IGT 09/04-Nationals at Metropolitans

d'Kong76 Sep 03 2016 10:20 PM

ESPN, 8-ish -- RHP Lopez, 2-2, 5.33 vs RHP Lugo, 2-2, 2.60

MFS62 Sep 04 2016 09:21 AM Re: IGT 09/04-Nationals at Metropolitans

I hope there is no rain delay or extra inning game tonight, with tomorrow's game in Cincy starting at 1 PM. Fuck you, ESPN (and Ichiro, too) Later

Frayed Knot Sep 04 2016 09:59 AM Re: IGT 09/04-Nationals at Metropolitans

Blame MLB more than ESPN. They either need to put restrictions on which games the network can grab for their Sunday Night showcase or they have to force Cincy to change the start time of Monday's game. Don't know anything about this Reynaldo Lopez guy who we're seeing instead of Scherzer (bet the Cards, Pirates, etc. aren't happy 'bout that!) 22 y/o, 6' 0", 185, R/R Signed by the Nats as an 18 y/o out of the DR in 2012. Progressed steadily if not spectacularly through the system. 14 starts in AA Harrisburg this year [4.13 ERA, 1.23 WHIP] then five in AAA Syracuse [3.27, 0.94], and five spot starts w/Washington [2-2; 5.33; 1.70] Started off his ML career by getting drubbed by the Dodgers back in July [6 earned in 4.2 IP] and is coming off a bad outing vs the Orioles [6 runs (4 earned) never got out of the 3rd] with three better outings in between.

Frayed Knot Sep 04 2016 10:35 AM Re: IGT 09/04-Nationals at Metropolitans

And Lopez is going up against the guy we should start call 'The Disc Jockey' because his spin rate is so high. Highest ever they say - although 'Ever' is a relative term since they've just been measuring this stuff since last season. But despite that short time frame, not only does Lugo already own the highest-spin curve yet recorded but he's got seven of the top 10, and 18 of the top 25, and 32 of the top 50, ... and all despite his own short time frame of only 34 2/3 Major League innings so far.

In Cleveland, it's fastballing Danny Salazar versus slow-in-the-head Tom Koehler. Salazar has 11 Ks through five innings, but it's still Marlins 1, Indians 0.

Blame MLB more than ESPN. They either need to put restrictions on which games the network can grab for their Sunday Night showcase or they have to force Cincy to change the start time of Monday's game. Per the CBA: ARTICLE V—Section C (9) Getaway games shall not be scheduled or rescheduled to start later than 5 P.M. if either Club is required to travel for a day game, scheduled the next day, between cities in which the in-flight time is more than 1 1/2 hours. In each season, the championship season schedule may contain six exceptions to the rule in the immediately preceding sentence provided that the traveling Club is traveling to Chicago to play the Cubs and the in-flight time does not exceed 2 1/2 hours. Flight time LGA to CVA = 2:15 on average Also (bolding mine): ARTICLE V—Section C (19) With respect to the rescheduling of any game, except for games rescheduled as split doubleheaders as set forth in Section C(1)*, any scheduling or rescheduling rule set forth in this Article V may be waived by the secret ballot vote of a majority of the Players on the Club(s) that would be in violation of the rule. Separate votes shall be required with regard to each game for which a waiver is sought. A waiver granted pursuant to this provision, as well as a waiver granted by the Association pursuant to Section C(1)*, shall not constitute a precedent with regard to future waiver requests. With respect to the rescheduling of any such game, and all games rescheduled pursuant to Section C(1)*, the Club(s) shall consult with the Association concerning the actual date and time of such rescheduled game. The Club(s) shall use best efforts to notify the Association in advance of notifying the Players on the Club(s) affected. This leads me to believe that the Mets players signed off on the quick turnaround, no? *Section C(1) are the rules for split doubleheader scheduling.

The Mets once had "The Doctor" and now it looks like they have "The Spin Doctor".

Chad Ochoseis Sep 04 2016 05:50 PM Re: IGT 09/04-Nationals at Metropolitans

The 2:15 includes taxiing time and time at the gate, and has a bit of fat in it. Actual time in flight is probably just about 90 minutes.

And the Indians, with help from Fernando Rodney walking the bases loaded, score three runs with 2 out in the bottom of the 9th to beat the Marlins 6-5 and complete the three game sweep.

Frayed Knot Sep 04 2016 07:03 PM Re: IGT 09/04-Nationals at Metropolitans

Yup. Both the Marlins and the Giants took leads into the 9th today but neither could hang on to the lead. Injuns scored three times in the 9th. Cubs tied up their game vs SFG with one in the 9th then walked it off in extras. Pirates got blown out by the Brewers today which completed the sweep! Cards won today, as did the Dodgers.

Pretty psyched to hear ESPN fillating Murphy all night.

Mets Guy in Michigan Sep 04 2016 07:19 PM Re: IGT 09/04-Nationals at Metropolitans

I saw a couple columns taking the "What if Murphy had stayed with the Mets..." theme. Who are we kidding. If Murph was with the Mets, he'd have torn his ACL in June and be out for the season. Nice catch by Cespedes.

bmfc1 Sep 04 2016 07:32 PM Re: IGT 09/04-Nationals at Metropolitans

It doesn't make his success any easier to take but Murphy cost himself a lot of money. The Mets QO was $15.8 million. He signed with WSH for 3 years at $37.5 million (and WSH only gives back-loaded contracts). With the season he is having (assuming he'd have that year with the Mets), he would have made a lot more as a free agent this winter than he did last winter.

Frayed Knot Sep 04 2016 07:41 PM Re: IGT 09/04-Nationals at Metropolitans

That was one long-ass 1st inning for just one run being scored.

ESPN does the worst job at broadcasting baseball. Between their storylines, the "K Zone", the crawl at the bottom, and their announcers never shutting up it's awful. I'd rather listen to Joe Buck feign interest in baseball or watch TBS with the box on the right side of the screen than have the Mets on ESPN. Having said that, I really hope to watch the Mets in the Wild Card game on ESPN on October 5th

And now two quick innings has Lugo's pitch count in order (58 thru 4) Meanwhile the other guy probably doesn't survive this inning if he allows another baserunner. Not that that matters as much this time of year when you've got 14 or so guys in the pen.

I hope he finds himself soon.

I'm not that down on that (Bruce out at 3rd) play. Yeah you don't want to make the last out there, but when it takes a perfect throw to get you by a hair then you're going to gain by that chance more often than not. Think about how many times when our precious few hits w/RiSP didn't even score a run.

When did Mat Latos get on this team?? (looking it up) June 29th as it turns out, either I missed that when it happened or totally forgot about it since. One of my least favorite players in MLB over the last decade or so, so now I have extra reasons to root against him. I hope Cespedes hits a liner up the middle so hard that it knocks all his tats off.

Nats had the middle of the order coming up [Werth, Murph, Harper, Rondon, and, as it turned out, Ramos]. Even with a four run lead, Terry would kick himself (and we'd join in on the kicking) if he blew that game by going to second tier relievers. Now with just one inning to go and the bottom of the order, I'd prefer not to see Familia with the quick turn-around tomorrow, but aren't going to storm the castle over it.

I really appreciate the MLB.tv sticks with the WOR radio broadcast for quite a while after the game ( nice and clear, not like my cheapo AM radio). The SNY feed they cut off before the last K in BOOKS!

We've done a little more record breaking lately. I better start taking notes.

So 97 HRs at home. Niiiiice. And Muffy with the first 16 games w/a hit vs his old team is a silly record, but it's a record. post game stuff: CitiFieldHR ?@CitiFieldHR 8m8 minutes ago Fun fact, Jay Bruce was the first to hit a home run off a splitter in Citi Field this year. Anthony DiComo ?@AnthonyDiComo 11m11 minutes ago Seth Lugo pitched through a blister tonight that has bothered him his last two starts. Obviously though, no ill effects. #Mets Anthony DiComo ?@AnthonyDiComo 7m7 minutes ago Wilmer Flores, who changed his walk-up music to the theme from "Friends," said he's seen every episode. "I just can't stop watching it."

Gelbs said during the game today that the flight from NYC to Cincy took off at 1:12am and landed at 2:33am. The Cincy International airport (which is actually in Kentucky) was voted one of the best airports in the world a few years ago. When I used to travel a lot on business, they kept telling us that on the airport TVs. It is a major hub for major airlines as well as a number of regional carriers. If the flight was that quick, it sounds like they got a good landing slot. Later

I changed planes there once. True story!
