@SteveGelbs For home games they should pick a lucky fan from the stands. I would rather see a fan give up 50 runs than Peterson give up 7. At least it’s entertaining

@michaelgbaron He’s already tied with Pham for hits as a Met this season, but then again so am I.

Interesting move for the #Mets here. Was DFAd by Miami on 4/23.

The Mets and outfielder Austin Slater are in agreement on a deal, league source tells The Athletic.

@Lillybelli last time I read this story, it was the exact same words, but the dog was a chihuahua.
verdict=attention-seeking bullshit

I went to the shelter that Saturday with a clear plan already in place. I had picked out my dog online — a strong, handsome Pitbull mix with gentle, expressive eyes. I’d even started calling him Bruno before meeting him.
In my mind, it all seemed simple. The kennel door would open, he’d come straight to me with his tail wagging, and we’d head home together. I was already picturing hikes and having a loyal companion by my side.
But when the volunteer opened the gate, nothing went the way I imagined. Bruno didn’t move. No wagging tail, no excitement. He just stood there on the concrete, let out a quiet, uncertain sound, and lowered his head.
Confused, I stepped closer. “Come on, buddy,” I said softly, holding out the leash. He glanced at me for a moment, then looked past me. When I followed his gaze, I saw a tiny mixed-breed puppy tucked into the corner, trying to make himself invisible.
The little pup, maybe eight weeks old, was shaking. His eyes were locked on Bruno — and Bruno was watching him just as intently.
That’s when it clicked. They weren’t just sharing a space. They were each other’s comfort. In a loud, overwhelming shelter full of barking dogs, they had found a sense of peace in one another.
Bruno wasn’t being stubborn. He just didn’t want to leave his friend behind. Without a single sound, he made it clear — he wasn’t going anywhere alone.
At that point, it didn’t feel like a choice anymore. It felt like the only thing to do.
I turned to the staff, took a breath, and asked, “Is it possible to adopt both of them?” The volunteer smiled and said they had been hoping someone would. The two of them slept curled up together every night.
After the paperwork was done and everything was finalized, they walked out of the shelter side by side, staying close, just like they were always meant to.

@InMetsWeTrust "It’s the only change they can make today that would affect anything."
How about getting a new hitting coach?

@SleeperMets They are cooked. I think they should pick a lucky (?) fan to manage the team at each home game. At least that would be a reason for attending.

@EddieTrunk @AmericanAir Please keep us posted; this is riveting! We need to know whether you chose the stroopwafel as your snack!

I knew my run of super smooth flights had to come to an end at some point … and it did today thanks to a 4 hour delay in Phoenix trying to get to Vegas on @AmericanAir . At least it was the second half of a connection … so there’s that I guess.

@AnthonyDiComo Perhaps I'm being too hasty in my judgement but I'm getting the impression that this team sucks.

@Ben_Yoel Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s gone. Maybe time for a new hitting coach too
English

@AnthonyDiComo It must be tough to come up with a new answer every day.

@searlebaseball You are correct about that but I don’t think any single player is capable of lifting this offense.

@AlanJTepper I understand, but he was getting hot right when he got hurt.

@EddieTrunk That’s why we follow you; to hear your complaints about flying. Thanks!
