Mets:

Memorial day hats.. Thank you to those who serve and have served! May you be remembered not just today but everyday...


Peter Gammons‏ -
Chris Capuano and his 8 straight quality starts remains in contention for best off-season signing


AAA-Buffalo:

                                    P Chris Young has an opt-out in his contract on Friday

 
                        SP Dylan Owen to the bump on Memorial Day. This kid just never got his chance in Queens. The guy’s 43-37, 4.18, 1.35 in 144 minor league games, 106 of which he has started. He’s pitched a no-hitter a few years ago and many of us thought he was way ahead of “the other Dylan” (Dillon Gee) when they both came to the Mets. Owen hasn’t even been able to hold onto a minor league rotational spot these past few years and, I’m telling you, he hasn’t done enough bad to be treated like this.

Today, he didn’t give up his first hit until the 5th inning. ERA down to 2.88. Nice job, Dylan.

            Ex-Met OF Ezequiel Carrera (.247) led off for Columbus. Zeek last played for the Mets in 2008 (St. Lucie - .263). Was part of a 12 player trade with Seattle. Batted .243 in the majors last year for Cleveland.

If I typed here that Manny Acosta pitched lousy again and Elvin Ramirez threw another scoreless inning today, do you think things will happen before this goes to print tomorrow morning?

Update - P Chris Schwinden and SS Omar Quintanilla were called up to the Mets after the Buffalo game

AA-Binghamton:   

P Deck McGuire had a perfect game going for five innings, which was broken up when he hit Reese Havens, who later scored on a Scott Kazmar single.

Havens credited with an RBI when he later walked. He can’t hit worth a shit this year, but he’s been pretty productive this game.

C Kai Gronauer .153… come on…

Another quality (yawn) start for Collin McHugh – 8.0-IP, 5-H, 2-ER, 8-K, 1-BB, 2.17. This is getting embarrassing.

A+ - St. Lucie: -   

No games today… smart.


A – Savannah:

SP Alex Panteliodis got lit up again… 2.1-IP, 3-ER, 7-H, 2-K, 2-BB, 3.15 (can’t wait to read what Toby says…)


A – Brooklyn:

Season starts June 18


Rookie – Kingsport:

Season starts June 19th


DSL Mets:

Season starts June 2nd.
