There needs to be a complete overhaul and reload from top to bottom throughout this organization.....and by top, I'm talking about the Wilpon's first. I wish they'd just sell the team once & for all...and get the hell out of baseball.

Yeah

0-0 game heading to the 9th.
Mets have only 2 hits. Phils have 5.
deGrom went 8 solid innings.
(Was removed for a PH in the bottom 8th with a runner on)

Mets BULL pen will probably give it up here now.




Edit: Hot Damn!
Familia tosses a clean 1-2-3 9th on just 8 pitches.

Onto the bottom of the 9th.....
Get em on -- get em over -- get em in.

LGM!!!

Nimmo to the rescue.

Pinch hit 3 run walk off HR sends the Mets to a 3-0 win in 10.

Brandon Nimmo hits pinch-hit walk-off homer

:suds:

At least the Mets found Nimmo this year and it looks like Matz and Wheeler might actually stay healthy. They have a shot at going into next year with a decent staff. The big question will be if their big money outfielders can stay healthy. They have 5 outfields under contract and Legares gets 8.5 mil next year. Hopefully whoever takes over as GM can build a pen. Omar is already signing international guys but that's going to take a while.

Everybody should go except Conforto. Nimmo is okay but not un-tradeable. The rest of these guys are too old, too overpaid, and too brittle.

No one is taking Bruce or Cespedis and the remaining 2 years on each ones contract. Maybe next year someone would take Frazier at the trade deadline for depth but you won't get anything back. No one is touching Legares at 8.5 mil unless you package him a trade with a pitcher.

Intrusting

Interesting but the one good prospect they have in AAA is a first baseman. They also may need first for Bruce and his foot issues.

Yeah, I don't really care for Cespedes at 1st. We've got other options. But I wonder where this generated from? This might have been a reporter asking him a "what if?" and he said "yeah, I'll play wherever."

I don't care for Dominic Smith as a long-term solution at 1st base.

Not sure, but they do have a bunch of outfielders and moving one of them gets their bats in the line up more and might help him stay healthy so it may have come from the Mets

Nimmo doesn't suck. Can't argue the rest but Bruce was good last year and may be injured. He may bounce back. Either way they are going to have all 5 outfielders on the books next year unless they manage to unload one which seems unlikely.

I'll call Cashman, he's always looking for another DH
