I think I heard Keith and Ron say they thought it would be Lugo, but just as baseless speculation.
Reasonable. I'm sadly not that strong.
I was working at MLBAM that night. That was also very, very, very bad.
ABORT! ABORT! ABORT!

Jacob deGrom's MRI on his hyperextended right elbow revealed no ligament damage, the Mets announced on Thursday morning. The ace right-hander has been cleared to prepare for his next start, but he will be monitored for soreness and other potential setbacks.
Is it just me or does this remind anybody of Syndergaard's refused MRI last year?
EDIT: Frosty brew to Howie.
I think that if they had won 2015 series while I would have enjoyed it hugely, obviously, it wouldn't have been quite as intensely satisfying because I am now a bit more emotionally distant from the team.
I've had that -- off & on -- since 1992.
You can't give him one ####### start off, really?
Well, I trust Mickey/Eiland on this a helluva lot more than I ever trusted Collins/Warthen, so there's that.
You can't give him one ####### start off, really?
Skipping a start would seem prudent. Give Harvey a go.
Just when I thought I was out, they keep pulling me back in!
1988 for me. Beat the Dodgers like a drum all year, then lose in 7 after taking a 2-1 lead in games and having game 5 all but won. Didn't sleep at all that night. Stupid way for a so-called adult to live.
Nowadays wouldn't make much difference, I never sleep well regardless. Maybe it's time to start caring again.
He tore a ligament stubbing his toe??? METS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hopefully they can hang on until some of their major leaguers come back.
See yooooouuuuu...in Septeeeeembeeeer....
That's 5 games this past week that could've (should've) been wins that weren't. They could (should) be 10 games over .500
At least the offense is working a little--don't know if anyone expected Nimmo to be slugging over .500. The consensus earlier in the season seemed to be A-Gon to the bench and Bruce to 1B, but A-Gon is outhitting Bruce by a decent margin right now (and Dom Smith is just sucking a tailpipe in Vegas). Amed's hitting .313/.353/.594 in his last 10.
if one of the veteran beat guys had interrupted him and said, "You must be new here," he'd never have had to pay for a beer in Queens ever again.

This season the #Mets will pay Bobby Bonilla $1,193,248
This season the #Yankees will pay Aaron Judge & Luis Severino a combined total of $1,227,275
It doesn't matter. Headcase never would have done that as a Met.
but..... carry on
Happy sails, Mr. Wright. It's been a pleasure.
Amazin'!
I hope that game is a sellout.
All indications are that it is already. Wayne Randazzo on the radio broadcast of game 1 yesterday was saying SRO was going for a pretty penny.
I already had tickets as part of my season plan, so YAY ME!
I wish him well, but wonder what is his long term prognosis for being able to live a pain free non athletic life.
Glad to see that I posted on the first page of the thread...and then didn't post on it again for 11 years :)
Anyway, I'm pretty sure the game is sold out now. I bought tickets to the Sunday game a few days ago, thinking that if Wright came back it would be for the last game of the season, not the penultimate game. At that time, tickets in the section I bought were going for about $50 each on Stubhub. After the announcement they were going for closer to $500 apiece.
Anybody besides Charley going to the game?

There have been discussions, a source confirms, on a potential 3-way trade between the Mets, Yankees and Marlins that would bring J.T. Realmuto to Flushing and could send Noah Syndergaard to the Bronx.
deGrom?
(Not that that means they should consider trading Syndegaard, of course.)
