IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

d'Kong76 Apr 25 2016 09:50 AM

Cincinnati at NY Mets When: 7:10 PM ET, Monday, April 25, 2016 Where: Citi Field, New York City, New York SportsDirect Inc. After limping out of the gate with five losses in their first seven games, the New York Mets have righted the ship by winning eight of their last 10 contests. The Mets hope their good fortune travels with them back to Queens on Monday when they open a nine-game homestand with the first of three contests versus the Cincinnati Reds. New York launched 23 homers through the initial eight outings of its nine-game road trip before manufacturing its offense in Sunday's 3-2 victory to complete a sweep of Atlanta. Michael Conforto drove in a pair of runs in the finale to cap a strong series (4-for-11) for the Mets, who batted .293 with 25 doubles during their nine-game road trip. While New York is ascending, Cincinnati has cooled off considerably from its hot start by dropping nine of its last 13 - including three of four to the Chicago Cubs. Eugenio Suarez had one of the Reds' three hits in a 9-0 shellacking on Sunday to improve to 5-for-12 in the last three games, but is just 1-for-6 in his career versus Monday starter Noah Syndergaard. TV: 7:10 p.m. ET, FSN Ohio (Cincinnati), SNY (New York) PITCHING MATCHUP: Reds RH Raisel Iglesias (1-1, 3.09 ERA) vs. Mets RH Noah Syndergaard (2-0, 0.90) Iglesias authored arguably his best start in 2016 on Wednesday, when he allowed two runs and recorded season highs in both strikeouts (eight) and innings (6 2/3) before seeing the bullpen fail to close the door in a no-decision versus Colorado. The 26-year-old Cuban has kept the ball in the park in two of his four starts this season. Iglesias, who got the call on opening day, will be make his 21st start overall and first in his career versus New York. Syndergaard has bolted out of the blocks to start the season, allowing just two runs on 15 hits while striking out 29 in 20 innings. The 23-year-old dominated Philadelphia last Monday, permitting just one run on five hits in seven frames and earned two extra days' rest as a reward. Syndergaard has handcuffed Cincinnati in both career outings, striking out 11 over 7 2/3 innings in his last meeting to improve to 2-0 with a 1.72 ERA while limiting the Reds to a .179 batting average. WALK-OFFS: 1. New York RF Curtis Granderson is 9-for-21 with three Kabooms!, seven RBIs and as many runs scored during his five-game hitting streak, but is just 2-for-23 (.087) at home this season. 2. Cincinnati SS Zack Cozart has hit safely in 12 of his 13 contests this season. 3. New York SS Asdrubal Cabrera is 6-for-17 with a homer, three RBIs and as many runs scored during his four-game hitting streak.

Yee hah! Noah and Cincy throws a righty who will be squashed.

CONFORTOBOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ashie62 Apr 25 2016 06:40 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

The kid can't be stopped!!

Zvon Apr 25 2016 06:47 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Ha! Votto sucks. That moves looks very silly when you don't even get leather on it.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 07:04 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Ugh, that's how you get to Thor. Bunt, steal, tag. 1-1 Mets.

Lefty Specialist Apr 25 2016 07:06 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Reds score a junk run. Real men score by the home run.

Lefty Specialist Apr 25 2016 07:08 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Lucas Duda, Real Man.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 07:17 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

I was afk--don't know what happened yet.

Sheesh. Poor Phillips. One of the coolest guys in the league, year-in and year-out.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 07:22 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Conforto....nice, 2-fer2.......DUDA!!!!!! 3-1 Mets. Ouch. Hope Phillips is okay.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 07:25 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Conforto is a righty in the field but he moves like a lefty.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 07:27 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

A gravy train and a sleigh ride. Okay.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 07:43 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Bunt that Hamilton.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 07:46 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Whoa. Wright bare hands a routine grounder. I wonder if that took a bad hop.

Edgy MD Apr 25 2016 07:50 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

It makes little sense that that is a double. The guy was there and it went through his glove.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 07:52 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Ha! Suarez sucks. But I must thank him for sucking that pop into a Conforto double. 3 fer 3....could he get the cyc...I won't say it.

Edgy MD Apr 25 2016 07:56 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Yay! X-rays negative on Brandon Phillips.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 08:00 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

This Iglesias guy has some pretty decent stuff. Mets made him throw a lot of pitches though. Almost 100 after 5. Walks Cabrera. I'd stick a fork in him. 3-1 Mets

Edgy MD Apr 25 2016 08:15 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Wow. Cyndi has been pitching out of trubbs all night. One more big one to get.

Edgy MD Apr 25 2016 08:16 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Gosh, Schebler didn't come close.

Lefty Specialist Apr 25 2016 08:17 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Syndergaard es muy macho.

...he bats.

Lefty Specialist Apr 25 2016 08:24 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Short leash, Terry.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 08:30 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Is that the bump? That's the cheapest single you will ever see. No Walker, don't try and kick it. Oy, OH, bad pick off by Thor. Man on 2nd.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 08:34 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Shit. Cozart with a nicely struck single. 3-2 and Collins puts the hammer down.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 08:39 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Bastardo with a 4 pitch walk and Votto up w/2 on. Gulp. I think Bastardo's ass is as big as any Kardashian.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 08:42 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Thank you Votto. I do NOT want to see Noah not get this win. Should I just turn it off?

Zvon Apr 25 2016 08:43 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

fuck

Lefty Specialist Apr 25 2016 08:44 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Well, that was not optimal.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 08:49 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

VERRETT! Good job. 3-3 Mets but no win for Thor so I'm pissed. lil bit.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 08:57 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

I'm not as pissed.

Frayed Knot Apr 25 2016 08:58 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Murphy may be hitting .400 (or thereabouts) but he ain't got no 8 homers!

Lefty Specialist Apr 25 2016 08:59 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Neil Walker, Real Man.

Chad Ochoseis Apr 25 2016 08:59 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Kaboom? KABOOM!!!! .400 or not, I'm not missing Murphy that much.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 09:00 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

8 in April. From 2nd base. Amazin'.

Fman99 Apr 25 2016 09:01 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Some nice kaboomage by Walker Duda and Conforto tonight.

Zvon Apr 25 2016 09:10 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

Ohhhhhhhh, that ump sucks (called 3rd on Plawecki).

Fman99 Apr 25 2016 09:22 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

The Mets won! I was happy!

Zvon Apr 25 2016 09:24 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

The difference between Familia and Benitez is that 3-2 pitch to Holt. GJ!

Rockin' Doc Apr 25 2016 09:37 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

I'm kinda diggin' Walker. He obviously won't stay this hot all season, but he is off to a great start for the Mets.

MFS62 Apr 25 2016 10:40 PM Re: IGT 04/25 - Reds @ Mets

(Channeling John Sterling) "Neil nails another". Daniel who? Later
