It's not just being 6 games back of WSH, it's being ahead of 3 of these 4 teams: LAD, MIA, STL, PIT. http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/standings/wildcard.jsp

Lefty Specialist Jul 15 2016 06:46 AM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

STL plays the Fish and PIT plays the Nats this weekend. So it'll be an interesting couple of days.

d'Kong76 Jul 15 2016 08:44 AM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

It's not just being 6 games back of WSH, it's being ahead of 3 of these 4 teams: LAD, MIA, STL, PIT Of course, but the quest should be the division title.

Agreed. I don't even look at those standings before the break. Usually not until the dog days settle in early August.

bmfc1 Jul 15 2016 09:43 AM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

I haven't given up on the NL East but gotta keep both eyes open. Either way, win tonight.

Everyone knew Yo was hurt, why didn't they just DL him? Tonight he "can't function on the base-paths." Splendid.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 06:19 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Bart only needs 4 pitches to get thru the 1st. That's not a typo. [bigpurple:1am3zvty]4[/bigpurple:1am3zvty]

11 pitches for the 2nd. I won't get into how many pitches the Mets aren't looking at. In the 2nd New York came up and said, you wanna hit first pitch Philly? We can hit first pitch too! [bigpurple:1jvcvl79]LAGARESLONGSHOT![/bigpurple:1jvcvl79] First pitch. Ha. 1-0 Mets oe-no h!

Zvon Jul 15 2016 06:34 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

415 ft! (id have to check that-tho it was a bomb off the bat), exit vol, 102mph.

Edgy MD Jul 15 2016 06:47 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

I missed you, baseball. Did you miss me?

Edgy MD Jul 15 2016 06:51 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Loney runs like a tight end. The tight end you use on running downs, not the receiving guy.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 07:20 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Phils get their first hit in the 5th. A cheap single.

Edgy MD Jul 15 2016 07:30 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Thanks for that call, Mr. Ump. Thanks for the assist, Mr. d'Arnaud.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 07:43 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

4-0, ha, I stepped off. OOOO, Walker. If he can match his 1st half in homers will we forgive him for batting .250?

Zvon Jul 15 2016 07:46 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Just made my 1st kaBOOM in a coons age. I won't say who but I'll say he hasn't hit one tonight. Yet. I don't have a WalkerBOOM? Oy.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 07:55 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Egh. Errors kill. Great play to start by Loney, but the toss was just a bit high. Colon was focused on the base and it sailed by his glove. Then a Bourjos triple. Literally. 4-1 NY. Wow, don't see that much. Ball hit Bourjos down the line, but he was standing foul. Ball kicked to fair territory. Just a foul ball. EEk. Franco generates a run. 4-2 NY.

Edgy MD Jul 15 2016 07:55 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

I approve of Terry holding Colón out of the All Star Game.

Edgy MD Jul 15 2016 08:00 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Although... now the tying run is on.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 08:07 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Double switching out Nimmo w/De Aza? And Colons spot is 2nd nxt inning? And don't tell me he would have pinch hit De Useless. I don't want to hear that. Yikes, I'm already all over De Aza, 1st game back. Maybe he comes back a new man after the break. I might be pissed because the kaBOOM I just made was for Nimmo.

bmfc1 Jul 15 2016 08:11 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Double switches in the 6th inning are too early but Terry's done them in the 5th.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 08:11 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

GJ Robles. I can't believe we let them get back in this. Colon was cruisin' & then ~~~~~~~ 4-3

Edgy MD Jul 15 2016 08:11 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

I think he made the right move.

Frayed Knot Jul 15 2016 08:12 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

But with only one out to get, the double switch allows Robles to pitch the next inning. (responding to the anti-DS crowd)

Frayed Knot Jul 15 2016 08:14 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Those last two innings really slammed the brakes on this game. The first four innings flew by in less than an hour, then the 5th & 6th alone took more than that.

He's really crowding the plate tonight. And looks very aggressive.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 08:17 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

eh, a productive out. Deep sac fly to the track in right. That gets 1 foot out of the doghouse.

Edgy MD Jul 15 2016 08:18 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Good job, De Aza.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 08:20 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

SAFE! NICE. Lags showing some speed. Scores on a FC to short.

Edgy MD Jul 15 2016 08:20 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Reyes got a shout of "Wife beater!" just before that RBI grounder.

Frayed Knot Jul 15 2016 08:20 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Good send with one out. You hold there with none, but a good, aggressive play in that case.

Edgy MD Jul 15 2016 08:24 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Old Reyes would have scored on that double. Of course, had that been caught, Old Reyes might have gotten doubled off. Anyhow ... we hit doubles?

Lefty Specialist Jul 15 2016 08:26 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Hey, Granderson failed with RISP. That's unusual. Not.

cooby Jul 15 2016 08:27 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

finally

Frayed Knot Jul 15 2016 08:31 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

I see our RiSP skills didn't erode over the break; they started at nothing and stayed there. The only hit /wRiSP tonight is Walker's HR. Even the run-scoring bouncer isn't a hit.

Asche was thinking the same thing. Awesome. Goodwin walked a foul ball to a kid in the stands so no jerkoff idiot could jump up and cut off his throw. Took the time to walk up and put it right in the kids glove. OE: I almost did that right.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 08:35 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

WTF? I can't even take a leak? Saw the end of the replay and Mets were on the ground. Fargin Ryan.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 08:51 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Great job Blevins. Reed too. Flores is in @2nd., batting 7th. And he's up. A lot of trade talk around Flores during the break. We won't get anything decent for him, even with this hot streak, IMO. Ya gotta be a New Yorker to love Wilmer. And ya gotta beeleeve. Popped out. Took some hefty swings tho.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 08:54 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, what a play by Reyes. Wow.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 09:09 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

DeAza is very good at taking a base on a passed ball. I'll give him that.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 09:11 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Fammy FTW. Philly throats say he's due to blow one. Fuck you Mac.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 09:17 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back

Familia pitches seem to display some kind of anti-bat flubberism. They swing the bat where the ball is but then the balls just not there. It goes around the bat.

Zvon Jul 15 2016 09:18 PM Re: IGT 07/15 - Mets at Phillies - 6 Games Back
