IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Ceetar Jun 30 2012 08:55 AM

A winning record for June is one the line today. (14-13 so far) Santana is on the mound for the Mets, versus Nate Eovaldi who I'm pretty sure either has an extra vowel or is missing a consonant in his last name Scouting book says this: Nathan (not 'Nate', not ever 'Nate') Eovoldi is a hard-throwing, easy-armed righthander working his way to Dodger Stadium as a top Los Angeles prospect. With a 94mph fastball that looks effortless, Eovoldi worked his way right up to a sample start in Arizona last year, striking out seven in a five inning debut before removing himself via an embarrassing fielding tumble. He'll compete for a starting gig in 2012, and could very well win one despite his young age. Even if he doesn't, he should be in Dodger Blue before the season is half-finished. oh..and it's on Fox. sorry.

Dodgers start with an error by Dee Gordon..

Let's make em pay for that.

Ashie62 Jun 30 2012 05:24 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Torres was not paying attention.

Lefty Specialist Jun 30 2012 05:25 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Half an inning and Buck has yet to mention Derek Jeter.

Lefty Specialist Jun 30 2012 05:58 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

It's painful to listen to these guys. They obviously have no clue about these Mets. Waiting for Buck to refer to Eric Karros as 'Troy'.

Ashie62 Jun 30 2012 06:04 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Thats two running blunders by Torres.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 30 2012 06:35 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Muffy looks good again. That's something.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 30 2012 06:48 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Ike Davis just anally raped Don Mattingly.

Boo. In Michigan, Fox is showing Tigers-Rays. But I have to say I'm loving the Rays' pretend 1979 throwbacks.

For all of Ike's problems this year, he's certainly made his HRs count. That was his 6th 3R HR to go along with a Grand Slam out of the 11 he's hit

Also incredible is how streaky this team is. It's like two different teams are showing up for alternating series.

PiggiesTomatoes Jun 30 2012 07:04 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Boys are looking good again tonight. Ike above the Mendoza line and driving the ball. Pretty good. Pretty, pretty good.

Frayed Knot Jun 30 2012 07:07 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

I'm not sure if the entire team had 6 3R HRs plus a GS all last season (OK, so they actually had 14 + 3, but it's kinda close considering)

Torres is getting on tonight ... of course he's also getting erased half the time but it's progress.

seawolf17 Jun 30 2012 07:15 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Todd Coffey running in slow motion is TERRIFYING.

Looked like Jello jiggling.

seawolf17 Jun 30 2012 07:26 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

I'm still haunted by it. I'm glad I only have a 42" TV.

Frayed Knot Jun 30 2012 07:30 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Coffey running is particularly not a good idea in such a seismically active area.

PiggiesTomatoes Jun 30 2012 07:46 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Put this rally to bed, please.

Lefty Specialist Jun 30 2012 07:48 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

Santana es mas macho.

PiggiesTomatoes Jun 30 2012 08:00 PM Re: IGT 79 6/30/12 Mets @ former Brooklyn Robins

With 2nd and 3rd and no outs, it sure was nice of the Mets not to pile on.

Caught two innings on XM while driving home tonight, with the insufferable Charlie Steiner. Because his team was getting mauled he spent the entire time interviewing someone in their scouting department on some draft pick or free agent signing or something. Useless. Home in time for the last inning and a half on Fox. Man the Dodgers suck.

How many years were there when west coast trips were where dreams went to die?

Well, there was the one time they did the other thing.
