David Wright had his best day of rehab and it sounds like he could play in a minor league game later this week. He might still be 10 days away from the majors, though.
Great job by the Mets, who honored fallen NYPD officer Brian Moore prior to and during last night's victory.
Mets manager Terry Collins is back on the hot seat and he's actually happy about it.
Pedro Martinez thinks Matt Harvey could be better than he was. That's some high praise! Jeff Wilpon says that Pedro's claim that he was forced to pitch injured with the Mets is false. I think I'm believing Pedro on both claims.
The Mets have had lots of ups and downs so far –– from Las Vegas, that is. Eric Campbell is back on that shuttle, headed out for catcher Johnny Monell.
Noah Syndergaard has been dominant in his last two outings, while Brandon Nimmo is one of a few outfield prospects who is really hitting a lot early on this season.
New York Bees? New York Avengers? New York Burros? Those were just some of the names in play for the New York National League franchise.
Around the NL East
Shelby Miller's complete game shutout helped the Braves dominate the Phillies 9-0.
The Marlins defeated the Nationals 2-1, as Stephen Strasburg left after 3 innings with a shoulder injury.
Anthony Rendon's season debut is being held back by an oblique strain now.
Could the Astros be a match for lefty Cole Hamels? A front three featuring Hamels, Collin McHugh, and Dallas Keuchel could surprisingly be quite good.
Around the Majors
MLB's waiver process is quite flawed, especially for the players on the fringes of 40-man rosters who bounce around a lot.
Collin McHugh is using his slider to great success.
Which surprising division leaders will make the postseason? Let's say the Mets are listed there.
Rays pitcher Alex Cobb has a partially torn elbow ligament.
What are the milestones and records that we want to see fall?
