I haven't started an IGT all year, so perhaps this will bring some luck!

FFF up. I made that sign.

Good first frame for Gsellman aside from that double. Saw him K FFF and that was a nice pitch. I like this Gsellman guy.
|
Zvon Sep 20 2016 11:54 PM Re: IGT -- Sept. 20, 2016 -- Bouncing back against the Brave |
So Gsellman can't swing a bat cause he has a bum shoulder. So he will always be bunting.

What he's given them while hurt has been remarkable, but with that grimace on his face, he looks about 70. I suspect he isn't finishing this game.

Two singles to start the 6th. He may have hit that wall Gary is talking about. And gary's right about that too. Shud have had someone up for FFF.

The same draft actually in 2011. Gsellman was the 13th round choice from a Los Angeles HS; Lugo the 34th rounder out of Centenary College in Louisiana. And, yes, I know you weren't searching for a literal answer to that question, but I figured I'd give you one anyway.

It's very possible that we can wake up tomorrow with the Mets in a three-way tie for the wild card, with the Marlins 3 games out and the Pirates 3.5 games out.

Getting more like '73 everyday. Worse, actually. Instead of injured players returning for the stretch run we have them dropping like flies. 3 run bomb by Garcia. Tsk tsk.

This is now 18 runs scored in the last 8 games (or not quite 8 at this point).

If you're asking if I think I'm riding him too hard, no. It was a tough play, no doubt, but he should have zipped right back to the track, not looked up at the ball every step. Grandys a better fielder than that so maybe there are other variables I am not aware of. Is his knee hurting too?
|
d'Kong76 Sep 21 2016 01:56 AM Re: IGT -- Sept. 20, 2016 -- Bouncing back against the Brave |
Just asking, saw the play once and thought he didn't look sand-crab-esque.

Fman99 Sep 21 2016 02:08 AM Re: IGT -- Sept. 20, 2016 -- Bouncing back against the Brave |
Big hit for Grandy. Is he allowed to hit with guys on base? I thought there was a bylaw or something.

|
Chad Ochoseis Sep 21 2016 02:15 AM Re: IGT -- Sept. 20, 2016 -- Bouncing back against the Brave |
Out of the frying pan, into the soup. I'd bat Bruce here. Bruce in a slump isn't much worse than Campbell playing like Campbell.

Wow. You know you have hit rock bottom when you are lifted so Eric Campbell (and his .159 BA) can hit for you. I guess Collins is beyond trying to spare Bruce's mental health.

A bloop that should have been caught, followed by two 3-pitch Ks then a ground-out against the middle of the Braves lineup.

Deserved that L. Crowd was dead. Blevins screwed up, so did Bruce/Grandy, so did Cespy, so did former Met Travis d'Arnaud. Gsellman being unable to hit didn't help. Tony Randazzo didn't help.

You were at the game tonight? How big was the crowd? And by that I mean head-count, not the fantasy island numbers the Mets put out. Because the crowd looked small on the TV and what with the Mets being in a pennant race and all, I was wondering about the crowd size and why it looked so small. Also, you sure do read a lot of rock and roll books.

I was there as well (as was, not far from me, D.J. Short; we could have recreated Word Books magic). They said 30,000. It wasn't actually far off from that. Place filled in as the night went on. There were some college groups that took up seats. And there were gnats circling the right field promenade, though I don't think they count in the attendance. There was a nice "LGM!" refrain heading down the steps after the loss, which was a first in my recollection. Then again, there was the pronouncement in the postgame men's room line that "Cespedes has had a shit year." Yeah, based on his most recent at-bat, absolutely. Not an inspiring affair, but PH'ing for Bruce almost made it a moral victory.

For all the motherloving lefty-righty bullshit he buys into... he misses the two-foot-putt of bullpen decisions. Blevins against ANY righty is trouble. Blevins against a LEFTY KILLER? FFS, White Jerry, if you're going to overmanage...

I guess the point of using Bevvy was to get Inciarte out and when he failed at that he had no choice but to pitch to Garcia. It was the least surprising result.
