9-5....after Santiago gives up a HR in the 9th on his 3rd pitch out of the pen.

Real pathetic showing all the way around so far.


Some drastic moves need to be made....as an example, for starters...

FIRE CALLAWAY!!

It's not too soon...and it's not too late....
....it's the right thing to do....imho.

At this point I'd be willing to scrap everyone in the bullpen outside of Lugo and Gsellman and bring up whoever from the minors. How could it possibly go worse? Why the hell did we get that loser Familia back? I will never forgive him for his World Series meltdowns.

Cardinals vs. Mets - Game Preview - June 15, 2019 - ESPN

The St. Louis Cardinals have metaphorically punched back at the New York Mets several times already halfway through a four-game series. How many more times can the Mets, already well-acquainted with absorbing a flurry from their opponents, get up off the canvas?

The Cardinals, bursting with momentum after winning two games in four hours on Friday, will look to continue surging against the host Mets on Saturday night. St. Louis' Michael Wacha (4-2, 5.63 ERA) is scheduled to face New York's Noah Syndergaard (4-4, 4.45 ERA) in a battle of right-handers.

Wow...the Mets just dodged a major bullet and another possible embarrassing loss...on a called 3rd out at home by a throw from McNeil to Ramos gunned down the runner to end it..after a bloop double.

Final: Mets 8 - Cards 7.


:suds:

The Wrap:

At potential crossroads, Mets hold on for wild win

Thor injures hamstring...ugghh....

Thor strains hamstring; Mets unsure of severity

Mets acquire pitcher from Cleveland...

Mets acquire Pounders, add righty to bullpen


Trainer’s room:

• Outfielder Brandon Nimmo reported to Citi Field on Saturday, a day after a fresh bout of neck stiffness caused Syracuse to scratch him from its lineup. The team’s training staff planned to examine Nimmo, who may require further tests from team doctors. Nimmo has been on the injured list since May 21 due to a bulging cervical disc in his neck.

• Second baseman Robinson Cano was also at Citi Field to test his strained left quad in front of team trainers. The Mets plan to make a decision regarding Cano on Sunday morning, when he is first eligible to return from the IL.

• Infielder Jed Lowrie, who has not played in a Major League game since signing a two-year, $20 million deal this winter, remains in a state of purgatory at the Mets’ Spring Training complex in Port St. Lucie, Fla. Lowrie is taking ground balls there, according to Van Wagenen, but is not close to returning to the Mets.

“His left side has caused him problems,” Van Wagenen said of Lowrie, who is on the IL with a strained left hamstring. “The knee to the hamstring, we want to make sure that that kinetic chain is working together with his posture and his functionality of working. We don’t want to lose any more time with him, and there’s a lot of energy putting forth to make sure when he starts to accelerate his work again, that he’ll be ready to be the Jed Lowrie that we saw the last two years in Oakland.”

Mets LHP Jason Vargas (3-3, 3.68) starts the series finale on Sunday against Cardinals RHP Dakota Hudson (5-3, 3.47 ERA)

Mets and Cards have been in a 3-3 tie since the 4th inning, so Mickey "pitching guru" Callaway puts in the just called up from Syracuse Chris Flexen in the 8th, who then proceeds to give up a solo HR.

Sheeeesh.

Why didn't he bring in Brooks Pounders instead, whom they've acquired from Cleveland a day or 2 ago...and who's been in uniform and ready since yesterday??


Btw: Fuck Cano too. Dude is trash.


Mets trail 4-3 after 8.


edit...

LOL..Now he brings in Pounders to pitch in the 9th.

Mets got the tying run on, but lost 4-3....losing the 4 game series (1-3)..and now hit the road for a brutal 11 game trip..3 in Atlanta, 4 in Chicago & 4 in Philly...which will probably solidify their burial in the NL east.


So glad they decided to bring Flexen back up, who was praised a day ago by Callaway.

:rolleyes2:

Fun times in Metsville.

:dhd:
