I thought fielding his position was suppose to be a weakness of Alvarez? Doesn't look like it. He's been awesome behind the plate.
Ronny Mauricio rips a two-run double off the wall! pic.twitter.com/e1PWhJ5uR9— SNY Mets (@SNY_Mets) May 21, 2023 Are we gonna end up seeing him or they are gonna hold him for trade bait? I don’t think we keep all these youngster. They are gonna end up trading someone for pitching.
Another come-from-behind win to complete the sweep, with Verlander getting the well-deserved win. 2:06 game time, too.
Francisco Álvarez has been an elite hitter in the month of May ♨️Over the last 15 days, he ranks first among all starting catchers in HR, RBI, XBH, and OPS pic.twitter.com/3GVjAd3GPy— SNY Mets (@SNY_Mets) May 22, 2023 Who said the stats call for demotion?They have two veteran catchers who they value and intend to play. The priority is to play Alvarez to help him get better defensively.— Buster Olney (@Buster_ESPN) May 22, 2023 Better defensively? What is he talking about? He’s been absolutely fine behind the plate.
Death, taxes, and vogelbach in the lineup? Not giving Vientos any continuity. Alvarez with the Homerun!
What was the point of bringing up Vientos? I don’t know what Vientos is but I know I’m not gonna find out with the sporadic way he’s been using him. Why is Alvarez batting 9th?

Half of Daniel Vogelbach's strikeouts -- 15 of 30 -- have been looking. Only two players have struck out at least 20x with the majority being backwards Ks: David Hensley and Jesse Winker.Showalter today: "People have been throwing [him] a lot of good pitches and getting ahead."— Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) May 26, 2023
I seriously don’t get this. I wanted Buck here but I’m honestly over him. Really haven’t been liking what he’s doing with this team. I don’t know how much is him or the front office/analytics but thumbs down! Let’s ride. #LGM🆚 Colorado💪 @Max_Scherzer📺 WPIX📻 @wcbs880 pic.twitter.com/87nEW1yYzf— New York Mets (@Mets) May 26, 2023
