IGT - 9/17/16 - Twins at Mets

Sep 17 2016 01:08 PM

Ervin Santana versus Seth Lugo.

Lost in the win yesterday was that the Mets have kinda stopped hitting. Even against a guy with a near 10 ERA. Task is tougher today with veteran Ervin Santana. Let's start hitting guys.

Nothing against TJ Rivera but is Terry falling in love with the him and going L/R/L/R at the expense of Kelly Johnson, a better hitter?

KJ seems to have fallen into the trap where he's been so good in the off the bench role that his manager wants to keep him there.
Not so sure that's a cause and effect assumption you want to follow too far.



Hey, check it out, a baserunner!!!

Listening a few min behind on XM due to WPIX/FIOS nonsense as per usual on a Saturday.

Bases loaded for Conforto (don't spoil it for me!)

Forced to listen to the Twinks radio team as XM is barfing on the Howie/Josh call. These guys are surprisingly pleasant for a road radio team. Most other broadcast teams are insipid but these guys are giving equal talk time to both squads and not descending into who-cares-ness.

Even more so than Jay Bruce, Conforto has been 0-2 or maybe 1-2 in seemingly every AB since about the 1st of May and the results become pretty predictable after that.

The Mets had their best chance to score in the 7th inning, as Santana suddenly couldn't locate the plate with a road map. Not surprisingly, the Mets couldn't get the hit they needed to knock him out as Conforta strikes out with the bases loaded to end the threat.

The Twins TV booth is pretty good too.
I forget the p-b-p man but Bert Blyleven is a hoot. He started a thing years ago where he 'circles' random fans with his tele-strator so, at home games, fans will bring signs to the game
saying, 'Hey Bert, Circle Me!!, and once or twice per game he'll do just that.

Yes, but that also means it took him 14 just to get the first two outs and with each of the last two hitters he faced he got to 3-2 and all those extra throws after getting ahead of the hitters, which is something that been an emerging pattern with him far too often during the second half of the season.
Not that I'm saying it's a critical flaw or anything, but it's a large contrast particularly when they come on the heels of the efficiency of most of Reed's innings.

Cards Win!

NYM & SFG tied for WC
StL 2.0 games behind both.

Pitt actually won twice today so they leapfrog the Marlins but still 5.0 games in back of NYM/SFG and 3.0 in back of Cards
Marlins 6.0 behind and drop to 2 below .500

When he reached 1 for 26 I told my wife, "That's it, I'm done with Granderson".

Of course, I've also said that I'm done with Jay Bruce and that hasn't moved the needle at all.

But, hey, MEANINGFUL SEPTEMBER BASEBALL.

Okay, the #5 hitter is unwatchable (hopes lightning strikes twice).

How about that hook after 4 2/3?

Come on, Terry. You cooked your bullpen yesterday. Let your starter go, go, go.
