Truly it's painful seeing a bunch of players in tonight's ASG that were linked to #Mets in possible off-season trades or free agent signings: Joe Ryan, Dylan Cease, Yandy Díaz, Mason Miller, Byron Buxton, and Cody Bellinger, and none of these potential acquisitions came to fruition.

Not a bad #Mets ASG debut for Juan Soto -- he leaves after recording the only NL hit to this point.

Our All-Star leads off with a single -- and the customized #Mets Spiderman thing when he gets aboard.

Well, this is ONE way to make an All-Star entrance. Congratulations to #Mets LF Juan Soto. And as for the boos from Philly fans? A true sign of respect for his prowess.

So...Cody Bellinger and Dylan Cease are both AL starters tomorrow. Imagine if Boy Blunder put his time, effort, and Steve Cohen's money into those free agents instead of who he signed.

😳😢 #RIPSamNeill Great actor and brought so many interesting characters to life in TV and film roles, from the Russian ambassador in "Amerika," and the reluctant adoptive father in "The Wilderpeople," to the crochety scientist in the "Jurassic Park" franchise.

OK...How many of you are sick of #Mets front office, manager, and players saying, "there's too much talent in here for us to be playing this way." PUH-LEASE!🙄 The #Mets aren't MLB's third-worst team by accident. They have more NAMES than talent. Stop being delusional and arrogant and gaslighting us!

Checking again on the box score...so OF COURSE Devin Williams blows it for the kid.🤦🏿😡 MAKE LUKE WEAVER THE CLOSER! Only #Mets would be dumb enough NOT to trust their BEST reliever to pitch in the most high-leverage spots. TRADE WILLIAMS!!!

Not watching live today, but checking Zack Thornton's pitching line. Boy Blunder better not even THINK about optioning him to AAA. Let the kid stay in the rotation the rest of the year, learn some lessons, and slot him in the rotation in '27. Zack's doing what Manaea, Senga, Peralta have failed at.

Here's an indictment of #Mets pitching coach, scouts, and video and analytics teams. If noted sportswriter and pundit Tom Verducci can figure all this out, re. Four-Inning Freddy, why can't people on #Mets payroll? Or do Mets people know this and STILL can't correct it? www.si.com/mlb/mets/fre...

🤔 WTF?

#FremantleDockers fans, get around our boys!!! What a comeback! What a win!!! #flagmantle #wharfietime

RIP former #Mets pitching coach Phil Regan, who the team's buffoon GM, Brodie van Wagenen, reportedly threw a chair dangerously close to, during a performative, post-game hissyfit, in a meeting with ineffectual then-manager Mickey "I'm gonna love you like you've never been loved" Callaway and staff.

Reminder, #Mets fans: Somewhere, Frankie Montas is laughing at Boy Blunder as he gets a notification on his phone from his bank, that the latest installment of his $17M salary has just been direct deposited into his account.

Many #Mets related posts alternately trying to explain/justify Boy Blunder's pitching revolving door as getting "innings eaters." Know what best "eats innings"? Same as what he calls "run prevention": QUALITY.👏🏿STARTING.👏🏿 PITCHING.👏🏿 So why does he not hunt, retain, or seemingly undervalue it?🤔

Who says David Stearns's tenure as #Mets POBO hasn't been historic? Research shows the '25 #Mets, "set a record for the most pitchers used in a single season (46), driving up DFA frequency." With a week before the ASG, #Mets have used 28. Maybe we'll break our own record!🥳 Way to hunt good pitchers!

After last night, I'd love to personally ask Boy Blunder aka #Mets POBO David Stearns how that "run prevention" thing he yammered on about last winter, is going?🤔

Wow. Gotta give it to Boy Blunder. What a supreme judge of baseball talent. This Seelinger guy may be the #Mets answer to Mariano Rivera.🤦🏿 #DFADavidStearns

I'm SO sick of Boy Blunder doing this: signing discarded relievers, the discard performs pretty well on debut -- then gets exiled? There MUST be a better way to manage relievers. Or MLB must change the rules. Zuñiga's arm is so fragile that after 1 IP he can't pitch the next day? #DFADavidStearns

OK, so I switched over to the #Mets game for the last two innings after the USMNT loss. Loved Juan Soto's heroic 3-run HR, Luis Torrens's clutch two-run 2B, but I'm left wondering: Why isn't Luke Weaver the closer? Devin Williams is the one who should be traded.

🤡 karma resulted in a Knicks loss at the Garden v the Spurs...🤡 karma sunk USMNT in Seattle v Belgium. Just sayin'.

Why watching La Copa Mundial es más mejor en Telemundo que Fox Sports! Viva México!🇲🇽

So while Aotearoa (New Zealand) has the Māori Haka in international rugby, Norway has the "Viking Row" in World Cup football. Fittingly, it's Erling Haaland banging the drum and leading it, after Norway's historic 2-1 massive upset of Brasil to propel it into the quarterfinals.

Netflix MUST have known something to have agreed to pick up the documentary, "Dark Horse," about the Norwegian national soccer team's run to this year's World Cup. It's a damn good series. First, Norway dispatched my adopted Elephants of Côte d'Ivoirie, then KO Brasil. Well played, Norwegians.🇳🇴

😳😲Norway are about to SHOCK Brasil!!! Erling Haaland has just buried his second goal within minutes, to give his team a surely insurmountable 2-0 lead with just seven minutes of extra time left in the match.

Norway's Erling Haaland is as ridiculous as Argentina's Lionel Messi -- it's not IF he's gonna score, it's WHEN. His header gives Norway a 1-0 lead in the 79th minute over perennial World Cup threat, Brasil.

Nothing like a day after a typically humiliating #Mets attempt at playing baseball for Boy Blunder to present us with his latest Dumpster dive find. Friends, meet Guillo Zuniga (yeah, I'd never heard of him either), fresh from the bottom of the barrel.🙄 www.mlbtraderumors.com/2026/07/mets...

Imagine a loved one goes out of his, her, or their way to make and serve your favorite meal. Out of nowhere David Stearns rings the doorbell, then walks in with his smug mug, and then shits all over your plate and the entire table before your first bite. That's what Boy Blunder did to our #Mets.

Any #Mets fans seriously wondering why I refuse to watch, this weekend? I snuck a peek here on Bluesky. We're likely gonna lose at least 90 games. This is light years beyond embarrassing. David Stearns should never again have another executive job with any other MLB team after ruining ours.

Elated to learn Juan Soto has been voted to start the MLB All-Star game as a #Mets player for the first time (he should've at least been named as a reserve last year). Well deserved!

Pretty accurate #Mets grades from Jon Harper, although Freddy Peralta gets too high a mark. sny.tv/articles/met...

That Cabo Verde-Argentina match? 😲😃😬😲😳🥺😲😲😲🤦🏿🤦🏿🤦🏿💔😢😫🤩😭😭😭 Absolute classic. If you're like me and cheered for Cabo Verde? Utter heartbreak. Easily the most exciting, tense, joyous, and saddest soccer match I've ever witnessed. Congratulations to Argentina, but impossible not to love underdog Cabo Verde.🇨🇻

Cabo Verde ties Argentina with a double nutmeg, first with a pass, then with a shot on goal! 😲And Cabo Verde's 40-year-old goalkeeper just robbed Lionel Messi of his potential go-ahead strike!😳

Lionel Messi is ridiculous. It's not ever a matter of IF he'll score, but WHEN. Admire the hell out of him and the Argentina squad, but holding out hope for a massive Cabo Verde upset.

Hey #Cubs fans! Gee, I guess David Peterson's pitching is SO much better with a solid defense behind him.😂 Really, thanks so much for taking him off #Mets hands.

Though I won't be watching #Mets series in Atlanta, it's good to see a lineup with AJ Ewing FINALLY hitting where he belongs, in the leadoff spot. Time to learn what the kid can do at the top of the order.

From MLB website: "The Brewers lost 8 of 9 playoff games Freddy Peralta pitched. Since '23, Peralta has started 5 playoff games, going 1-3 with a 5.55 ERA, averaging fewer than 5 IP per start." Does the concept of "due diligence" mean anything to #Mets Boy Blunder POBO #DFADavidStearns?

It's been hard enough over the last 28 years watching the #Mets play in Atlanta -- even when we've been pennant contenders. Therefore, the odds of my watching even one inning this weekend are about as remote as my flying to Hawai'i -- while jumping up in the air, while rapid-flapping my arms.

#Mets trade idea: Freddy Peralta to anywhere for a McDonald's Happy Meal and a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts.

Funny how many #Mets fans were in denial last season about the presence of clubhouse drama and then accused the media of clickbaiting, outright lying, and shit-stirring. The team owner just confirmed what anyone with the slightest power of visual observation saw last year on TV: something WAS off.

The $765M questions Cohen DIDN'T answer on "The Show" podcast: Even casual #Mets watchers could deduce from TV last year that Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor weren't simpático, but WHY? What specific incident or incidents led to the rift? What has happened to make the rift appear healed?

Random take on who the #Mets manager should be: someone who played, who has wisdom, a winning history, understanding of when to let players police themselves and when to hold players accountable, and who can cherry-pick useful analytics. Didn't we ALREADY have that manager in Buck Showalter?🤦🏿

Any other #Mets fans intrigued by former Met Pedro Martinez's "bad-places" today, angrily calling out the team for playing too individually, and having neither identity nor leadership. Wouldn't a responsible owner and POBO invite him for a frank, constructive dialogue and feedback session? But...

Any other #Mets fans still waiting to hear from Steve Cohen after he famously "bad-placed" several days ago, "I'll be speaking soon"? Sorry, but condescending to a fan about parking prices and telling uncomfirmed secondhand tales about the fan who held up the "Fire Stearns" sign at Citi ain't it.

So, I guess Uncle Steve decided not to address as after all?

Interesting about Phillies starter, Jesus Luzardo -- the Marlins made him available last winter and traded him to a division rival. Why weren't #Mets in on him?

So...Steve Cohen posted this morning, "I will be speaking soon."

So, #Mets fans, Uncle Steve posted that he "will be speaking soon" about 2 hours ago. What did he say, if anything?
