I’ve been watching baseball for 35 years and Edwin Diaz just had the worst relief outing I’ve ever seen… 4 pitch walk… followed by 3-2 slider for ball 4 to the 9 hitter!! Followed by grand slam on a meatball hanging slider my grandma could hit!!!!
@StevenACohen2
10 Roster moves the Mets NEED to make
1. 1 yr extension Jose Iglesias
2. 1 yr extension JD Martinez
3. 3 yr extension Bader
4. Alvarez long term deal
5. Vientos long term deal
6. Trade for Luis Robert & Kopech
7. Trade for Mason Miller
8. Trade away Diekman
9. DFA Adam Ottavino
Steve Cohen pays David Stearns $10 million per year to:
1. Put Wendle and Short on the Opening Day roster over Vientos and Iglesias
2. Do absolutely nothing about the worst bullpen in MLB
3. Do absolutely nothing about McNeil being worst player in MLB

JD is huge for the Mets organization… he’s still the all around MVP for this season… Vientos, Alvarez, Bader, Alonso, Nimmo have all talked about working with JD on their hitting… Mets cannot let JD leave the organization he’s a leader and coach
Anyone else feel like the
#Islanders
firing of Barry Trotz was a scapegoat kinda thing?
Honestly... it just felt unfair to me. Personally, I think he should still be the coach.

#HockeyTwitter
Justin Steele was told to go wash his hands after the umpire felt a sticky substance on his hand.
It’s the same umpire that tossed Edwin Diaz immediately with no opportunity to wash his hands.
It just doesn’t make sense.
I’m so tired of these kinds of Mets posts… why are so many people trying to stop humans from being frustrated? 2 AWFUL, BRUTAL losses from the Mets… fans, it’s okay to be mad and talk shit!
#LGM
If you’re jumping shift right now, I don’t want to see you try to come back in two weeks… half the fanbase had this team dead at the end of May and then all of a sudden they jump back on the bandwagon only to jump off after losing a series… I will not throw the raft again
#LGM
We got Paul Blackburn throwing absolute fucking meatballs and Yuascar Brozoban down in AAA already… helluva Trade Deadline Billy Eppler… I mean David Stearns 🤮🤮
@StevenACohen2
Just watched Aaron Boone’s entire press conference, mind-boggling stuff… he ADMITTED he’s discouraged when teams pitch around Aaron Judge like the Mets did… so now you are basically telling 29 other MLB teams it’s smart to pitch around Judge!!
@NYNJHarper
Not to mention, you let him pitch to the 5-6-7 hitters… now you are suddenly afraid to let him pitch to the 8 and 9 batters?? Somebody explain it to me!!
@StevenACohen2
On May 29 - 44 days ago - the Mets were 11 games under .500, 6 games out of a playoff spot, and had the fifth-worst record in MLB
Today, after a 25-12 stretch, they are 2 games over .500 and hold a playoff spot in the National League
Mark Vientos has an .883 OPS.
The only players higher in the National League?
Ohtani: .989
Ozuna: .974
K Marte: .930
Harper: .902
Vientos should be on the MVP ballot.
#LGM
AWFUL managing by Carlos Mendoza once again… stuck with Brazoban too long, then AGAIN pinch runs Jose Iglesias instead of pinch hitting him… Iglesias is a guy we want up there, not Torrens or Taylor in HUGE spots… instead Iglesias is totally wasted running
@StevenACohen2
I cannot stress to you enough how awful that pitching by Huascar Brazoban was… he got 3 strike calls that weren’t strikes… he did not locate one single pitch where he wanted to… his offspeed stuff is HORRIBLE… afraid to throw his fastball… just STUNNED Stearns liked him
It's just wild to see T.J. Oshie at No. 137 overall on Fantasy Pros.
I dunno, he's just such a "big name" to me in the
#NHL

People making such a big deal about Hawk Tuah throwing out the first pitch at Citi Field seriously need to lighten up… this generation has gotten so uptight it’s borderline frightening… Mets fans should be way more pissed about blowing a 5-0 lead to a shit team
Francisco Lindor just keeps doing it. It's another home run -- his 22nd of the season and his fourth in his last four games.
"M-V-P" chants are going at Citi Field.
The fact that Carlos Mendoza went to Reed Garrett in this game is both negligence and incompetence… it doesn’t matter if he luckily escaped, it was the wrong managerial move and Mendoza continues to be clueless with this bullpen
@StevenACohen2
The difference in this Mets team is FUN… so many people fought me about Buck Showalter, but the guy ran a lifeless clubhouse straight out of boot camp… Carlos Mendoza is allowing Jose Iglesias and the boys to enjoy their lives as professional ballplayers and human beings
The Mets were 24-35 at the start of June
They’ve won 16 of their last 20 and middle infielder Jose Iglesias is performing his new single “OMG” to fans before fireworks

@GottaBelievePod
POSTED THIS THE OTHER DAY FROM MY MAIN ACCOUNT… HOW MANY TIMES ARE METS PITCHERS GONNA GET BURNT ON HANGING SLIDERS TO LEFT HANDED HITTERS… IT’S LIKE WE HAVE NO COACHES AND NO STRATEGY IT’S EMBARRASSING AND DISGUSTING

so many times I’m officially giving up… YOU CANNOT THROW GET ME OVER SLIDERS, RIGHTY PITCHER TO LEFTY BATTER… the ball just sits there on a tee for them… Michael King made the same mistake against Lindor yesterday on the grand
Mets prospect Luisangel Acuña went 2-for-4 tonight with his 27th stolen base for Triple-A Syracuse.
He left the game early for a pinch hitter.
Coming into the game, Acuña had a .864 OPS over his last 20 games.

WHAT IN THE FUCK HAS DJ STEWART DONE TO BAT AHEAD OF MARK VIENTOS IN THE ORDER? No, I do not care about staggering righties and lefties, just reward guys for good performance and drop guys who suck
@StevenACohen2
The fact that Reed Garrett is still on the Mets MLB roster is SHOCKING to me.
1. Falls behind in the count
2. Walks too many guys
3. Every inning is a struggle
4. Terrible since June
5. 5.46 lifetime ERA!!!
PLEASE, PLEASE get this guy off the team

#NHLDraft
Mets players who have either called JD Martinez a ‘hitting savant’ or said he specifically worked with them to improve their hitting:
Mark Vientos
Brandon Nimmo
Francisco Lindor
Pete Alonso
Francisco Alvarez
Harrison Bader
Mets CANNOT let this man leave the organization
Luis Severino has been a Godsend for the New York Mets… the most important thing from the jump has been the way he aggressively ATTACKS the strikezone… he does not nibble, he’s been coming after guys are simply trusting his stuff, especially heater up in zone
#LGM
Luis Severino says he knew Carlos Mendoza wasn't going to pull him in the sixth inning based on how he walked toward him:
"If he starts walking with the left foot...😭"
I'm lookin' at my guy Mathew Barzal at No. 106 on Fantasy Pros right now. Seems a bit unfair, no?
He has to be at least Top 100, right?

#Islanders
Feeling like Mets fans need to stop talking about this ‘easy’ schedule and just realize our players need to put up or shut up… either play baseball at your top level or go home
#LGM
Taylor Hall is only ranked No. 70 overall on Fantasy Pros. I feel like he is normally much higher than that. Is there something I am missing, here?
#NHL
#Bruins
#HockeyTwitter
The Mets NEED to extend JD Martinez… there has to be a long-term plan here… Martinez is a guy you want to keep in the organization long-term, as a hitting instructor and coach after his playing days are over… he has improved the entire team and organization
@StevenACohen2
I know it's early, but...
Who is your
#NHL
surprise team for this upcoming season? Who is going to take that next step up?
#HockeyTwitter
#NHLFreeAgency
Adrian Houser is not good… don’t let his ‘bullpen ERA’ fool you… his stuff sucks, he sucks… David Stearns continues to favor his shitty Brewers guys
@StevenACohen2
- I am so disappointed with how embarrassing Stearns and Mendoza are, the management has been dramatically bad
Is Carlos Mendoza working for a different MLB team, quietly sabotaging the Mets? He is making losing moves NO ONE ELSE WOULD EVEN CONSIDER
@StevenACohen2
Mark Vientos is hitting .353/.436/.706 with 12 hits, 3 doubles, 3 home runs 7 RBI and 7 runs scored during his career-best nine-game hitting streak.
#Mets
RHP Dedniel Núñez has been returned from his rehab assignment and reinstated from the Injured List. RHP Huascar Brazobán was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse.
Doesn’t matter if the Mets come back and win this game or not… it’s clear this team is never going anywhere because Carlos Mendoza continues to be CLUELESS in his handling of both starting pitchers and relievers… REED GARRETT HAS ALWAYS BEEN HORRIBLE
@StevenACohen2
Great win for our Mets! But let’s just talk about the Braves bizarre lineup for one sec:
1 Rosario batting 6th hitting .182?
2 Nacho Alvarez starting over Whit Merrifield at 2b?
3 Arcia batting LAST in a lineup full of a lot of dead outs?
Brutal night all around Snitker
As I've said before... I've been out of the hockey game for quite some time, now.
That said... any relation between Tyler Bertuzzi and Todd Bertuzzi?

I’m watching the Mark McGwire & Sammy Sosa 30 for 30 on ESPN, and it’s quite emotional in hindsight… was at a formative time in my life, the whole thing was such a phenomenon… I actually feel for McGwire & Sosa that they had to take the brunt of steroid backlash, was everywhere
Ultimately, I feel like my
#Islanders
lost patience with Ryan Strome too quickly. Our loss has been the crosstown rival
#Rangers
gain, years later.
#NHL
FYI this is the second time Carlos Mendoza has let Torrens and Taylor hit over Alvarez and Iglesias with the game on the line… we lost last time because of that, probably gonna lose again now because of that… the manager has to know who the real hitters are
@StevenACohen2
As I have said from DAY ONE… the key for David Peterson is trusting his stuff and pounding the zone aggressively… too much nibbling going on, earlier in his career… are you a Major League pitcher or not? Now he is showing us, and aggressively so
