New York Mets 2025 Season

We punted that game and still had a chance to win late. The only meaningful pitcher used was one inning from Brazoban. That’s almost as good as a win.
 
The calls looked way worse than this on tv

The Catcher was doing a good job “framing”. That’s how you knew they weren’t close. Sure looks like “get away” day calls for that Ump. I also think Mendoza bitching pissed the guy off. Credit Williams for going even lower on strikeout pitch.
 




Also did my weekly check on Elian Pena.


His last 28 days.. .314 avg/.456 OBP/.588 SLG. = 1.044 OPS. His plate discipline seems to be pretty outstanding for his age. 17 walks to 15 strikeouts in 24 games, especially impressive since his first eight games had 7 strikeouts to 2 walks.
 
Good to see Sproat starting to turn it around a little bit at Syracuse. His ERA is still at 5.00 and his WHIP is high at 1.40. His goal should be getting both down in the closing months of the season. Part of the good news is the increase in K’s in those last two starts 6 and 8 respectively. Swing and miss stuff appears to be ticking up a bit.

Peña is just a baby at 17. Amazing to have him compete so effectively with guys who are 2 or 3 years older. 17? He should be a Junior in High School.

Santucci is a lefty. Nice progress for him. Usually take a little longer to command his stuff. Almost time to see a couple of starts at Binghamton.

EDIT: My bad. Santucci was promoted to Binghamton yesterday. He will get those starts after all.

Not ready to buy the Sproat turnaround.

Ryan Clifford has been putting up some big power #s lately...weird player. Very streaky with his power and seems to start very slow each year.
 
Just put on the game. Hearing Gary talking about how the O’s pitcher had an immaculate inning the inning prior.

But then, boom, Mauricio ties the game with a bomb

Let’s win this!
 
Baty and Maurico looking pretty damn convincing to be starters.

Vientos better wake up

Might be time to give Marky Mark the Alvarez treatment. Maybe it will help. Maybe the sophomore jinx is real. He looks NOTHING like the 2024 Vientos.
