Diaz appears to be back to his good self and the Mets certainly need that given how many outs the bullpen must get basically every game. I like that he is using his fast ball which can’t be that easy to hit at close to 100 miles an hour and then mixing it in with the slider, and holding off on using a slider when everybody knows it’s not going to be a strike.

It’s a long season so it will be interesting to see how well Alonzo can keep up hitting and if McNeil can keep contributing. I have no issue playing McNeil in centerfield to give Taylor a day off, but with the way Taylor plays in the field, it’s hard to give him a day off.

I think in your article Bryan you almost suggested that Marte get more at bats. If I did not read that incorrectly, I think we need an intervention, especially knowing how you feel about that player.

It would just be dandy to take the series today from the Yankees and will be home in time to watch it, which makes me even happier.

Fair enough about the speed and defense. He can stay for those two things, as long as he doesn't get more than a start or two per month.
