New York Mets 2025 Season

Uh oh, you mean we are not going 162-0 Rats.

Seriously they had their chances just didn’t get the big hit today. The Mets have to overcome the walks problem. The Astros rally was aided and abetted by walks and a HBP. Holmes is new but the problem plagued us last season. No time to dwell on the loss. Long season. Bounce back tomorrow night, fingers crossed.

Well if you have a $700 million dollar player I guess you can’t count on them to get a big hit all the time?

Even $700m players are only successful 3 out 10 times. That’s baseball. We’ll get e’m tomorrow…I hope. 🙂

Mets pitchers walking batters looks like it will continue

SJUNC, watched the postgame and Holmes said exactly this. The walks and the HBP were the killer.

All this patting themselves on the back with the pitching “lab” is going to be put to the test with some of these guys. We can’t be at the bottom of the league for walks allowed again. It’s ridiculous and some of our talking heads rarely mention the problem.

I’m m watching a baseball game right now with a guy who got $765M contract as the best free agent last year.

So…. BE POY, 2nd Team AA is no doubt the best free agent on the market.

$3M seems like a bargain to me.

Juan Soto got way too much money. When he starts breaking down in his 30’s. The Mets will regret paying him that much. I am a Yankees fan and was glad Cashman did not sign him.
 
To those condemning the Soto signing--OOPS. A little too soon. Homer tonight.

Complaints about walks in game one were heard by pitching staff; only 4 tonight, along with 10K's. Megill may have had his best Met outing. Will Megill be able to repeat, don't have a clue but it was nice.

Some of Holmes’ stuff looked filthy.

One of his problems is he seemed to only go back to the 2 pitches he trusts which is fine as a reliever. He will need to use 3 or 4 pitches as a starter. The bigger issue was our bats. They didn’t wake up game 2, but did just enough to win.

That won’t be our problem. He will only. early 30s when he opts out for another deal with the dodgers.
 
Haven't the Mets only played 2 games. Much too early to herald or trash the team at this point. Enjoy the season, as a remedy to our losing to Arkansas.
