Mejia, on Opening Day, in the bullpen, warmed up for the save. Then, he didn’t go to the mound. Instead, he went to the clubhouse.

Did you know the exact same thing happened to Parnell last Opening Day? Is that weird? Does that show systemic corruption in our ability to groom and prepare pitchers? Does that show that time is a flat circle that the Mets are cursed forever and that we will be forced to be hopeful only to lose our best players season after season to a weird disease known only as METS?

Did you also know that Mejia had TJ already in his career? He’s done forever. Stiffness = done forever.
