I liked what I heard about Wheeler possibly being with the big club this year.

SHaM City, Baby. [list]Body be-eats! I hate Ben Sheets! I don't even know why![/list:u]

Ashie62 Jul 15 2012 12:45 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

He is painfully effective thus far, but what 75 pitch cap coming?

bmfc1 Jul 15 2012 12:47 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

Meanwhile in Miami, tweets say that Ozzie Guillen pointed at bat at the Nationals dugout and told Bryce Harper "fuck you kid".

Edgy MD Jul 15 2012 12:57 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

That's almost a benediction from Ozzie. Back in Atlanta, C.B. Bucknor is having a crap-ass series.

bmfc1 Jul 15 2012 01:03 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

Good for Warthan. "TIME OUT!" "Whatever you want, Mr. Bourn." Despite this--catch the fucking ball, Torres and Johan, don't walk the #8 hitter. While I'm venting: Pagan for Ramirez and Torres--I didn't mind seeing Pagan go, but nice return, Sandy!

Swan Swan H Jul 15 2012 01:10 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

This was all started because Andres Torres got his usual lousy jump on the leadoff double. I was tired of Pagan, but they got took on that deal. OE: bmfc1 got there first.

Frayed Knot Jul 15 2012 01:14 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

We can blame the umps and/or Sandy all we want, but this pitching staff has spent the last ten games or so as if in some sort of contest to see how many two-out RBI hits they can give up. And if that weren't enough, the bats are getting two-hit by a guy who hasn't pitched in the majors since George Bush was in the White House and I'm not even sure which one.

Frayed Knot Jul 15 2012 01:18 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

And then of course the best way to answer a big inning is to have the top of your order go out 1-2-3 without getting a ball out of the infield.

bmfc1 Jul 15 2012 01:19 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

FK: do you think that the starters have come back to their norm? Johan looked like a rookie that inning, walking a piece of crap like Janish and then possibly losing his concentration after Bucknor's fuck-up.

Ceetar Jul 15 2012 01:27 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

that damn air raid siren when the Braves score is really annoying.

Frayed Knot Jul 15 2012 01:28 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

Does it matter? The starters ALL suck right now for whatever reason. But, beyond that, the hitters suck, the defense sucks, and the relievers have always sucked. At one point yesterday four different pen guys managed to start 11 straight Brave hitters off with ball one. Santana walking not only Janish but also Sheets (who hits like sheet) is merely continuing the tradition.

bmfc1 Jul 15 2012 01:29 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

Too bad the Mets are making us hear that siren so often.

Frayed Knot Jul 15 2012 01:29 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

Sheets, btw, pitched twice in AA (total of 10 innings) and gave up 7 runs on 12 hits.

That pythagorean imbalance straightened itself out weeks ago. It has nothing to do with what's going on now.

Edgy MD Jul 15 2012 02:09 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

Seriously. This is a show-some-pride inning here.

Edgy MD Jul 15 2012 02:12 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

I meant pride for the Mets.

Edgy MD Jul 15 2012 02:16 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

Sheesh. I never thought I'd see the day where we were beaten by the glove of Matt Diaz. See ya, Atlanta.

Frayed Knot Jul 15 2012 02:16 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

When Matt Freakin' Diaz is making back-to-back good plays against you to end games, you know you ticked off the baseball gods somewhere.

Ashie62 Jul 15 2012 04:26 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

Palisades Park would have been more fun..

If a team that has been playing "over its head" for lack of a better phrase loses three in a row lie 10-1 does that "even" things. I wonder sometimes if it is as simple as "a win is a win is a win."

Zvon Jul 15 2012 05:19 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

Swept. Gah! Well, according to my research of this season, that means we will sweep the Nats, get swept by L.A, and then sweep Washington again!

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 15 2012 06:16 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

eff Santana in this game. He coulda helped himself with a sac bunt.

Frayed Knot Jul 15 2012 06:30 PM Re: IGT, 7/15, Mets @ Sheets

Not giving up 17 consecutive two-out hits would have been a help also.
