Miami at NY Mets When: 7:10 PM ET, Monday, September 15, 2014 Where: Citi Field, New York City, New York SportsDirect Inc. The Miami Marlins and the New York Mets are likely too far behind in the National League wild-card race, but they have both taken steps forward in 2014. The Marlins, who have already won 10 more games than last season with 72, visit New York on Monday to begin a three-game series between the NL East rivals. Miami is 6 ½ games behind Pittsburgh for the NL’s second wild card and the Mets are one more game back, needing a strong final two weeks to post their best record since 2008. Jarred Cosart faces the Mets for the first time and New York will counter with rookie Jacob deGrom, who is 2-0 while permitting just one earned run in 20 innings over three starts against Miami. The Marlins rallied for four runs in the ninth to beat Philadelphia 5-4 Sunday and snap a four-game losing streak. The Mets (72-78), who need to finish 8-6 for its most wins since recording 89 in 2008, have dropped three of their last four. TV: 7:10 p.m. ET; FSN Florida (Miami), SNY (New York) PITCHING MATCHUP: Marlins RH Jarred Cosart (13-9, 3.70 ERA) vs. Mets RH Jacob deGrom (8-6, 2.62) Cosart continues to shine for the Marlins since he was acquired from Houston at the trade deadline, boasting a 4-2 record with a 1.93 ERA in seven starts. The former 38th-round pick gave up two runs (one earned) over six innings to lose at Milwaukee in his last start on Wednesday. Cosart, who has allowed only eight homers in 163 innings, beat Atlanta twice and the Los Angeles Angels in his previous three outings. One of the keys in New York’s resurgence has been deGrom, who is 2-0 while yielding two runs (none earned) and 12 hits over 21 innings in his last three starts. The 26-year-old beat Miami on Sept. 3 when he permitted one unearned run over six innings. Casey McGehee is 3-for-8 versus deGrom, who has given up three or fewer runs in 17 of his first 20 major-league starts while striking out 121 in 127 1/3 innings. WALK-OFFS: 1. The Mets are 5-1 at home and have won 10 of 16 games overall against Miami this season. 2. The Marlins have won a major league-leading 33 one-run games in 2014, breaking the franchise record of 32 set in 1997 and 2000. 3. New York CF Juan Lagares is batting .333 with 18 hits and seven stolen bases in 13 September games.

Nieuwenhuis has got to be getting pissed at this point. What do yo think it is that we don't we know about that guy?

The return of Jordany! Wonder if John Buck will be flying in.

Zvon Sep 15 2014 05:12 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM

Only one thing left for me to root for. Lets get deGrom his 10 wins and with that, his ROY.

Zvon Sep 15 2014 05:31 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM

Gap em like that and your Lazy Feets don't matter. d' single, Duda walk, and Flores clears the bases with a double about a foot over the shortstop. 2-0 Metropolitans

Zvon Sep 15 2014 05:35 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM

deGrom Ks first five batters. 6 ties the Mets team record.

Zvon Sep 15 2014 05:36 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM

YEAAAAAAAA. Ks first 6 batters! Didn't hear for sure but the MLB record might be 8.

It's the NYM record from the start of the game. Seaver, of course, has the overall consecutive record of ten, and it had to stop there because the game was over. From the start of the game eight is the ML record: Jim Deshaises - Houston 1986 ... and that was the guy the 'stros didn't want to pitch against us.

Edgy MD Sep 15 2014 05:47 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM

I guess I was wrong about Falcone. Generous call maybe on that strike three. Guy looks nervous.

Zvon Sep 15 2014 05:48 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM

Well, thats baseball, huh? deGrom ties the MLB record. Wow. Edgy MD Sep 15 2014 05:50 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM He totally looks over-keyed. Zvon Sep 15 2014 05:56 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM You hear that when Deshaises K'd the first 8 the opposing team pinch hit for the starting pitcher. Wacky stuff.

Thank you :) Zvon Sep 15 2014 06:05 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Never, ever heard of Larry See.

Frayed Knot Sep 15 2014 06:42 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Steven Matz had a very nice set of legs behind him during his interview. Wifey Watch needs to get on that. Frayed Knot Sep 15 2014 06:44 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM I'll say this for Flores, his throws from SS are very true. He may not have the strongest arm in the world but he gets them over there and they're almost always straight as a string. Frayed Knot Sep 15 2014 06:46 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Can I help you with something Mr. Ozuna?

Zvon Sep 15 2014 07:12 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM UGH. Bullshit on the check swing w/Murph. Hey umps, YOU SUCK WORSE! I don't get much more difficult than that^. OHSHIT!!!!!!!!!!!LAGS! Well, we got de off the hook. 3-3 Edgy MD Sep 15 2014 07:13 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Bad choice by Laggy I think. But good job by Murph following up and taking second.

Edgy MD Sep 15 2014 07:27 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM A.J. Ramos, keep it moving. Too bad we gave up an out on the basepaths. Zvon Sep 15 2014 07:28 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Thank you Mr. Ramos. Now vamoose. NEXT! Zvon Sep 15 2014 07:36 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Now our pen has to be solid. And I have faith. Let Familia go two! Zvon Sep 15 2014 07:41 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Familia a little wild tonight. Don't be fuckin' up tonight Fammy. Zvon Sep 15 2014 07:43 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM I swear if we give this back I won't watch another game for the rest of the season. Well, I'll watch deGroms next start. Thing is, win or lose, his performance tonight clinches the ROY. Edgy MD Sep 15 2014 07:45 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM This is unsettling. Bour has a lot of Rusty Staub in him. Zvon Sep 15 2014 07:45 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Bases all stinkyfished. 1 out. 8th. 5-3 NY Zvon Sep 15 2014 07:47 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM 5-5. G'night folks. Cya next season. Edgy MD Sep 15 2014 07:47 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Grandy was too deep there, playing the opposite field against Hecheverria. Probably wouldn't have mattered. He's gonna be in left next year, right? Edgy MD Sep 15 2014 07:53 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Jenrry coming on. Like Gil said about Nolan, it's no big deal to bring him in with the bases loaded. He's loaded them himself often enough that he's used to it. Lefty Specialist Sep 15 2014 07:55 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Don't like bringing in Mejia in the 8th with a runner on 3rd. Prove me wrong, Jenrry. Lefty Specialist Sep 15 2014 07:56 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Well, fuck. Edgy MD Sep 15 2014 07:56 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM A lot of flares off the end of the bat this inning. Bluhb. Edgy MD Sep 15 2014 08:16 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Let's turn this 'un around. Edgy MD Sep 15 2014 08:21 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Waddaya calling, umpie? Mets Guy in Michigan Sep 15 2014 08:24 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Biggest gut-punch loss of the year. How come it seems like the Marlins always deliver the biggest gut punches? Frayed Knot Sep 15 2014 08:32 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Well that certainly sucked. For the record (like this place is a record or anything) I would have left Edgin in. He got the one righty out, why not another? I know the hit off Mejia was a bloopy P.O.S. which doesn't 'prove' it was the wrong move, I just thought it was an unnecessary one. And can someone explain to me how the Yanx/Rays have taken 3:20 (and counting) to play 8-1/2 innings of a scoreless tie ? What the hell have they been doing for the last 200 minutes? Only 10 hits and 5 walks [u:2cigfboq]combined[/u:2cigfboq]!! oe: Rays win, Rays win on a bases-loaded single in the bottom 9th. 3:30 for a 1-0 games with 11 hits total. MFS62 Sep 15 2014 09:14 PM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM Just got home, checked out the box score. Who the fuck are those guys? And why isn't Kirk starting? A few days ago there was a WSJ article* that pointed out the great winning percentage in games he has started. Ever since then, he hasn't started. And recent reports have indicated that TC is coming back? Somebody please tell me what his skills are, because reading stats isn't apparently one of them Later * http://online.wsj.com/articles/take-a-n ... 1410398247 Edgy MD Sep 16 2014 06:17 AM Re: IGT 09/15 -- MIA at NYM I'm curious about how many of those fish-hits were opposite field on sliders away --- effective pitches for deGrom, Familia, and Mejia all, but if you don't come up and in on occasion, they're gonna get those hits off the end of the bat just by protecting away. A little memo to d'Arnaud, there. Why Kirk isn't starting is a thread unto itself.
