Mets 8, Athletics 0
Record: 10-5
Four series wins in a row -- now we're talking, Mets fans. Why are the Mets doing well in the early going?
- Starting pitching has been mostly solid to outstanding.
We need Clay Holmes to get a little stronger every time out and Griffin Canning to hold the fort down a little longer, but they haven't been dreadful. Senga, McGill, and Petersopn, on the other hand... keep doing what you're doing, gents.
Lowest ERA in the bigs, the Mets have. Getting Manaea and Montas back... someday. Perhaps someday soon. Would love to have some luxuries therein when they return.
- Luis Torrens has more than shouldered to load in Francisco Alvarez's stint on the IL.
Hitting well above (justified) expectations, his work with the staff, and his plays at the plate... why thank you, Luis. Alvarez will be back before long, and if Torrens can keep it up, he makes for a nice backstop... backstop.
- Pete Alonso.
What worries Marls & me?
- Keeping it brief with the team playing well: Team slash of .215/302/.366... not very good.
- Edwin Diaz and his 7.94 ERA.
- -0.5 team dWAR.

Lotta Met fans in Minnesota despite the weather, but the Mets giving them something to watch.
Twins fans… the Twins pitchers’ inability to throw the ball to the first baseman means you should likely head home and dry off and get warm.
Funderburk!
Feels like 80% of the very small crowd are fans of the orange and blue.
Metsies
Soto looked like an uncircumcised penis with his hood on out there last night. Would be worried about his ability to play in October other than the bomb he hit and what he did for the yanks last season.
He does look uncomfortable. Soon enough we will be in the dog days, need to win enough then to actually get to October.
