So, after all that excitement about Ryan Waldschmidt getting called up… He’s not in the starting line-up. This does kinda make sense based on past history. It feels like Torey Lovullo likes to give prospects a parachute, letting them absorb the atmosphere gently rather than hurling them into the fire on their first night. I would not be surprised to see Waldschmidt come off the bench for a pinch-hit opportunity late in the game, and quite possibly be starting in center. We’ve been patient and waited for him to show up in the majors. Another 24 hours or whatever isn’t going to make any difference.
It’s the Mets again. The last time we saw them was just about a dozen games into the season, and we did not realize quite how terrible they seem to be. Taking two of three in New York seemed like a huge success at the time, but we did not realize how terrible they are. Now, it seems like a bit of a missed opportunity: they got swept by Colorado, and the Mets have gone 7-17 since we left town. We kick-started a twelve-game losing streak, though on this road trip, they have won series against the Angels and Rockies, so might be turning things round a bit. Both teams could certainly use a series win.
