Steven Matz vs Matt Wisler who is, if you believe his stats, not good at pitching.

GAME: New York Mets (79-61) at Atlanta Braves (56-85)

the 9/11 cap discussion is always good for some outrage.

I think the caps have a small and simple flag on the side. That will get the Unitwatch guys all upset, but I don't mind them.

Changes from last night: - Regular 2B Jace Peterson sits because he's obviously fraidy-scared of LHPs. Daniel Castro is a 22 y/o rookie out of Mexico w/43 ML ABs to date. - Adonis Garcia PH'd last night after most of us were no longer paying close attention. He's a 30 y/o Cuban who was signed by the Yanx 3 years ago then released this April before ever reaching the bigs. The Braves picked up off the scrap heap then called him up in mid-season. Looks to have decent power but there are home-bound fat people you read about every once in a while who walk more than he does. - Bethancourt in for Piersynzky. Supposedly better defensively but they've been disappointed with him all around this year.

I think they should wear the first responder hats during the game. It's not bogus outrage at all. It is actual outrage. I think the Mets (the organization, management, the players, everyone) should tell anyone that tells them not to wear the hats to fuck off. It disappoints me that they don't. You don't have to agree. It's a matter of opinion. But my thoughts are not bogus, they are not driven by fashion, or even have much to do with baseball.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Sep 11 2015 02:12 PM Re: IGT 9/11 Mets vs Braves and Matt vs Matz |
Muffy hasn't had a hit since coming back I don't think. Maybe he shouldn't be 3rd in the order.

Oh for his last 14 He'll always go outside the strike zone as we all know, but he's being doing more of it lately particularly on inside stuff that he can't possibly keep fair even when he does catch up to it.
|
Edgy MD Sep 11 2015 02:38 PM Re: IGT 9/11 Mets vs Braves and Matt vs Matz |
He's also Muffy. And he has a way of hitting prolifically just when I think he's not a good bet to hit prolifically any more.

Braves announcers said there was some controversy in New York when the Mets gave number 32 to Steven Matz. It was apparently too much pressure to put on a left-handed Jewish pitcher.
|
themetfairy Sep 11 2015 06:08 PM Re: IGT 9/11 Mets vs Braves and Matt vs Matz |
He's not Jewish.

First time I ever saw the batter ask for time, the catcher ask for time, and the pitcher ask for time consecutively.

Geez. You wonder what it was about his 5.8 hits/9 w/Oakland this season and his sub-3.00 ERA those fans found so annoying. OK, he walked too many (4.9/9) but still ... I suspect part of the problem is that Oakland lost so many close games early in the season that one could convince themselves that every run allowed, especially late, was a HUGE run that decided a game and therefore was unforgivable.
