NY Mets at Cleveland When: 4:10 PM ET, Saturday, April 16, 2016 Where: Progressive Field, Cleveland, Ohio SportsDirect Inc. The New York Mets look to build off a rare offensive outburst this season when they visit the Cleveland Indians for the middle contest of a three-game set on Saturday. The Mets came into Friday’s series opener batting a league-worst .194 and standing 29th in the majors in runs scored before blasting four homers among 14 hits and holding on for a 6-5 victory. Slugger Yoenis Cespedes led the hit brigade for New York with a single, a double and a homer to extend his hitting streak against the Indians to nine games. Scheduled starter Matt Harvey will try to gain his first victory of the season and get the Mets back to .500 when he faces a Cleveland squad which also posted 14 hits on Friday. The Indians, who have split eight games to start the campaign, left 13 on base in the series opener – including two when Jeurys Familia retired the final batter. Cleveland’s Jason Kipnis had three hits Friday and is 9-for-25 since going 0-for-4 in the first game of the season. TV: 4:10 p.m. ET, WPIX (New York), SportsTime Ohio (Cleveland) PITCHING MATCHUP: Mets RH Matt Harvey (0-2, 4.63 ERA) vs. Indians RH Josh Tomlin (2015: 7-2, 3.02) Harvey has lost three straight regular-season starts dating back to last season, and has been ordinary in his first two turns of 2016. The 27-year-old Connecticut stud muffin allowed three runs and six hits in six innings last time out against Philadelphia and owns just five strikeouts in 11 2/3 frames overall. Juan Uribe, who spent half of last season with the Mets, is 2-for-6 in his career against Harvey. Tomlin makes his first appearance of the season as the team’s fifth starter after a solid 2015 campaign which included a 4-1 record and 2.65 ERA at home. The 31-year-old control pitcher struck out 57 in 65 2/3 innings last season with just eight walks and limited left-handed batters to a .156 average. Alejandro De Aza is 3-for-11 with a homer against Tomlin, who has never faced the Mets. WALK-OFFS: 1. De Aza registered his first three hits for his new team, including a homer on Friday. 2. Cleveland 1B-DH Carlos Santana boasts eight RBIs in the first eight contests of the season after hitting a two-run blast in the series opener. 3. Mets RHP Jacob deGrom (lat muscle) is expected to throw again this weekend and if everything goes well he could make his next start Tuesday at Philadelphia.

Not just perfect thru 4 for Harvey, but on only 38 pitches. That's like 2-1/2 innings worth of normal work. Mucho efficientio!!

Wheels off.

Shitburger.

38 pitches to get the first 12 outs, then 48 more to get the next 5 -- and those pitches came with 6 hits (2 XB), 3 walks, 2 SBs, 1 WP, and 5 runs mixed in. Meanwhile, NYM bats are sticking to their 1 hit/inning quota (best to avoid those hits w/RiSP that way) and have the requisite runner thrown out on the base paths already.

Once upon a time there used to be an event called "Harvey day"

Ashie62 Apr 16 2016 05:23 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

I'm worried.We stink.

Edgy MD Apr 16 2016 05:34 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

I don't stink. Mets don't stink. Not in the eighth inning, they don't.

Cespa-bomb!!!

Yo Yo.

Kapowie Time.

Walker-bomb!!!!

Chad Ochoseis Apr 16 2016 05:39 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

WALKER! And as a bonus, I'm watching Michigan take a picture of a human hot dog.

Frayed Knot Apr 16 2016 05:39 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

Damn, they've erased the Harvey deficit, now they just have to make up the Montero gap.

Ashie62 Apr 16 2016 05:43 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

Neil Walker! I guess I am guilty of calling a premature stinking.

Edgy MD Apr 16 2016 05:51 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

Well, I get the willies whenever I see the chrome insignia. Chrome insignia + Matt Harvey = stinky, often enough.

Edgy MD Apr 16 2016 05:52 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

Cabrera seems to be from the jumpy-throwy school of thought. Blows the transfer with too many moving parts.

Edgy MD Apr 16 2016 05:53 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

Negatory x-rays on d'Arnie. No doubt that 'Wecky starts tomorrow, though.

Edgy MD Apr 16 2016 05:57 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

OK, let's finish the comeback.

Edgy MD Apr 16 2016 06:00 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

Alejandro, thou art the tying run.

Edgy MD Apr 16 2016 06:04 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

OK, Wrightie. All you. That's OK.

Ashie62 Apr 16 2016 06:08 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

Have a good night.

Frayed Knot Apr 16 2016 06:25 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

Not after that game I won't

Edgy MD Apr 16 2016 07:10 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

Matt Harvey is ... a) fine. b) fine but not executing. c) hurt. d) feeling the effects of his lifestyle, and learning humility the hard way, like that guy in that movie.

And it was very nice to catch up with Chad -- only the second member of the Pool that I've met in person. Looking forward to Milwaukee and Detroit!

d'Kong76 Apr 16 2016 08:46 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

b) fine but not executing - He's definitely not terribly explosive yet this year. I only saw good-Harv this afternoon and missed out on post no-hit- perfecto Harv. I can't help but think something's going to happen with him, and it's not going to be nice ending to his story... I hope I'm wrong.

Edgy MD Apr 16 2016 09:08 PM Re: IGT 4/16 Mets v Tribe 4:10 Bring it Harvey!

Like that guy in that movie. The other guy. In that other movie.

And that movie was Splash! He's dating a mermaid.
