IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2011 02:35 PM

I had a mini-winning streak a week or so back and we are NOT going to lose 3rd place to these chumps. Wang v Gee Reyes - SS Tejada - 2B Duda - RF Wright - 3B Pagan - CF Harris - LF Evans - 1B Thole - C Gee - P Bay apparently with a sore shoulder

Ceetar Sep 13 2011 02:42 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Bay sitting cause of a sore shoulder, something that seems to have been bothering him for a good portion of this season.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2011 06:20 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Ummmm, we're still not hitting. Fortunately, neither are they. Scoreless in the 5th.

Ron has a thing for Ankiel, second day of slobbering over him.

Quiet round these parts. I'm watching but I'm having trouble caring.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2011 06:57 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

The defensive deficiencies of Duda on display in this inning -- not an error, but a leadoff bloop single that had a lot of air and is caught by probably 90% of ML OFers. And then a two-out hit which never should have even come to bat ties the game and gets us into the pen sooner than you'd like.

One thing Terry's got to remember when he thinks about putting on the bunt sign ... the fact that our entire team suxx at it! Including the pitchers.

bmfc1 Sep 13 2011 07:26 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

You're right FK. They might as well concede the out and save us a few minutes.

metsguyinmichigan Sep 13 2011 07:28 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Now we know Parnell doesn't pitch well in the seventh-inning, either.

bmfc1 Sep 13 2011 07:30 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Parnell will do great in ST when there's no pressure and will fool everybody again. I guess Terry forgot that Zimmerman got the GW hit off Parnell 10 days ago.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 13 2011 07:30 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Um, what was up with that would-be DP Ankiel hit, though, JoseJose?

bmfc1 Sep 13 2011 07:31 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

ARGH!!!

Another failed bunt. Way to get your money's worth out of that at bat, Reuben.

bmfc1 Sep 13 2011 07:33 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Here's a wacky idea: how about having Reyes steal?

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 13 2011 07:33 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

It's like Collins is stuck in AngryDad mode re: bunting. ("We WILL get this right; I don't care if I have to give away 30 outs and 50 runs before we do, DAMMIT.")

bmfc1 Sep 13 2011 07:35 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Way to work the count Lucas.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 13 2011 07:36 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

I have a sneaking suspicion both managers are making a little buck-per-managerial-move secret bonus or something.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 13 2011 07:39 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Jeez, Coffey, put on a brassiere-- there are children watching.

Ashie62 Sep 13 2011 07:40 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Has Reyes done much of anything since the all-star break?

John Cougar Lunchbucket Sep 13 2011 07:41 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

awful

bmfc1 Sep 13 2011 07:41 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Leadoff walk to Reyes and he stays put. With each game, the positive opinion I had for Terry fades away.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2011 07:42 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

They're handing this game away even worse than last night's.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2011 07:59 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

We're also going on about six innings of not getting a single fucking hit off one of their relievers!! (OK, that's probably an exaggeration but it's close)

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2011 08:17 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

WOW! A fucking hit!!! Now we've got one more runner we can strand on base.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 13 2011 08:18 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Think Jose's got a RED light from on high?

John Cougar Lunchbucket Sep 13 2011 08:18 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Here we go

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2011 08:19 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

I'll take back all the fucking things I've said about this fucking team if Duda parks a fucking pitch in the fucking stands.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 13 2011 08:20 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

This is not the walk-off hero you're looking for.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2011 08:20 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Fucking pathetic.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Sep 13 2011 08:20 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Storen just destroyed him there.

bmfc1 Sep 13 2011 08:21 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

That's at least the 3d time this year that Storen struck out a Met to end a game with his slider. How come I know it's coming but the batters look surprised?

MFS62 Sep 13 2011 09:29 PM Re: IGT - Tuesday 9/13 -- Nats @ Mets

Just got home. Only was able to catch the bottom of the ninth in the car radio. The guys in the booth also commented that the Mets hadn't gotten a hit off the bullpen until the ninth. Hagin belaboring the obvious "All the hits were off the starter". From the box score, it looks like the losing run was put on by Thayer, but it was driven in off Parnell. Is that so? If they're grooming him to be an eighth inning guy or closer of the future, shouldn't he starting an inning? Later

Later was first and second two outs when they brought Parnell in. he gave a grounder through the hole. It was hard hit, but he wasn't exactly clobbered. Got the next guy, scoreless 8th. gave up a single in the 9th but got two outs. His velocity was all over the place. 95-96 a lot. seemed to throw some changeups, which is out of character, but he pitched well. I'm starting to worry that he might be a little burnt out, although most of the Mets look that way.
