Gordon back below .200 and hovering around a 520 OPS, which might be the lowest of all qualified MLB hitters.

 

They have to pull the plug on him for now and see what a new environment in AAA can do for him.

He's been the lowest for a while now. He's one of only 4 players in baseball with a sub .600 OPS this season. Others being: Pedro Feliz, Jose Lopez and Juan Pierre.

I want an April Thorton right here.

That's hilarious.

 

I LOLed

Are Mets fans even that bad in general?

I haven't made it to Citi Field yet (even though I work for Citi!). I've been to both old and new Yankees Stadium, when the Sox have been in town and for a couple of other games. And actually, I didn't find the Yanks fans to be as bad as previously advertised, but I will tell you that the old Yankees Stadium was a complete dump. Horrible structure from which to watch a game, and I don't care how many World Series Championships occurred there.

 

As for the Metropolitans, well, I've always cut them a little slack, even before I moved here. For reasons I don't know, I seem to understand their so-called plight as the 2nd team in a 2-team city. : )

just going to throw this out there, would anyone trade beckham for alex gordon?

Wow, he's just not locked in right now with his release. Please don't miss low to McCann.

no

Throw in Chris Getz and I'll think about it.

And it's the softest sub mendoza batting average imaginable

7th lowest ISO in the game at 0.053, I'd say that qualifies as "soft"

McCann takes some mighty swings...thought that was gone off the bat.

Glad Im not the only one, i saw that off the bat and was about to say f***.

Rob Deer hit below .200 with huge power and K's one year.

 

Beckham has Alex Rios-itis (2009 version) and Alex has switched hitting ability with Gordon, sort of like Freaky Friday.

 

I don't know if he's going to get things figured out in the heat of a pennant rate....this is becoming like Brian Anderson in 2006, except we have Vizquel that can play 2B with Viciedo plugging in at 3B.

 

Right now, there's no other choice for Guillen until KW can make a move.

Thorton's mechanics look messed up he seems to be overthrowing

The only problem with playing Viciedo at 3rd is you're going to hurt our defense, and that's something that's really carrying us right now.

I HEART Matt Thornton!

Same here.

Not sure how he missed that, but we'll take it!

All he had to do was get it over the plate.

Please, please score more runs so Jenks won't blow this game!!

Funny you say that. I kind of always saw the Mets as NY's version of the White Sox.

not sharp matt, but it'll do, lets get some insurance runs

whats up fellas? man i love watching this team. So glad i decided to jump on cubs sox tickets for friday for 17 a piece two weeks ago!

Thornton was just at 98 and 99 against Escobar?

 

Is that possible? Seems he was really reaching back for a bit extra but losing some control that inning.

Please, please score more runs so Jenks won't blow this game!!

Or maybe he will blow it then I can rip the living s*** out of him!

Has anyone in the organization tried to look at video on Beckham from last year compared to this year? I mean it has to be more than mental approach at this point.
