Week 1: Sunday Roundup

Adorable elf Trea Turner needs a child-sized helmet.
Hey, it's my first time doing the roundup this season. Let's see how many Mets jokes we can cram in here.

STUDS: Christian Yelich (HG) just keeps on trucking. Hoe homered, doubled, drove in 3, walked 3 times and scored twice. Trea Turner (CB) homered twice and drove in 4, adding a steal and a third run scored. Trevor Williams (CB) struck out 6 in a 6 shutout innings for the win. Jake Arrieta (WLB) pitched kinda crappy but allowed only 1 run in 6 innings with 6 strikeouts for the win as the Braves wasted a gazillion walks. Ketel Marte (PM) tripled, singled, scored and drove in 2. Cody Bellinger (R) has a permanent reservation in this spot - he homered, singled twice and scored 3 runs. Sean Doolittle (YA) let in all the runners Trevor Rosenthal put on base to blow the save, but recovered for a 1.2-inning, 2 strikeout vulture win.

DUDS: Scott Schebler (HG) earned a spot on the pine with his 0-fer-and-an-error game. Walker Buehler - drafted 9th overall, let's not forget - had a rough first start, allowing 5 runs and striking out as many guys as I did yesterday in a 3-inning no decision. There will be better days for the pride of Vanderbilt, but yesterday was a stinker. Ender Inciarte (FF) walked and got caught stealing. Sonny Gray (FF) served up a steaming pile, allowing 2 earned runs in 2.2 innings to take the loss and making a really spectacular error. Eugenio Suarez - which you can't spell without a big ol' E - made an error and also walked.

Not a single Met joke! This is ridiculous. Where's Travis d'Arnaud when you really need him?
