It's only his 6th game. New York adjustment. He's fielded well, and while I'd like to see a little more offensively at this point, he doesn't look clueless at the plate like Conforto and Alonso are right now.

I kid, I have him in fantasy so its extra annoying. The most frustrating thing is that they should have had Kelenic coming up and no need to even consider signing Conforto which I don't think they should do anyway since his level of offense is easily replaceable.

100%. 200 million for Conforto would be a huge mistake. He isn't a bad player but he's not a super star.

Jeff McNeil and Michael Conforto remembered Jacob deGrom was pitching this inning

The Mets are an embarrassment to professional sports.

I thought for sure Almora was going to get hosed at home with no outs.

Horrible read by Dom on Rizzo’s single, Davis still can’t field a ball, and McNeil decides not to go after that pop up.

Lindor's got a hoodie on. Is this Little League?

They're collectively playing worse than a Little League team

The rest of the east isn't off to a good start either, so not yet time to panic. Definitely time for Rojas to wake them up.

I think McCann's neck got in the way there. Looking like Takeo Spikes.

Anything that could go wrong has gone wrong tonight. And it's only the 5th inning.

This is one of the worst Mets games I've ever watched. Just sloppy play on both sides of the ball. I know the team is still in first but Rojas should still be on the hot seat with this type of game management.

Also, can we get a new set of umpires. This is the third straight series with these guys and they are doing a horrendous job.

On a happy note, that shot from Alonso was an absolute BLAST.

Alonso all in on HR Derby in Colorado.

Who else? Think we see Trout?
