[u:jxj4yj4e]The Washington Post[/u:jxj4yj4e]'s new beat reporter (Chico Harlan is now the Post's reporter in Japan), gives the Mets a couple of shots today. I don't mind us insulting the Mets, I do it all the time, but not an outsider. First paragraph: "The Washington Nationals and New York Mets, connected by Amtrak, I-95 and grim expectations, will play 17 more times this season, meetings that will most likely determine which one of them finds solace in not finishing last." Last paragraph: "For now, the Nationals can find comfort in two things. The season is only four games old, and on Saturday, at least they get to play the Mets again." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/co ... 06110.html

bmfc1 Apr 10 2010 12:10 PM Re: IGT, Nationals @ Mets, 04/10/10

Bases loaded, none out, two innings in a row, and the hitters only got one run in (Ollie drove in the other one).

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Apr 10 2010 12:14 PM Re: IGT, Nationals @ Mets, 04/10/10

What bothers me is that I've been conditioned to expect-- forget the "half-"-- the team to blow bases-loaded situations. I'm happily surprised when someone actually crosses home these days.

Frayed Knot Apr 10 2010 12:17 PM Re: IGT, Nationals @ Mets, 04/10/10

Obviously the Francoeur AB killed that inning. That's at least the third time in five games where one of our guys has hit the ball less than 2 ft from home plate. Wright did it once in the Florida series and so did at least one other guy. btw, 2.5 runs is the average number a team should expect from a bases-loaded/no-outs situation. - so we're down three today since it happened twice and only 2 runs came out of them.

Y'know how they say a guy "scattered" a bunch of hits, if he lets up more than a handful of baserunners and only lets 1 or 2 of them score? Ollie's the exact opposite sort. He clusters his runners. He's a clusterer. Lord knows he's clustering today.

Hanked on that one. Flerg. Y'know, for a team that seems to lean too heavily to the right, batting-wise, the Mets seem awfully easy this year to shut down with a middling lefty.

I understand that it's difficult to catch a day game after a night game, so I understand why Barajas isn't catching even though he hit two homers last night, but then why is Pudge playing again?

smg58 Apr 10 2010 02:43 PM Re: IGT, Nationals @ Mets, 04/10/10

I'm guessing Clippard won't be the Nats' sixth-inning guy for long. Jesus Christ, could Bay have possibly had a worse at-bat? I'm officially against giving Matt Capps any outs ever again. Speaking of Capps, he's allowed eight baserunners in three innings of work so far this season, and has two saves and a zero ERA to show for it. Unfortunately, the bullets he won't dodge will probably come against other teams. (I'm assuming, perhaps naively, that a game that starts with Johan vs. Livan will not require the Mets to get to Capps in order to secure a victory.) A good call by the Nets manager to move Harris to left even with Zim hurt. Willingham would have never come close to making that play.

Julia Stiles throwing out the first pitch was clearly the highlight. That and the scarves they gave out, which came in handy in this Bob Seger of a day, sitting against the wind. Lots of inane fans in my Prom section, the dumbest of them being the douche who started a Ruben Tejada chant when Reyes made his error and did it every time he came up.

David Lennon

Willie Harris did it again. Rod Barajas, pinch hitting in the bottom of the ninth Saturday, crushed the first pitch from Matt Capps for a blistering line drive into leftfield, but Harris, in a do-or-die effort, laid out to snare the ball inches above the grass. The Mets have seen this much too often with Harris. Back in 2008, Harris made a game-ending diving grab in the ninth to rob Ryan Church. A year earlier, while with the Braves, he reached above Shea's leftfield wall to rob Carlos Delgado of a certain home run in a 7-6 Mets loss. "It's nothing with me or those guys," Harris said. "I think, when you have 5,000, 10,000 people out there calling you all kinds of names and saying all kinds of things - which aren't nice - you've got to find some way to make 'em hush.
