McNeil and Conforto put on the IL. Khalil Lee and Johneshwy Fargas, they of the zero major league appearances between them, will be replacing them. Oh boy. https://metsmerizedonline.com/2021/...promote-khalil-lee-and-johneshwy-fargas.html/
Pillar has multiple nasal fractures. He is meeting with a facial specialist to determine next steps. https://newyorkmets.medium.com/update-on-kevin-pillar-e475b4d6c186
Mets get three unearned runs, but the inning ends on Khalil Lee's 8th strikeout in 8 major league plate appearances.
As great as that bullpen day win was, it’s not ideal to use our relievers like that. (Rojas deserves a lot of credit for navigating this injury crisis.) It came back to bite us today, when they had to trot out Loup for one more pitch than he usually throws. Never thought that we’d need SPs, but here we are. Really hope that one of the kids is ready. Need to bridge this month, or until one of Cookie, Lugo, or Syndergaard comes back. Thankfully, an off day tomorrow. Fingers crossed and hold on, fellow Mets fans, this could get bumpy.
