1. Juan Soto
2. Francisco Lindor
That’s it.

This duo is about to be a problem😤

Clay Holmes in his Mets career:

15-10 (39 G, 37 GS)
3.21 ERA
1.25 WHIP
154 Ks (6.9 K/9)

The Holmes starter experience has been a big success🔥🔥

@_k_3424 The Mets are 47-74 since June 13th of last year with two different rosters both that are of the highest payroll in the league and Mendoza is the one constant that has remained during both failures. I do see the difference and it’s worse bc the other two should have more leeway

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

Phillies in 2025: Make playoffs
Phillies in 2026: 9-19
Rob Thompson Fired.

Red Sox in 2025: Make playoffs

[Underdog MLB @UnderdogMLB]

Phillies fire Rob Thomson, per @MattGelb.

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

I actually think you have to fire Mendoza in between these two games, no joke.

Something has got to happen.

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

Mets lose 3-1.

They drop to 9-18 on the season.

[MLB Scoring Changes @ScoringChanges]

Always fun when this happens, but Rule 9.17(c) was invoked here in the @Twins at @Mets game, as Brazoban was deemed brief and ineffective.

To be considered “brief & ineffective”, or B&I, a reliever has to pitch fewer than 1.0 innings (so 0.1 or 0.2) and allow two or more earned runs, inherited or otherwise, OR pitch exactly 1.0 innings and allow four or more earned runs inherited or otherwise.

A note on that as the “earned” just means that reliever doesn’t get the benefit of any previous errors.

Tonight, Brazoban entered with two outs in the eighth in relief of Craig Kimbrel with the bases loaded. Facing Ryan Jeffers, he allowed a grand slam to tie the game 7-7.

He then retired Kody Clemens. The Mets scored three in the bottom of the eighth to take a 10-7 lead.

Brazoban starts the ninth and gets an out before getting pulled. Devin Williams entered and goes K, single, indifference, RBI single, double, ground out to end the game.

Now, part of the rule is this: “a pitcher whose outing meets said criteria (B&I) cannot be credited with the win, provided there is at least one more effective reliever that followed.”

While it feels like Devin Williams was brief and ineffective, he technically isn’t because he only allowed the one run to score, while Brazoban allowed four (three inherited).

Because of that, this fulfilled rule 9.17(c), meaning Brazoban gets just a blown save, and Devin Williams gets a win and not a save. Fantasy owners should have a field day lol, and amusingly even when the Mets win, it’s gotta be weird.

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

Devin Williams earns his 1st win as a Mets.

The Devin Williams experience was on full effect today.

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

The Mets win!!!

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

Will it ever end?????

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

@dylans21502 @Jolly_Olive He’ll never be in the lineup over Vientos/Baty/Melendez at 1st base

[Will Sammon @WillSammon]

Christian Scott will start on Thursday, Carlos Mendoza said.

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

@searlebaseball Soto should leadoff tm

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

Benge was definitely not the answer leading off.

I’m not sure Semien is any better.

[New York Mets @Mets]

Back home. #LGM

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

@CraigHelfgott Agreed. Im not sure Semien leading off is the answer…

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

@ExitTheLeft Tougher to drive people in from the bottom of the order. Also no one is driving people in right now and Alvy is the only that has hit at all this season. You had to change something up with the lineup but putting Benge leadoff was not it.

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

Francisco Alvarez leads the Mets in AVG, OBP, SLG, OPS, and HR this season.

Alvarez has hit top 4 in the lineup in 0 games this season.

[Mets Scope @MetsScope]

@CRS195610 Jared Young & Brett Baty have hit 3rd multiples times this year, give me a break!
