New York Mets 2025 Season

Who would get the wild card start if the game was next week, McLean or Peterson?

Love seeing him pitch through adversity. Seems to have what fellow North Carolina native Madison Bumgarner has mentally.

I'd go Mclean and it's not even close for me

This guy Jake Rodgers pitching looks like he should be singing in a barbershop quartet

Holy !$&@?! - are you actually Keith Hernandez? Or did you just call him?

I read the comment and thought it was spot on. And then I hear Mex say it, unbelievable and hilarious!

Nice to wake up to another offensive explosion. McLean the first pitcher in 11 years to start his career 4-0.

I’m back on the Believin’ side for now

I think the McLean “didn’t have his stuff” is a bit of a misnomer. I think the salient point is he didn’t have command of the pitches the game plan intended on him using to start the game.
But he had the “stuff” to change the approach on the fly and get back on track quickly.
Very, very impressive.
Longevity in the bigs is about adjusting and he and Torrens did it beautifully.

I think people conflate “didn’t have his stuff” with “didn’t have his command” often.

But yes, the way he battled until he found his command was impressive. And then once he started rolling he was unhittable. Retired the last 14 batters.

Sometimes he reminds me of a knuckleballer - his stuff has so much movement that I'm not entirely sure he knows where it's going all the time.

Really a joy watching this kid pitch.

His pitches sometimes move like a wiffle ball. And I think you are right that he is not always sure where it is going by that whipping leg action he has after releasing the ball.

It’s as if he is trying to guide it.

Might be time to change our catching positioning. Catchers Interference is happening too frequently with the Mets. Not sure why.

Just cost us a run.

Typical Mendoza. The relievers should start a class-action lawsuit towards this guy.

Consistently pushing the wrong button.

Heckuva catch there by Mets legend Javy Baez

 

[sjc88]

So glad he inserted Marte into the lineup today.

 

[guinness77]

Why is this guy still pitching in situations that mean….anything?

 

[sjc88]

Hefner has just worked his magic with Ryan Helsley. Amazing.

Great call by Mendoza. You just don’t want to win too many in a row.

I want it on the record that I posted that before the HR.

 

[gman]

It’s time to DFA Helsley. What is mendoza thinking putting him in a close game. That loss falls on Mendoza. He outs in Soti instead of letting Holmes work through a jam and now this call.

 

[sirvoo]

Is there a player who has skyrocketed the list of most hated Mets players as quickly as Helsley? Holy crap this guy has cost us at least 3 games already and that’s not counting today bc they were losing. This guy is the worst!
