IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

For Keith, Edguardo, and John Lee: [youtube]ZXo-ACXBSp8[/youtube] Milwaukee at NY Mets When: 7:10 PM ET, Thursday, June 12, 2014 Where: Citi Field, New York City, New York SportsDirect Inc. The Milwaukee Brewers can become the second team in the National League to reach 40 wins when they wrap up an eight-game road trip in the finale of a three-game set versus the host New York Mets on Thursday. Milwaukee rode a strong pitching performance from Wily Peralta to knot the series with the Mets at one game apiece and sends out ace Kyle Lohse on Thursday. Catcher Jonathan Lucroy is riding a seven-game hitting streak that lifted his batting average to .341. After creeping within a game of the .500 mark, New York has regressed with a 1-7 mark in its last eight games while failing to score more than four runs in any of the losses. One reason for the offensive ineptitude is the ongoing struggles of captain David Wright, who is mired in a 1-for-26 rut and doesn't have an RBI or an extra-base hit in the last eight games. Left-hander Jonathon Niese, one of the few constants this season, opposes Lohse in the series finale. TV: 7:10 p.m. ET, FSN Wisconsin, SNY (New York) PITCHING MATCHUP: Brewers RH Kyle Lohse (7-2, 3.27 ERA) vs. Mets LH Jonathon Niese (3-3, 2.68) Lohse had won a major league-best seven straight decisions, including a three-hit shutout against the Chicago Cubs, prior to a shellacking by Pittsburgh last time out. Lohse has yielded three runs or fewer in 11 of his 13 starts and surrendered one walk or less in his last nine outings. Lohse has struggled against the Mets in his career with a 2-4 record and a 5.40 ERA in 10 starts but hasn't faced them since June 2012. Niese has pitched better than his record indicates, failing to factor in the decision in his last three starts despite allowing two runs in each of them. Niese has not permitted more than three earned runs in any of his 12 starts and keeps the ball in the park, surrendering five home runs over 77 1/3 innings. He is 2-0 with a 5.68 ERA in five career starts against Milwaukee, including six innings of two-run ball on Sept. 29. WALK-OFFS: 1. Brewers CF Carlos Gomez owns a nine-game hitting streak and has reached safely in 26 straight games. 2. Wright is 9-for-21 with a pair of homers against Lohse. 3. Lohse has yet to win at Citi Field, posting an 0-2 record with a 6.28 ERA in three starts.

At least when we traded Gomez away, we got a few great years from Johan in return. But Minny gave him away for one partial season of JJ Hardy. Kudos to the Brews for allowing him the time (and drugs) to blossom over the last few years. It's strange to realize that, after so many years in the majors, he's still only 28 and in his prime.

I got to see his first major-league homer. It was in Detroit during an otherwise disastrous 15-7 pounding at the hands of the Tigers. But it was still fun -- I don't get to see the Mets in person often.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 12 2014 03:09 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

That is kinda whacko. What I don't get os why Terry simply cannot try and get C Young going anywhere but in the middle third. It may be too late for redemption but I'd have had him every day batting 7th until he got it or not.

In general he sticks too much to a righty-lefty alternating plan and too little to making sure the best hitters are the ones getting the most AB.

Benjamin Grimm Jun 12 2014 03:21 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

I wonder, if Lagares and/or Eric Young were healthy, would they have bailed on Chris Young by now? And when one or both of them come back, will that be the end of Chris? I'd like to think it will. This is shaping up as another nowhere season, so let's give at bats to Nieuwenhuis or den Dekker instead of to someone who has no future with the team.

Ashie62 Jun 12 2014 04:28 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

If Nieuwenhuis and Den Dekker are part of the Mets future we are in worse shape than I thought..

They guaranteed him some at-bats. He got them. He's not cutting it. Yea, sit him. And in the same light I feel that way about Abreu being out there. And it's not that he's not cutting it but he's not part of the teams future. He's not gonna make any difference in the long run. Off the bench, fine, that's what he's there for. A start here and there, fine. But he's been out there way too much. Him batting lead off is crazy talk (re: that other thread). Not because he wouldn't be good or bad, but because we have to find who that lead-off hitter is gonna be for us, and it ain't gonna be him.

Hard liner to CF which Gomez tried to shoestring but fanned on. Was lucky at that point to hold him to only a triple (single + 2B E to be precise) Abreu then hit a Sac Fly to LF on the next pitch.

Zvon Jun 12 2014 06:30 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

6th inning? Very fast game...so far.

Frayed Knot Jun 12 2014 06:33 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

1-1 games are supposed to be fast. We've just be conditioned lately to think anything under 3:00 is unusual.

KB joins the grounds crew and helps drag the infield after the sixth inning - too funny!

Ashie62 Jun 12 2014 06:39 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

Wright is trying soooo hard. Someway the Mets need to get a big slugging guy to take the heat off David and let him be a tremendous complementary player not expected to carry the team..... Kevin is kinda cute....

1-1 games are supposed to be fast. We've just be conditioned lately to think anything under 3:00 is unusual. I bet it'll go 22 innings. 22 fast innings.

Edgy MD Jun 12 2014 06:45 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

Key to staying in games for Mets: Trade away talented young players, but not before bribing or hypnotizing them to one day, down the road, making a big, dumb, multi-base error.

Edgy MD Jun 12 2014 06:46 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

Don't like that double switch, huh?

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Jun 12 2014 06:59 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

I think he has, like, a mid-inning-replacement tic. I'm not even kidding.

Zvon Jun 12 2014 07:00 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

I don't like this. Might be the right move, but I don't like it. 97 pitches, 2 out in the 8th. The Gomez single is a bump but I'd give Niese the 8th.

Edgy MD Jun 12 2014 07:01 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

The guy has reached all three trips, though.

Zvon Jun 12 2014 07:02 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

Even if it works, I don't like it.

Fman99 Jun 12 2014 07:06 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

It worked out. He was due up in the bottom of the 8th anyway so he was just about out of time to play.

Edgy MD Jun 12 2014 07:07 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

Good news: it worked. Another interesting part of that move is that he switched out the next-to-last batter of the inning (Brown) instead of the last one (Wilmer). They're sticking with the hitter over the fielder at short in a tight game.

Fman99 wrote: It worked out. He was due up in the bottom of the 8th anyway so he was just about out of time to play. Still. This was Niese's game. He knew he'd be out after 8. I'd have gone out and asked him. Can you get this guy this time? I'd like to think Jon is now mature enough to be honest. And if he wanted to stay in, he should have been given that confidence. That kind of support. They aren't supporting him at the plate, that's for sure.

Zvon Jun 12 2014 07:13 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

Another ND for Niese. Who on earth would want to be a starting pitcher on the Mets? Okay, my frustration is vented. Back to being happy :)

It's part of the limited-commercial broadcast. I'm kinda frustrated to finally see behind the curtain, too, knowing that I have to go back tomorrow.

I guess I'm in a bad mood tonight. I didn't realize it until I watched the Mets for 3 innings. I don't hold it against Familia that he was inserted. GJ Jeurys.

Good to see Wright might get a few swings against a lefty. Soupy too, looks like.

Still the best deal if you want to see as many Met games as possible. I don't think we could get SNY where we are even if we wanted it. Comcast has this MLB package. Can't choose the Met home broadcast thou. Fuck that. I tried to get the game on the radio earlier and I'm very disappointed in the reception down here in SJ.

Fun to see diving stops in the rain. But the guy can't get up until he slides at least five feet. Still probably had no chance of getting Braun.

Just had a taro-leaf-wrapped sticky-rice leftover thing, smothered in Sriracha. Then that. Now I can't tell where the stomachache is coming from.

And we get K-Rod and his big nasty wad of chaw in the bottom of the inning. And nobody to pinch-hit for the pitcher.

Can't get 16 hits over 31 innings as a team and expect to win all that often.

Should be taking a strike, Wrighty. He's still K-Rod.

Edgy MD Jun 13 2014 07:14 AM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

I was thinking they have to try something with regard to Young, but it's not like he's the worst thing they've got going. The arms are ready before the bats are. We knew that was how things were unfolding, but didn't quite know it would be this stark. It's scarcely noticeable, because the distinctions between starters and reserves are so blurred, but their three "starting" outfielders --- that is, those who've gotten the plurality of the team's outfield starts --- were all down with injuries last night.

Edgy MD Jun 13 2014 07:37 AM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

Laggy really bit the big one with the bases loaded there, taking a fastball over the heart of the plate for strike one, and then tapping out to the drawn-in infield on the slider away.

A leadership change may well be a-brew, but Wallace isn't the only candidate. No doubt many desire a team that reflects Wally's reputation fire. If fire gets Flores to rip that first fastball into the gap, instead of tapping out to first on the slider away, I'm all for it.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 13 2014 12:29 PM Re: IGT 06/12 - Brewcrew at Metsies

I don't think they go management-whacking 2 times in a row, unless it comes out that David Wright is tuning him out or Terry beats his wife or something. I think a player personnel move has to happen, and maybe something significant. Maybe they move Muffy, along with deGrom.
