Good Morning. Happy Birthday to Mike Cubbage and Mike Bordick. MLB.com Rates Mets with the best Draft Haul, the NY Post and SNY have Mets first half grades, and Dom goes on the 10 Day IL.
Section Links: Mets Links, Minor League Links, MLB Links, and This Day in Mets History
MLB.com: Teams with the hauls in 2022 Draft: #1 Mets. "New York got more than [Kevin] Parada, a Georgia Tech catcher who was one of the best all-around hitters in the college class, and [Jett] Williams, a 5-foot-8 sparkplug beloved by scouts. The Mets concluded the first day with Tennessee right-hander Blade Tidwell (second round), a likely mid-first-rounder before he missed the first six weeks of the season with shoulder trouble, and Washington D.C. high school outfielder Nick Morabito (supplemental second), who combines hitting ability with plus raw power and speed. The hits kept coming afterward, including a power arm in Florida righty Brandon Sproat (third) and offensive upside in California prep third baseman Jacob Reimer (fourth)."
NY Post: Mets first-half report card: One stands above all the rest. The Post says that's Edwin Diaz: A+; Here are the article's A's - Jeff McNeil: A; Brandon Nimmo: A; David Peterson: A; Taijuan Walker: A; Pete Alonso: A-; Francisco Lindor? He gets a B, a low grade IMO.
SNY.TV: Mets 2022 Midseason Grades for every key player. Buck gets an A; Pete Alonso GRADE: A+; Max Scherzer: GRADE: A+; Edwin Diaz: GRADE: A+; Francisco Lindor...GRADE: A
MLB,com: Here are 7 potential Juan Soto trade proposals. This includes - Mets get: OF Juan Soto. Nationals get: LHP David Peterson, C Francisco Álvarez (MLB No. 2 prospect), 3B/OF Brett Baty (MLB No. 20 prospect), SS Ronny Mauricio (MLB No. 52 prospect), OF Alex Ramirez (MLB No. 87 prospect).

Writer Joe Durso on Wes Westrum, who replaced Mets' Casey Stengel: "He was as much a loner as Stengel was an extrovert. He toiled over his job where Stengel whirled through it. He drank beer while Casey tossed down rye. After a close game, he'd say, 'That was a cliff-dweller.' " pic.twitter.com/JoLGJ2dxCA

Today in Mets History Per Ultimatemets.com:
Born on this date:
- Mike Cubbage (1950)
- Mike Bordick (1965)
- Brian Buchanan (1973)
- Brett Hinchliffe (1974)
New York Mets traded Jesse Gonder to the Milwaukee Braves for Gary Kolb on July 21, 1965.
1962 | Craig Anderson throws a seven-hit, complete-game against Cincinnati, but New York cannot overcome Marv Throneberry's error which would have ended the fifth inning, allowing Vada Pinson to hit a two-out, two-run homer. The eventual 5-3 defeat at Crosley Field makes the right-hander the third consecutive Mets' starter, following losing efforts by Jay Hook and Roger Craig, to pitch a complete game and not get a victory. |
1970 | Ignoring Clay Kirby's bid for the Padres' first no-hitter in the 259th of their existence, San Diego skipper Preston Gomez, with his club trailing the Mets, 1-0, in the eighth inning, decides to pinch hit for his starting pitcher. Reliever Jack Baldschun fails to keep New York hitless, yielding a leadoff hit to Bud Harrelson, and San Diego eventually loses the Jack Murphy Stadium contest, 3-0. (Ed. Note: The Padres remain the only franchise without a no-hitter. LP) |
1975 | Mets' infielder Joe Torre becomes the first player in National League history to hit into four straight double plays in one game. Felix Millan singles in four consecutive at-bats against the Astros, making the dubious mark possible. |
