Syndergaard will be super 2. that 3 weeks he came up early could cost ownership 20mm down the road. <br /><br />They dont seem to think rosario and dom smith are ready yet. Considering we are more then 12 days into the season they would keep the full 6 years regardless. I tend to agree with them at the moment. No one thought reyes was going to be this bad. But i dont think the plan is to bring rosario up, have him play a little and send him back. Also reyes is his idol, so that's sticky. <br /><br />As for Smith, it really is going to depend on how long duda is going to be out or if cespedes is going to be out for an extended period of time. If both those guys are going to be out any more then 2 weeks they will probably bring him up so bruce can go back to playing outfield otherwise probably not.<br /><br />Robbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06166843922861649296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-18347720833825570172017-04-22T10:24:32.133-04:002017-04-22T10:24:32.133-04:00The manager will take care of lowering expectation...The manager will take care of lowering expectations.

I think he needs more ti me in the minors. 60 more games and he might be more ready bat-wise. We don't need another guy hitting .200. Panic is setting in. Will we have meaningful May baseball?

After last night, R...Thanks for the useful info. <br /><br />After last night, Rosario is hitting .362, Reyes is hitting .097. What on earth to do? Heavens to Betsy.<br /><br />Let's say a switch after this weekend? Will it be the last few days of hapless Jose?<br /><br />And with Conforto hitting twice what Grandy is, and the Mets hitting an awful .218, the bean counters have their hands tied. At least for now.Tom Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032383157195393857noreply@blogger.com
