...we can make it through the night, given the 9:05 start.

No WPIX on FIOS in Syracuse, so I am listening to Josh and Howie on my phone courtesy of XM. Better than nothing, anyway.

KABOOMBA DUDA!

Getting one-hit thru six = not good Having two of the base runners we did get thrown out on the base paths = even worse

I'm totally buying into the church of Trout and was sure he was going to snag that Recker hit ... and was convinced he was going to steal the Duda HR earlier on for that matter. I heard this reliever, Michael Kohn, is tough ... but his brother Ghengis, now there was a nasty pitcher.

Tying run on base? The Best Player In Baseball coming up? No problem, kiddies-- Carlos Torres remains... THE Competent Mets Reliever. And his slider is a soother.

Frayed Knot Apr 12 2014 09:28 PM Re: IGT 4/12/14 NYM @ LAA: Niese-Weaver, I Believe...

I don't want to say that these DPs wouldn't have been turned with Ruben in there ... but given his play of late I'm not so sure they would have been. All that last one would have taken is a split second hesitation and suddenly inning over morphs into tying run on 1st w/Prince Albert coming up.

Yeah, nice to see Ruben playing with confidence out there. Nice to see Davis taking his walks, too.

So how often do you suppose that this Jepsen reliever gets teased that his manager will 'call him maybe' about coming in to the game?

Edgy MD Apr 12 2014 09:39 PM Re: IGT 4/12/14 NYM @ LAA: Niese-Weaver, I Believe...

Big night for the second string.

The walks ratio is completely flipped tonight. OK it's not 10-0 like it was in game 1 of this series, but it is 6-1, in the Mets favor this time, and not surprisingly it's making a huge difference. and now an HBP

Not that I think in the long run that Q is going to be more of an offensive force than Tejada, but I am starting to wonder about a defensive gap being more permanent.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Apr 12 2014 09:47 PM Re: IGT 4/12/14 NYM @ LAA: Niese-Weaver, I Believe...

A shortstop who could also lead off makes so much sense for this team, especially if you are expecting C Young to contribute starting next week. Perhaps Gregorious leaves PHX with us.

Tying run at the plate. A couple of things would make sense.

Can't be walking Aybar there. Hell, groove three to him, the most he's going to do is hit a double and,even if he does, you're no worse off facing Ibanez they you are with the walk.

Perhaps Gregorious leaves PHX with us. We'd have to stop in Reno to pick him up. He played just the two Australia games with the big club and has been in AAA since getting back.

But he's hitting down there.

What a game by Q.

Edgy MD Apr 12 2014 10:42 PM Re: IGT 4/12/14 NYM @ LAA: Niese-Weaver, I Believe...

Maybe it's a byproduct of nobody being on base, but Recker doesn't seem highly effective at blocking pitches in the dirt.

Edgy MD Apr 12 2014 10:43 PM Re: IGT 4/12/14 NYM @ LAA: Niese-Weaver, I Believe...

German looking like a man lining up to be the team's next closer.

I would call John Lannan the Mets' white flag, except I don't think TC intends to surrender; he just doesn't know any better yet. Anyway... here goes.
