I’m see that demoting Paddack to relieving when he hasn’t done it before isn’t yielding good results.

Paddock needs to go. So sick of this srub

It really sucks that my excitement for this team was killed by Harris at the deadline. I can't think of any other time that we've had the best record in baseball going into the trade deadline and we did absolutely nothing.

 

[nydo77]

Kerry brain fart there.

 

[tigermud]

They are spending too much time scouting themselves, and shuffling the chaff up and down from Toledo. I almost get the feeling that they aren’t worried much about winning right now, and are treating it like spring training.

Certainly what it feels like. They don’t act serious with this team

They are sorting things out for the 2026 postseason, when all those prospects join the team; except none of them are pitchers.

 

[tigermud]

Got smoked by the A’s getting smoked by the Mets. They got nothing left this team is not impressive

 

[gotime909]

Harris should go pitch an inning

Looking ahead at the expense of the present. Baffling

 

[nydo77]

Well, it’s nice and even, 6 for Long and 6 for Paddack.

 

[biggunsbob]

I guess AJ moving Paddack to the pen was a super good move !

 

[nydo77]

The Mets are having a lot of luck with where things are landing this inning. A lot of this could be avoided if our outfielders listened to each other.

 

[tigermud]

Long and paddock both need to take the rest of the year off then find themselves elsewhere next year.

 

[biggunsbob]

Was Maeda better than Paddack and Morton ?
Or just the same ?

 

[biggunsbob]

I think the tigers ruined Keider Montero’s confidence by using him as a yo yo pitcher. He had more than a few good starts last season.
Idk. He seems better than Gibson-Long, Paddack , or Morton .

Kenta was even worse and reports are he’s going back to Japan next year.

Paddack and Morton both had a couple good starts this season. Did Maeda? I don’t remember any. I know he didn’t make any starts this season.

 

[tigermud]

I can’t watch anymore of this must not see TV

It’s even less fun living in the NYC area, and hearing the game called by the glib Mets announcers.
