey discussed Matt Harvey’s terrible

“In my mind, a starter goes six, seven innings.  Especially how we’ve been going the last week, two weeks, our bullpen has been used way too early and way too often. As a whole we have to be better at that. I’m the first one to blame on all those issues. I just have to keep going out and getting better and figuring out a way to get six, seven innings and save our bullpen.

I hate losing. I hate contributing to that. I feel like I’ve done that in my last three, four starts. It’s completely unacceptable. I don’t think any of us likes to lose. I personally hate it. It sucks right now. We’ve got to figure out a way to be better. When we score runs, we’re not keeping runs off the board ourselves. We have to better as a whole, and I take responsibility for that.
