Houser is a total waste of space. our starting pitching is just not good enough. 70 pitches in 3 innings, and 5 runs.

I watch the Mets and that’s what I see, a .500 team.

I watch the Mets and that’s what I see, a .500 team. Good to get the vientos walkoff today and see a starter go 8. But overall the starting pitching can barely go 5 and the big hitters aren't producing. Lindor struck out 4 times yesterday and then popped out with bases loaded in the 9th. He's still lost mostly at the plate, constantly popping out.

Pretty inspiring W. Also we haven’t seen the Marlins or Nats yet. I know I said .500 but if we can just get to 5 or 6 games over we can be a playoff team.

What an absolutely boring game.
Edit: But severino goes 8, with a no hitter into the 8th. Need to win this one.

From no hit to no win. That’s the Mets for you. Offense is anemic.

That was after Pete’s slow ass turn on the DP. Seen HS 1B turn it faster than that. Let someone else overpay Pete after this season. You know as much as I appreciate his HRs when we are down 6-10 runs.

Wendle never even looked for the play at the plate. Here's the play:

Here's the play: The DP not turned before that. Bullet to first where Pete’s urgency was roughly the same as my urgency to stand in line at the DMV.

Still tied in the 11th, but this team can't hit and are getting harder and harder to watch.
Alonzo is now 0 for his last 17. Lindor is hitting nothing but popups and weak grounders.
Edit: Well I should keep complaining. Lindor walk off double. Needed that.

Pete Alonso is pure garbage. Trade his ass. Useless in any meaningful at bat.

Does anyone understand how the "city connect" uniforms are supposed to connect to the city?
It seems to me just a play to get peeps to buy another jersey.

Lindor is an impeccable defender and he’s far more reliable to come back to the middle. Pete thinks he deserves more than Olsen or Freeman. That’s lunacy. Every year he disappears for long stretches. That’s the entire beginning of this season.

Bases loaded, no outs. They get one run on a walk 🙄.
I really think they need to sit Pete. He's just flailing at pitches out of the zone.

Great game kid, no win though. Welcome to the Mets. This is what I’m saying Don. His head is far up his rear. Lindor ripped it just right at someone. Pete is pulling a full on Conforto. I don’t expect it to get better. And he’s got regret because we all know he turned down a lot of money and bet on himself. And that was dumb.

Bases loaded and Pete was literally the last player I wanted to see at the plate. Told my buddy he’d probably hit into a DP. Sure enough. Hey at least he hit it. If we are being honest we haven’t consistently seen the good Pete Alonso in 2+ years.

As he hits into a DP with bases loaded and one out. He's going to be on the interstate soon. Unfortunately, it's not just him. McNeil is doing basically the same things.

Hey Mets won a game. I was watching the Knicks but I got the alerts. I figured they’d blow it after blowing 3-0.

I usually wait until a quarter of the way through the season to try to judge the team but I think I've seen enough this year. They look like an 85 win team. So, third place hovering around .500 all year maybe a handful of games above or a handful below. I'll keep watching but my expectations are limited.

Besides relief pitching and hitting. What's weird is that our pitching stats are actually some of the best in the league. But we walk way too many, struggle to get starters through 6 innings and can't stop stolen bases.
