Brett Greenfield

Absolutely disgusting sweeper here to nick the inside corner. This pitch had 23.3 inches of glove-side break -- almost two full feet. (That's, uh... not normal.)

Aaron Nola is done, and he threw one of the best games of the WBC so far, shutting out Mexico through five innings. Italy leads, 5-0, and as long as the game does not go to the 13th inning, Team USA will survive and advance. If Italy wins, it's US-Canada in the quarterfinals.

@FantasyJudgment @ToutWars Rico Brogna now, or 1974?

@BrettGreenfield @ToutWars He is not eligible, and he was already drafted. And if he was available or eligible, I would rather draft Rico Brogna.

The Mets paid a steep cost for essentially a rental in Freddy Peralta, but it's an acquisition that really does change everything for them. You no longer have to squint to see the Mets as a legitimate World Series contender.

@AnthonyDiComo Good morning

Breaking news on the Mets working on a deal to send Brandon Nimmo to Texas for Marcus Semien: mlb.com/news/mets-rang…

Miguel Rojas, the Dodgers' No. 9 hitter, just took Jeff Hoffman deep on a 3-2 pitch with one out in the ninth inning. Game 7 of the World Series is now tied, 4-4.

An hour after one of the best baseball games you'll ever see, Sandy Koufax made his way into the Dodgers' clubhouse to applaud Will Klein for what he did on Monday. It was one small slice of a night that had everything. My column on Game 3, free at ESPN: espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…

@JeffPassan Should have been strike 3 on Springer. Terrible non call. Changed trajectory of the game if not series. If allowed challenges would be out of the inning.

The Blue Jays are getting after Logan Gilbert. He made 25 starts this season and allowed fewer than five hits in 14 of them. Today he's got five outs and has yielded five hits. After Nathan Lukes' second hit of the day, an RBI single to right-center, it's 3-3 and Vlad Jr. is up.

“There’s no such thing as a perfect throw.” Cal Raleigh:

Sometimes, baseball can be cruel. The Mets just loaded the bases for Pete Alonso, who absolutely smoked a 115.9 mph rocket... into Javier Sanoja's glove. It was the hardest-hit ball by any Met this season.

@AnthonyDiComo Jett Williams?

There's a fear Brett Baty could be done for the season, per Carlos Mendoza. The Mets will know more tomorrow.

@AnthonyDiComo Mendoza is in the lower half of MLB managers

Carlos Mendoza says he's not starting Francisco Alvarez, who has homered in consecutive games and owns a 1.844 career OPS at Wrigley Field, because his lower half was cramping toward the end of last night's game.

@AnthonyDiComo Hey Siri, break a leg!

News: To clear roster space for Tyrone Taylor, the Mets designated Jose Siri for assignment.

Jonah Tong, Nolan McLean, and Brandon Sproat pull up to Citi Field together 🤝 📸: @Mets

Jonah Tong has arrived in Queens in advance of his Major League debut tomorrow. He'll wear No. 21 with the Mets.

Jonah Tong will make his big league debut Friday against the Marlins, Carlos Mendoza said. "I think it's all about dominating the minor leagues. It's hard to keep him there." mlb.com/news/jonah-ton…

Two things that are true: 1. The Nationals have the worst bullpen ERA in the Majors, and its not particularly close. 2. The Mets have one hit -- an infield single -- in seven innings against said bullpen the past two days.

@AnthonyDiComo Diaz, Stanek, Brazoban, Raley and Garrett all fully rested after 5 days off and Carillo is the first guy out in a 2-1 game?? Mendoza once again showing how terrible he is.

@TheAmazins @MetCastPod Suarez is a rental. In 2.5 months, after we make a world series push, the log jam of Vientos, Baty, Acuna and Mauricio still exists.

@MetCastPod Good deal, but what do you do with the log jam of Baty, Vientos, Mauricio, and Acuna?

METS TRADE PROPOSAL: This comes from Anthony DiComo #LGM Mets Receive: - Eugenio Suarez (3B) Dimondbacks Receive: - Jesus Biaz (#7) - Jonathan Pintaro (#22)
