Sweeping the Nats away. Could not have asked for a better start to the season.

My dad always says he's undefeated at tailgating

Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about

Brandon Nimmo sent down for a pitcher. Callaway says the primary reason was to get consistent ABs

We also haven't been able to get much length out of our starters, so the extra bullpen depth is more valuable than a 5th outfielder right now.

Win or lose tonight, this team is not freaking around this year. Anytime they fall behind, they immediately respond.

I swear to God all Robles does is throw straight fastballs over the plate.

Having the extra bullpen arm is invaluable, and Nimmo should be back up with the Mets fairly soon.

If it were up to me, I would've been inclined not to sign Jay Bruce for three years this offseason, to see what we had with a Cespedes/Nimmo/Conforto outfield with Lagares rotating in. That being said, having Nimmo to call on means that we might be able avoid giving meaningful at-bats to some combination of Matt denDecker and Ty Kelly in the outfield this summer.

Partially torn UCL for D’Arnaud, may require Tommy John

I have to say, I'm really happy for Mets fans right now. This is an incredible start. I'm generally indifferent to them and don't follow news about them, but was anything like this expected coming into this season?
Teams that draft well do so no matter where they pick. Teams that draft poorly do so no matter where they pick I want my team to win games and draft well
