If you have any link tips, suggest them to @Astromets31 on twitter and I’ll add them in.

            Check out yesterday’s results here, the Mets minor’s players of the week here, and all full season minor league stats from July here.

            ICYMI, Erik Goeddel made his first rehab appearance yesterday, and is eligible to come off the 60-day DL on 8/11. Also, Chris Flexen was promoted to the Savannah Sand Gnats after his start yesterday.

            I investigated whether Matt Reynolds has taken a step backwards this year – he’s been the same hitter, which is like taking a step backwards.
