MVPete?
Marte's Outs Above Average was -8 last year, which puts him in the 5% for outfielders. I actually think his straight line speed is there, but I have no zero confidence in him tracking balls, running in a gap, or being able to do it consistentlyHe stole 16 bases last year in 17 attempts in a half season. I think he can move just fine to be a backup in CF. I don't think there is a physical reason he can't play CF when he's healthy -- he may be rusty tracking balls since he's only played like 3 games there since 2021.
only 1IP for Brazoban, gonna be tough for us to win this one, especially when we squander scoring opportunities like we did in the top half of the 2ndWill be an interesting one today. Baty getting the start at third, Acuna at second. Brazoban getting a spot start.
David Festa (seton hall alum!) on the mound for Minny
idiot!This game has been awful, I get to work from home a couple days a week, if the Mets have a day game during the week I'll stay home. For this one, I wish I did not.
We have let in multiple runs with poor play in the field, and then the ump blatantly gets a call wrong at first base, but we can't challenge because we used ours already. That makes it 3-0. Situational hitting for us has been terrible. Soto weak DP with bases loaded. Lindor seems lost both hitting and in the field right now. Team just seems to be playing like it is spring training. Need to wake up.
I am surprised by our record, we owe it to our pitching and Alonso. And yes, trust me, I know it is early in the season. I am not concerned overall, I am just frustrated watching this mediocre Twins team outhustle us and play smarter baseball.
Make more predictions. Quickly.idiot!
this comeback will be all for nothing. still losingMake more predictions. Quickly.
Marte moves slower than 114 taking a halftime picDon't think Marte can move like that anymore
That was revolting performance by the Mets. Guy walks Alonso and Winker on the first pitch hits into a tailor made DP. Not to be out done Nimmo swings at the 1st pitch and foul pop out. Hey Brandon you don’t have to swing at every 1st pitch.
I mean are any of our hitters following the game. The guy was struggling with his command and you swing at 2 first pitches.
Plenty of culprits today. Soto 0-5. Nimmo is hitting .205. Butto couldn’t stop it at 1.
