The Jeff Franceu- … Francoe- … The Frenchy Memorial Series continues with repeated swimming exercises and the Mets continuing to struggle like heck with the bats.
Jeff McNeil playing center is … bold. Why not play Nimmo in center and McNeil in left? Is Nimmo beyond redemption in centerfield? I mean, going after Jose Siri in the first place was a mighty old cry for help…
Also bold: only scoring on a homer by Alvarez (who looks more and more like a 1950s Western bandit with every season), and then expecting Boom-Boom Diaz to somehow keep the ship afloat. He’s ALL OVER THE PLACE. To the point where batters don’t know whether they should try to hit it or better bail before they get beaned into an ambulance like that pitch that almost took Dylan Crews’ head off. How the Mets keep insisting on using him in the ninth inning is beyond me. But some stupid franchises never learn…
Sometimes a stupid franchise can also have the best record in the league in April.
What else? Ruben Tejada will always be the more famous player (than Chase Ugly) in our hearts.
