Mets 2024 Season

- Start date
Willis Reed wasn't available.
Mets rolling the dice. I like it. We have nothing to lose. Maybe Peterson but Megill? If Senga isnāt sharp then you use Megill in backup. I believe heās on the roster for NLDS?
Peterson threw just 8 pitches last night. Iād imagine that + the warmup was comparable to his normal side. He should be pretty close to 100%.
I like the idea of a righty for 2 innings, then a lefty for 5-6 with our righty-dominant bullpen.
I realize I look at things much differently than a lot of people but I canāt believe one inning two days prior would cause anyone to not be 100%.
Just saw Peterson press conference. Heās said he is ready to go. Maybe they do Senga for a couple and then Peterson. (Like you said) Hope they can build up Senga for later in Series or dare I say NLCS. Probably also presses the Fillies on how they configure their lineup with whole lefty/righty thing.
The Mets roller coaster is in full swing. All aboard.
I've always been a fan of the bullpen start when the pitcher piggybacking throws from the other side. Ideally, 2 from Senga and then 6 from Peterson so we can hand it to Diaz and bypass the rest of the bullpen. Maybe 3 from Senga if there is a game 5? Only 25 pitches in his last bullpen session for Senga is not encouraging at all. I don't know how he can go from pitching 5 1/3 just 70 days ago to 25 pitches. He had a shin strain...couldn't he throw from his knees to keep his arm strength up?
The circle of trust in the bullpen is incredibly small. Right now, I trust Stanek, Butto off of 2-3 days rest, and Diaz. That's it.
Did not think this is real. Crazy.

Couldnāt throw from his knees he was too busy playing power forward.
The way Mendoza has been calling them lately, I'll go with him and his choice of Senga. Senga's 5+ innings were incredible with 9 strike outs. So maybe, Medoza is thinking a bullpen game; allowing a rotation in last 4 games of Peterson, Manaea. Severino and Quintaro.
86-69 this year. You gotta believeDid not think this is real. Crazy.

Anyone goin this round ? Let me know maybe I'll buy with you Nat is working nights this week
Amazing. The only problem with this is in a āshortā series the Fillies have better starting pitching. Namely Wheeler. They can start him twice. During a āseasonā depth wins out. On top of that the Mets and MLB put themselves in a tough scheduling position. Of course we donāt know if itās better to keep playing or rest. Weāve seen teams flame out after sitting around watching the WC.
Doesnāt mean Mets canāt win. Playoffs are different.
Also it eff's with their head. If Senga pitches a solid 2 or 3 innings and the Mets win over Wheeler, they come back with him in game 5 with one more bullet in their holster and one that may have the Phillies thinking this ain't their year. If it doesn't work today quick hook and the potential reward was greater than potential risk. Brash smart underdog move.

Definitely, but I do think it should show that this is more of a 50-50 series than the pundits believe. Playoffs are all about momentum
