How the Mets’ roster might look with the returns of Todd Frazier and Jed Lowrie
The team is going to have some difficult decisions to make pretty soon A large reason for the Mets’ success so far this season has been the successful mixing and matching of players on the bench. Players like J.D. Davis, Dominic Smith, and Keon Broxton have all made contributions through some combination of spot starts, key pinch hitting at-bats, and late-inning defensive replacements. But with Todd Frazier on the verge of finishing his rehab assignment and Jed Lowrie’s eventual return, the 25-man roster which has brought the Mets this early success is going to be shaken up soon, and it...

Mets vs. Braves recap: Teheran outduels deGrom as Mets fall to Braves
Mets drop series finale in Atlanta to split series with Braves. After a heady start to this four game series in Atlanta, taking the first two games, the Mets got Vargas-ed Saturday evening but had to enter the finale feeling good, with the defending Cy Young Award winner taking the hill for them.
