Misi, aka the Miz, is Jacob Misiorowski, the Brewers' 24:year old wunderkind.
Does that answer any or all of your seven questions?
And yes, it was an insane game. He threw a Maddux while striking out 15. How is that even possible?

Brewers pitcher, oops sorry didn’t see reply on next page. Never mind
It wasn't me. I was just performing a public service.Maybe next time be less cryptic. I know who he is and the game he had. Misi?
After the Parade the shield of the Knicks will be taken away from Stearns and Mendoza
A stat which I think sums up this season nicely. Yesterday was the 34th time (out of 70 games, so just about half) that the Mets have allowed three runs or less. That's the good news.
The bad news is that they've only won 65% of those games. That's last in the majors.
So... While run prevention has actually worked, it has been at the cost of run generation, resulting in a net negative.

A week ago I guesstimated that the Mets needed to win 86 games to make the playoffs. To get there, they would need to play .588 ball for the remainder of the season, which is a 95 win pace.
The Mets then did what they've been doing for a while - treaded water. They now need to play .597 ball to get to 86 wins. That's a 97 win pace.
I do believe that at some point, the Mets will make a run. However, the longer they wait, that hill becomes steeper and steeper.

Exactly right and every day they are not playing .600 ball- that number goes up. If we don’t start a run today and the next week is under .600 ball- that will turn into .620 ball
and we are talking only about making a wildcard
Well now I’ve seen everything. The Mets have runners on first and second no outs, and SOTO bunts into a force play at 3rd. How the hell do these people in the Mets organization have jobs?
You think that was called by the manager? Or anyone other than Soto himself?
Ewing is going to try to outdo his buddy and get his own 5-5 but outdo him if he can get himself a triple....Love this kid
Took the series against the Braves. Exactly what we needed. Cincy next who are directly above us and struggling a bit lately. Let's do this!
Odd timing of that report. He's somewhat reputable yes but probably 50/50 at this kinda thing.
Many were shooting it down as he is about 50/50 on these things. Hoping Bo has finally clicked and not just on a short hot streak. This series was quite impressive, and hopefully they can keep it going against the Big Red Machine. Many moons ago in the 1990s, my office window had a view into right field of the Old Riverfront stadium. Reds had specials for afternoon games -$3 tickets and dollar hot dogs.
"Bo Bichette is now expected to..."
I am always leery of the use of the passive voice. Expected by whom? Did Bo confide in the writer under guarantee of anonymity? Maybe his agent? Buzz among other execs? Other reliable sources? Other unreliable sources? Voices in his head?
I would read nothing into this. If Bo's performance suggests that he can get a better deal than what he's got, he'll opt out. If his performance suggests otherwise, he won't. The Mets gave him a contract that guarantees that he will adversely select against them. Horrible contract (from the Mets perspective, not Bo's).
I continue to believe that Cohen/Stearns felt that had Kyle Tucker locked up. When they didn't, they had to do an 11th hour pivot and offer Bichette that horrible contract. Three years with two opt-outs!
But then, the reason Stearns was boxed in like that , was that the Dodgers gave Tucker an even more horrible contract.
Quite honestly- what would be Bo's reason to opt out? He is way overpaid with this contract and if he doesn't opt out, he will still be young enough for one more massive contract.
He may do it but I am not sure it would be the smartest thing for him.

One factor I forgot: I doubt Bichette opts out because of the uncertainty of the labor negotiations. I suspect that until that is resolved, if you have a bird in the hand you hold onto it.
Sammon reporting Christian Scott to the IL. Not clear what it is yet but believed to be minor. The injuries this year have been a killer.
I expect that the analysis was much more complex than this. One and only one part of that may be that the Mets were not that adverse to the idea of him opting out.
Yeah I don't see how Bo would opt out with labor uncertainty or what is the ramifications of opting out then having a work stoppage vs. opting in and having a work stoppage.
I also think the Mets were hoping either Baty or Vientos played well enough to replace Bo cheaply but both have been inconsistent to bad.
Yup, it takes two to tango, and Bichette and his agents have their reasons for liking the deal. If there's one thing about the future that is certain, it's that it's uncertain.
Is he available from the pen tonight.
Sheesh. 4-0 Cincinnati. Bases still loaded.
