For all the talk of the Mets velocity...

Edinson Volquez's father died today in the Dominican Republic age 63, of heart disease.

A couple news outlets are reporting that Volquez has not been told. Fox has decided not to mention it during the broadcast.

But ESPN reports that he DID find out shortly before the game.

    • There’s a 0% chance Akin should get sent down if he keeps pitching the way he is. Tate is easily optioned before him at this point based off performance and maybe more importantly how Hyde has used them. Akin is probably his 4th most trusted reliever right now. I doubt he wants to lose him. Could that change? Absolutely. But right now it’s hard to see them sending him down - and they absolutely shouldn’t based on how he’s pitched. 
    • I guess I mean if they don’t feel more comfortable playing him in RF than O’Hearn then there is an issue. I know it is more than just defense considered, but still.

    • As it was happening on Cole Ragans' bad night, I was surprised the Royals let him go I think it ended up ~47 pitches.    Jeff Passan type people are going to remember that if anything goes wrong in the near term.
    • Hyde's generally made negative noises about that concept in the past, I believe. Corbin Burnes is here 1-year only to keep taking regular season turns up to 33 until the best possible playoff situation is earned, and whatever the baseball gods have in mind after that.    I don't think Sigbot is going to cannibalize any of its Burnes in a hot race for a SP6.
    • Hyde already shut the 6 man thing down last night.
    • Cowser the veteran over Hays the rookie?  Got it.
