Ashie62 Jul 13 2013 10:31 AM

First time Mets satrter Carlos Torres vs. old friend A.J. Burnett. I really don't want to post a lineup card with Ike Davis in it...

Zvon Jul 13 2013 02:30 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Okay Torres. You can do this. Just take it two innings at a time.

Edgy MD Jul 13 2013 02:51 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

A 0.51 ERA is a nice piece of armour with which to gird my loins. Now for a weapon with which to slay my foe... .

Edgy MD Jul 13 2013 06:11 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

End of three and 0-2-0 for each team. Torres may turn into a pumpkin soon enough, but so far he's been a revelation.

Ashie62 Jul 13 2013 06:12 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

And that ERA is heading lower...

Ashie62 Jul 13 2013 06:18 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

KANIEUWIE YEAH!

batmagadanleadoff Jul 13 2013 06:38 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Why am I not surprised that there would come a point this season when the Mets would be wearing their electric blue pajama tops virtually every single day? Alternates, schmalternates.

Edgy MD Jul 13 2013 06:42 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Big spot for Ike right here.

Edgy MD Jul 13 2013 06:42 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

And... he whiffs when all he needed was a hard out.

Ashie62 Jul 13 2013 06:43 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

That was effin pathetic Ike...

Edgy MD Jul 13 2013 06:44 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

And Marlon somehow beats out an infield hit for the RBI. Love this man, Metworld. Won't you?

Zvon Jul 13 2013 06:45 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Young was safe but could have been called either way. Nice double steal. Ohhhhhh Ike. That was a pretty pathetic swing. Another swing like that tonight and I jump on the Satin bandwagon. And Byrd beats out an infield single for an RBI! Byrd was flyin! 2-0 Mets.

batmagadanleadoff Jul 13 2013 06:47 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

"What the hell is there to do in Pittsburgh when Matt Harvey isn't starting?"

Ashie62 Jul 13 2013 06:52 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Eat at the Manny Sanguillen retaurant at PNC...

Ashie62 Jul 13 2013 06:54 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Time for the parade of relievers...knock yourself out Terry...

Zvon Jul 13 2013 07:01 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

HUGE double play. Can Torres recoup? Or is five innings all we can expect from him.

Fman99 Jul 13 2013 07:05 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Well that was a nice GIDP induced. Having said that, as terrible as the Fox announcers are, every game not on WPIX is a winner for me since I get to watch.

Zvon Jul 13 2013 07:11 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Young still doin it. Knocks out A.J. Buck runs like he's underwater.

Zvon Jul 13 2013 07:17 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Murph knew that was a strike. Damn. He has a lil hitting streak going but is still hovering around .270.

Edgy MD Jul 13 2013 07:19 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Tied up. May be the magick of PNC, but this sounds like a playoff crowd.

Zvon Jul 13 2013 07:19 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Aardsma! Come on. Do your job. McClutchen ties it with a solo boomer.

Fman99 Jul 13 2013 07:20 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Darn.

Fman99 Jul 13 2013 07:35 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Fish Bird just killing it recently. Byrd: .265/15 HR/50 RBI BJ Upton .177/8/20 Have some of that.

Zvon Jul 13 2013 07:37 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

I didn't think it possible but Kirk takes the lead in worst pathetic swing of the game. Ike had a decent at bat there.

Zvon Jul 13 2013 07:42 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Oh man. Ike, if you can't stop that what good are you!? It was hit hard but he didn't even have to move.

Fman99 Jul 13 2013 07:43 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Ugh, Ike. First he boots the grounder and then he can't glove the double play attempt from Wright. (OE: Replay shows it wasn't a great throw, but still).

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 13 2013 07:44 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Tough error on Ike, that ball was smoked. Jordanny Valdespin has been called to my office after the game.

Edgy MD Jul 13 2013 07:46 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Valdespin really has no role on this team. But man... two men on with McCutcheon coming up. Fittest-looking guy in beisbol, and damned good to boot.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 13 2013 07:50 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Terry is not afraid of losing his 2nd shortstop that's for sure. The 3-pitch whiffs are really adding up. Meantime, Burke getting the groundballs but they're hit awfully hard.

Zvon Jul 13 2013 07:50 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Shit. Just out of Wrights reach. Burke, you let me down *sob. 3-2 Bucs

Kong76 Jul 13 2013 07:51 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Hate McCutchen, want him on my team.

Zvon Jul 13 2013 07:57 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Edgin needs to settle down. Bases all Pirated. 2 out.

Fman99 Jul 13 2013 07:57 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

BOOOO

Zvon Jul 13 2013 07:58 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

That, my good man, was the opposite. Walks in a run. 4-2

Frayed Knot Jul 13 2013 08:01 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Geez, at least make them earn it!!

Zvon Jul 13 2013 08:18 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Okay, sit up folks. Comeback time.

Zvon Jul 13 2013 08:20 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Oh, Young disagrees.

Zvon Jul 13 2013 08:22 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

booooooooooooooooooooooooooring.

Fman99 Jul 13 2013 08:22 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Well that sucked a Hefty bag full of dicks.

Edgy MD Jul 13 2013 08:22 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Well, they ain't got much O --- not much more than the Mets, at any rate --- but Clint Hurdle's team is for real.

Zvon Jul 13 2013 08:25 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

I like the Bucs. I'll be home rootin for em in the post season, as will the Mets.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 13 2013 08:28 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

have we lost 5 of 6 to them already? They are better than we are.

Frayed Knot Jul 13 2013 08:33 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Not going to win very often scoring two runs a night.

Kong76 Jul 13 2013 08:36 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Unless you have some intangibles. Really didn't want to go into the break this way, hope they can pull a win out of their ass tomorrow.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Jul 13 2013 08:38 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Fittest-looking guy in beisbol, and damned good to boot. BetterHalfer: Who is that guy? Me: Andrew McCutchen. He's great. The kind of guy I wish we had more of, really. BetterHalfer: He's great, all right. Great looking. Me: [Suddenly glad we have no ASG tickets] I like the Bucs team. Regarding the fans, though? The stoopid SugarPants booing is starting to leave a bad taste in my mouth. Your guy is on the furshluggineh home-run-fest squadron, french-fry-sandwiches-for-brains.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 13 2013 08:40 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

yeah, that's weak shit, Pittsburgh. I'd almost be disappointed if we didn't hear that kind of crap from Philly, but I thought you were above that.

Well, actually that was kind of different Met team back then, wasn't it? One thing in common? Ike Davis. Ha! I had to go there. Im still supporting Ikes re-election for first. But he's runnin outta rope.

Nymr83 Jul 13 2013 08:47 PM Re: IGT 7/13/13 Mets @ Pirates Torres v. Burnett

Great effort by Torres tonight!

Nice way to blow the road trip to bits... What a tease this suckoid team is...
