May 23, 2018 Fish 5 - Mets 1

I wonder if (new CIA Director) Gina Haspel would renounce having Mets fans watch 2018 Jose Reyes. Because it is absolute torture, I mean enhanced interrogation, actually no I mean torture. Wheeler fought and deserved better. This was a game until Reyes threw it away, literally. Ramos didn’t help, but imagine if we weren’t losing all night because Jose can’t get the ball all the way to first on a fly. Please make it stop. I’ll tell you anything you want to know. Just MAKE IT STOP. No mas, begging here, no mas Reyes.

Agony Index: 4 outta 5 Lucas Duda Outfield Experiments

May 21 2018 Mets 2 - Fish 0

Vargas gets a win, words I never thought would pass my lips. Can we give a hockey assist to Jeter for assembling this Rookie Ball lineup? There’s young and good--see Philly, Atlanta--and young and ugly. Half those Miami guppies should still be swinging aluminum bats. Still, Vargas’ changeup command was on point and on target. Cabbie and Wilmer Came Clutch again. And Amed’s athleticism dazzled both ways, on the basepaths first to home in 10 seconds, at short with a sweet play in the hole and a laser throw to first for the final out.

Agony Index: Blue squeezes Sewald and Blevins back to back in the 6th to load the bases, gets crossed up (along with Mesoraco) and misses another strike on Ramos’ first pitch. But AJ rallies from a 2-0 count to and drops a nasty hook at 2-2 for the K. Rest of the way was smooth sailing to a 4th straight W. Offense is doing just enough to sneak by some struggling lineups these last two series. Probably not sustainable long haul, but enjoying it while it lasts. I’ll give it 2 outta 5 Monteros for Mickey bringing in a pitcher with control problems with the bases loaded in a 1 run game.
