NY Mets --- July 2023

[Nasty_Magician]

So at this point we have to be in full on sell mode. Not sure how much guys like Canha could get us but I'd love to aim for some young arms. Even if they're ok prospects let's see if we can start developing some bullpen arms (have we ever done that?)

We won't but I'd be willing to cut bait with Scherzer, eat some salary and see if there's a team in immediate win now mode that would offer a haul.

Trainer's Room...

Mets RF Starling Marte was placed on the injured list because of migraines. Mets LF Tommy Pham hurt his right groin when running to first as he grounded into a double play that ended the third, then left the game. Pham said he feels some tightness and is optimistic he can avoid an IL stint. “I don’t want to give out false hope and say something and have to retract my words but I would say it’s not as bad as two weeks ago, so there’s reason to be optimistic.” … RHP Sam Coonrod (right lat strain) threw 16 pitches in his second rehab appearance with Class A St. Lucie.


Up Next...

On Friday, the Mets will be at Fenway Park when they begin a three-game series against the Boston Red Sox (51-46).
Kodai Senga (7-5, 3.20 ERA) will get the ball for New York against James Paxton (5-2, 3.51) for the Red Sox.

The next 2 weeks are gonna be real interesting to say the least with the trade deadline just 11 days away.
Not sure where the collective thought process is with the PTB, or in which direction the front office intends to go.
That said...pitching always has to be on the radar regardless...but yeah, we can sure use as much bullpen help as possible...and then some.
