NY Mets at Washington When: 7:05 PM ET, Thursday, September 25, 2014 Where: Nationals Park, Washington, District of Columbia SportsDirect Inc. TV: 7:05 p.m. ET, SNY (New York), MASN2 (Washington) PITCHING MATCHUP: Mets RH Zack Wheeler (11-10, 3.49 ERA) vs. Nationals LH Gio Gonzalez (9-10, 3.74) Wheeler has struggled to the tune of a 1-3 record with a 5.96 ERA against the Nationals this season, allowing 28 hits and 10 walks in 22 2/3 innings. Washington pounded him for six runs - including a two-run homer by Bryce Harper - in four-plus innings on Sept. 13. Wheeler bounced back to yield five hits over six scoreless innings in Friday's outing against Atlanta. Gonzalez is just 1-3 with a 5.40 ERA against the Mets this season compared to 8-7 with a 3.46 ERA against every other team in baseball. He limited Miami to two runs over seven innings his last time out and did not allow a home run for the third straight start. Perhaps most important for Gonzalez is the fact that he has walked a total of one hitter in his last three outings after issuing 14 walks in his previous six starts. WALK-OFFS: 1. Gonzalez needs one more victory to reach double digits for the fifth straight season.

Hey, it's time for another Mets game already. This is a beautiful day. I predict two DooBoo's in the nightcap.

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 05:06 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

With Gio going, that would be something.

Zvon Sep 25 2014 05:12 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

With Gio going, that would be something. Yikes. Note to self: check opposing pitcher before prediction.

Zvon Sep 25 2014 05:13 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

If any Mets fans are off watching the Yankees game (for whatever reason), I curse you.

Zvon Sep 25 2014 05:19 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

*sob. Tejada sucks :(

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 05:19 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Tejada was expecting Lagares perhaps?

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 05:32 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Whiffy Mets. Howie just cut to a break by " the WFAN Radio Ne... that's WOR Radio Network."

Zvon Sep 25 2014 05:35 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Of course Geo pitches like a HoF'r against us. Of course he does.

Zvon Sep 25 2014 06:13 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

ZEVON! Those men have good taste.

Zvon Sep 25 2014 06:17 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

I would get in trouble if I was a MLB player these days. I'd have to use my bat and play some air guitar as I jam my way up to the plate during my walk up music.

Zvon Sep 25 2014 06:22 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Shitty cheap runs. 2-0 Men in red

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 06:23 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

That stupid Wheeler breakdown inning.

Frayed Knot Sep 25 2014 06:30 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Man he's tough to watch at times. They haven't hit a ball hard all inning but this doing is still largely his fault.

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 06:33 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Slower when he gets sloppy too. Gets the pitcher. Rendon with the bases jammed, now.

Frayed Knot Sep 25 2014 06:37 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

What was that, a 75 pitch inning? ,,, and now I foresee about a 9 pitch inning coming back and Wheeler's going to be right back out there.

Zvon Sep 25 2014 06:47 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

98 pitches in the 5th. Only 4 hits. 3 runs! And a walk to start the 5th. WhatRwegonnaDOwWheeler?

d'Kong76 Sep 25 2014 06:50 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Did the Mets get up in the fifth? I blinked.

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 06:57 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Yeah, it hap'd.

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 07:02 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Dang it, Gio.

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 07:10 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

The new, economical Daisuke.

Zvon Sep 25 2014 07:17 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Of course Geo gets his career high in Ks against us. Of course he does! *slaps forhead

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 07:58 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Two shmits through eight for the Mets.

Zvon Sep 25 2014 08:22 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

Meh, I'm never good with the predictin'. Cept for Ike Davis HUGE post season HR coming soon.

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 08:30 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

What a nadir of a night.

Edgy MD Sep 25 2014 08:31 PM Re: IGT 09/25 -- Mets at Gnats -- Game 2

I'll say it. At least Harvey's happy.
