It’s Tebow Time!
jdgoat
He’s gonna lead the mets to the promised lands
thegreatcerealfamine
When I mention him the wwjd crowd came unglued.

That’s some medical staff they got there.

Mets training staff is a joke. Same head trainer since 2003 I believe
DodgerDan
It’s time to bring up Dominic Smith and plug him into that outfield, dude is hitting the ball.
staypuft
Or they can put Bruce in the OF and smith at 1B
bastros88
and bring up ahmed rosario and designate Reyes for assignment
Senioreditor
If he’s getting an MRI he’s going on at least the 10 day DL.

Cut Reyes, bring up Rosario. Move Bruce to OF, bring up Smith at 1B.
Perhaps they catch lightning in the bottle like the Yankees did with their young guys last year.
Should Have Acquired Dylan Cease
Injuries not withstanding, i said the Mets will regret giving him a big contract. He is one of the most overrated players in baseball.

Yeah I think so too. I know we’ll get trashed for saying this, but it’s true. The dude puts up a .270 BA and about 30 home runs, that’s good, but is it worth 75 million? His average WAR for a full season is roughly 3.

But for him it’s a little more than just stats. He was why they went from nothing to contenders. He was why butts were in seats. He’s why we thought they were contenders this year.
Should Have Acquired Dylan Cease
No they are contenders because of their pitching, particularly Degrom and Noah,
chesteraarthur
Why don’t you go tell their pitching staff that Cespedes is the reason they became contenders.
Should Have Acquired Dylan Cease
He makes the Mets better for sure, but I believe Met fans and media treat him as somebody who could carry them offensively, and that is where i disagree. His bad defense does not help, and i also believe he tends to get very lackadaisical there too.
thegreatcerealfamine
Not to mention these nagging injuries..sounds like steroid erosion!!
digimike
It’s 45 minutes after my first comment and guess what…
it’s still Tebow time!

No one truly cares.
Should Have Acquired Dylan Cease
I don’t know why but i believe digimike is a type of person who will spend his free time on facebook liking all his friends pictures from 2 years ago.

Cespedes needs a new stretching program. Obviously, the one he’s doing now isn’t working.
bobbyvwannabe
I can’t believe how fast the season is spinning out of control. If I’m Sandy I’m calling up Smith tonight to play 1B in Washington tomorrow. I’d even consider Rosario and DL’ing Cabrera for 10 days.
Lineup for 4/28
Reyes 3B
Rosario SS
Walker 2B
Bruce RF
Smith 1B
Conforto LF
Rivera C
DeGrom SP
Lagares CF

How the supposedly mighty have fallen.
dance1960
Much too early too bring up those kids smith and Rosario
thegreatcerealfamine
Cespedes has a 8am tee time with the Millar!

No way the Mets bring Rosario and Smith up to face the Nats…that’s just stupid.
Before Cespedes goes to the DL, they’ll decide to send Plawecki down and bring up a pitcher to help the pen, esp since Thor won’t go deep Sunday (if he goes at all).
Then, after Washington, Nimmo (5 days in the minors) will get added to the roster, replacing Cespedes, and someone else will come up to replace Thor.
Then they’ll play ok vs ATL, and stumble again va MIA and SF at Citi.
Then, for the MIL road trip, Cespedes, Duda and Flores will come back and Nimmo and Reynolds and TJ Rivera will go back down. Thor will be activated at the end of the trip too.
Then Matz and Lugo get activated in late May, and one of them gets injured in early June.
Then, finally, when they go to LA in June, with a record of 25-34, they FINALLY make the major moves:
Rosario up, Cabrera to 3B, Smith up, Reyes DFAd, and either Duda (another real injury) or Granderson (phony one) to the DL.
Smith – Walker – Rosario – Cabrera with Flores as backup.
Cespedes – Conforto – Bruce with Lagares as backup.
Duda or Granderson pinch hits. One of the AAA kids (Rivera, Reynolds or Checcini) rides the bench.
