Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

Edgy MD Jun 18 2013 02:32 PM

What you're likely going to see: the debut of Mets pitching prospect Zack Wheeler. What you're possibly going to see: the return of Mets veteran relief pitcher Scott Atchinson. What I hope you see: more of the former than the latter.

The Wheels on the bus go..

What I hope you see: more of the former than the latter. Screw all that. We're going to see Anthony Recker squatting with his britches drawn tight across his voluptuous derriere, his hair tousled when he tosses off his mask and helmet to clutch, ever so tenderly, a pop-up, and the gleam in his eye when he tells his pitcher, with nothing but a look, that everything is going to be fine. Just fine. If this guy could hit they'd have to show the games on Cinemax.

You make your long hyped MLB debut and this is the lineup you get MetsBlog.com ?@metsblog 41m #Mets lineup for Game 2: Cowgill - LF Murphy - 2B Wright - 3B Byrd - RF Satin - 1B Recker - C Lagares - CF Quintanilla - SS Wheeler - RHP

Recker's ass is really playing havoc with the thread.

Recker's ass can cause the tides to shift.

Edgy MD Jun 18 2013 05:29 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

Recker sent out to the mound to calm Wheeler down. Like that's gonna work. The movement and velocity seem strong, but the location is all over the place. Upton helps him out by chasing ball three before bouncing out to Wright.

metirish Jun 18 2013 05:31 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

Like Recker's visit to the mound his ass pic is distracting...............for some I should add.

I'll take a line single. I don't know Satin well enough to say if he can hit this guy, but Maholm seems real righty vulnerable.

Was just on the phone with oneA my brothers and his Extra Innings Package broadcast was app 6 minutes behind my MLB.TV feed. Thats crazy. Im seeing Reckers ass strike out and hes seeing Byrd get a lead off single. Yikes.

Nymr83 Jun 18 2013 05:42 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

Strike 3 to McCann, I like that Wheeler went at him 0-2 instead of fooling around with pitches in the dirt or something when his control hasn't been there yet...

He just seems to have this wide-open delivery that gives righthanders a really good look at the pitch.

I'm getting quite sick of these Braves and their infield choppers. Those two from Uggla in game one, the bunt-chopper that started this inning, and that one just there from Heyward that prevented any chance of a DP or even a force play. It's one thing if it's intentional but these are obviously not.

WOW. As the Byrd flies!

How many wall scrapers has Wright hit over the last week or so? Seems like about a dozen.

All the Uptons suck, Zvon sez.

Wow, colossally bad defense there by Atlanta. Thanks for the freebie.

Edgy MD Jun 18 2013 07:48 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

That's a Jackie Robinson-type run right there.

With the injuries to those couple of Braves' lefties, their pen isn't all that intimidating now unless and until you get to Kimbrel.

Zvon Jun 18 2013 07:52 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

Huge runs. 2 out hits. this is nice.

Lagares with the ribbie and more shoddy D by the Braves OF.

The Upton Brothers are playing like Dr. Joyce Brothers.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 18 2013 07:53 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

I'm not impressed at all with the Braves, beyond, you know, acknowledging they have a few good players. But jeez they ain't a 15-games-over-.500 team are they?

Edgy MD Jun 18 2013 07:53 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

Thanks, Jus'. Love me that two-out-rally action. Hey, I just got to third base with Anthony Recker! OHMYGAWDOHMYGAWD!!

They've somehow done it with half a lineup all year. Maybe it's the rest of the division all not having their shit together.

Q breaks game open.

Talk about the breaks. If Valvaro kicks that ball to a fielder, we're in the bottom of the inning with Aardsma or somebody and hanging on by the skin of our teeth.

They are because of their starting pitching. Erratic in a lot of other places though. Very hit-n-miss offense and, like I said a few posts ago, their pen isn't nearly as deep as what we've been used to in recent years, particularly from the left side.

Y'know, Nietzsche says: "Out of chaos comes order." Yes he did, during the football game in The Longest Yard. Meanwhile, Atchison expected to be out 2-3 weeks with rheumatism, consumption and the grippe.

For all the baseball that's been played today, Met pitchers have yet to throw a pitch behind in the score. That one friggin pitch to Freeman is the only real blemish in the last 22 hours.

Swan Swan H Jun 18 2013 08:17 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

They are like so totally scared of Anthony I mean it like they won't even throw him a strike.

Edgy MD Jun 18 2013 08:21 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

Anybody else notice that Swan Swan H has slowly but definitively become the funniest guy on the forum? Step it up, LWFS.

A flailing Freeman. What a beautiful ending. Gain two games in the standings in one day.

A successful double-header and perhaps a glimpse into the Harvey-heeler win-filled future! for any Heat-haters out there, they are down 10 to start 4th quarter of game 6 right now. its the Tim Duncan revival show so far tonight, 30 pts and a crazy 13-16 from the field

MFS62 Jun 18 2013 10:04 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

After the game, on the radio wrap-up, Howie said "Tomorrow's starter - Rafael Montero". He then quickly added, "Just kidding". Later

Edgy MD Jun 18 2013 11:25 PM Re: Wheels On: A Call to Arms IGT, Pt. II: 6/18/2013

Caught the Brewers in the league-wide standings. Next-to-last was really getting old.
