They were saying both Diaz and Ottavino are unavailable today, so if there was ever a time to steal a game from them, this would be it.

or Ronnie to hit their first homers of the season.




It's obviously early, but I don't love this. I know he got hurt and missed a couple of weeks. But I think he's right about the age where he doesn't need to play year round. I think it may be hurting more than helping at this point. I might be wrong--he may hit 5 this week. Or it may not having anything to do with anything. I just think it's hard to work on things--to add to his game--when he's playing 225 games a year and not letting his body get any real rest.

I don't care about the homers, I do care that he is late on fastballs. Even the majority of his hits have been pure strength with him fighting one off to the OF.

I think he only has two barrels for hits this year.

Damn, if only Olson could've come up and done that last inning.

Harris, because of how rare it is to have a gold glove CF who also handles the bat well.

Damn, we were probably due for that after stealing two against Arizona, but that's an ugly loss.

Teheran starting and the Mets were piece-mealing their bullpen with bandaids, still blew a 4-0 and 5-4 lead.

Well, that sucks to get so close. But it's also kinda awesome to get so close. Like you so eloquently put it the other day--this offense fricks.

It does, Ronnie really needs to get going though.

One or two of Olson, Ozuna, Harris and Arcia are inevitably going to cool down.
