What Mets fans talk about when not talking about the actual games.

Mickey may not play but who keeps writing FRAZIER on lineup cards?
Ugh, Cardwell is killing us. This whole 5 man rotation thing is insane. Can we PLEASE just start 4 pitchers in a rotation like you’re supposed to????!!!
I told you Wayne starting every day was the call. My man was 3 for 4 and is hitting a cool .304
Gliding Ed Charles did get to play – he pinch hit. How did he do? He made an out lol.
15-18 as you wake up on May 16th? You’d have signed up for it.
SLACKISH REACTION: I got home and put the TV on and saw exactly one pitch and the ballgame was over. (Another lame catch phrase, but that’s for another day.)
I wrote last night about The Long Con and Come and Get Us and basically how this is another disaster.
Gil Must Go, my in-character real time reaction to the 1969 Mets featured Tom Seaver vs. Phil Neikro.
Are vampires operating a baseball team in Queens?
Man I miss the 1994 New York Pigeons
A sports league is holding an event on a Thursday at 1:05pm. That’s insane.
The Mets play the Marlins AGAIN tomorrow. Boy baseball sure is compelling.
As you know the Mets brought in a well dressed new GM, who made some big splashy moves, announced a new culture and the media loved it. He invited the rest of the division to come and get us. Well it’s May 15th and the team is under .500 and there are 750+ games left on Robinson Cano’s contract.
Anyway you all told me I was negative, so I am gonna stay out here alone on Negative Island and you better not try and join me. You stay over there with the Brodie Fanboys and last year’s crew that anointed the manager Mickey Hodges in February.
Tonight, the All In Mets started Wilmer Font tonight. On purpose.
Wilmer Font (not good): 2.1 IP, 5 ER, 6 H, 2 BB, 2 K, 63 P
⬇️
Patrick Corbin (much better): 8 IP, 1 ER, 4 H, 1 BB, 11 K, 108 P
⬇️
Robinson Cano, Pete Alonso, Michael Conforto, Amed Rosario & Wilson Ramos: combined 0-for-18 ABs

5-1 #Mets loss to Nationals— Deesha Thosar (@DeeshaThosar) May 16, 2019
Robinson Cano hasn’t homered since April 21 — going on a month. Before that, April 6. Before that, Opening Day. https://t.co/G28e3Q18Vd

The main piece Seattle received in the Robinson Cano trade.— Buster Olney (@Buster_ESPN) May 7, 2019
Robinson Cano is 0-for-3 with two strikeouts and a soft groundout, and batting .196 in May. Cano has gone 68 consecutive plate appearances without a home run.
Nationals 5, Mets 1, mid-sixth.

Todd Frazier is now batting .148/.164/.259 with a 34.5% K rate in 55 plate appearances. Therefore in an event to get him going, Mickey Callaway will start him tomorrow & have him bat 5th in the getaway lineup.

Easy pickings today for the Mets. The Milwaukee Atlanta Braves rolled out Phil Neikro who was 31-27 coming into the season so it’s not like this was a battle of Hall of Famers with the Mets starting Tom “Terrific”
Somehow Terrific is 5-2. The man gave up TEN hits. TEN!!!
Good to see Gil continues to run Garrett out there. Finally, enough with Gliding Ed Charles.
If I told you you could wake up on May 15th and only be three games under .500 you’d have signed up for it….so let’s just enjoy the small steps in the right direction our young franchise has taken.
