IGT 04/21 - WAS at NYM - Just win, that's all I got...

Washington at NY Mets
When: 7:10 PM ET, Friday, April 21, 2017
Where: Citi Field, New York City, New York
By SportsDirect Inc.

Ryan Zimmerman and Bryce Harper are flexing their muscles and the Washington Nationals are in the early stages of kicking sand in the face of their division rivals heading into Friday's opener of a three-game series versus the host New York Mets. Zimmerman, who has hit safely in 12 of 15 contests, launched a grand slam on Wednesday and went deep the following day as Washington won its fourth straight and seventh in nine games with a 3-2 victory over Atlanta.

Harper isn't being left out of the fun as the 2015 National League MVP recorded a pair of two-homer, five-RBIs contests in a three-game stretch before adding a single in the finale versus the Braves. Harper and Zimmerman have enjoyed success versus Friday starter Jacob deGrom, with the former going 7-for-18 with a solo homer while the latter also went deep among his three hits in eight career at-bats. While NL East-leading Washington has collected eight of its 10 victories against division foes, New York has answered a five-game winning streak by dropping five of its last six - including two of three to struggling Philadelphia. Injuries are also mounting for the undermanned Mets, with Yoenis Cespedes expected to undergo an MRI on Friday after exiting the series finale versus the Phillies with a left hamstring cramp.

TV: 7:10 p.m. ET, MLB Network, MASN (Washington), SNY (New York)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Nationals RH Tanner Roark (2-0, 3.50 ERA) vs. Mets RH Jacob deGrom (0-0, 1.89)

Roark did his best to help his cause with a double highlighting his own two-hit performance on Saturday, but settled for a no-decision despite allowing just two runs on four hits in seven innings against Philadelphia. The 30-year-old has kept the ball in the park in all three outings this season and did not walk a batter for the second straight trip to the mound. Roark owns a 3-1 career mark with a 2.08 ERA at Citi Field and has kept red-hot Jay Bruce in check regardless of venue, with the slugger batting just .091 in 11 at-bats.

A career high-tying 13-strikeout performance by deGrom went by the boards on Saturday as the bullpen blew the lead and left the 28-year-old with a no-decision against Miami. DeGrom surrendered a pair of solo homers among his four hits over seven innings before departing. While the right-hander has endured struggles against Harper and Zimmerman, deGrom has gotten the better of Jayson Werth (1-for-12, three strikeouts).

WALK-OFFS:
1. New York RF Curtis Granderson is 0-for-15 in his last four games and just 8-for-56 this season.
2. Washington 2B Daniel Murphy (leg), a former Met, is questionable for the series opener after being scratched from Thursday's lineup while SS Trea Turner (hamstring) is expected to be activated from the disabled list Friday.
3. In addition to Cespedes, New York also has 1B Lucas Duda (elbow), C Travis d'Arnaud (right wrist contusion) and INF Wilmer Flores (infection) among its walking wounded.

Remember: the Nationals are a bunch of bastards, they probably voted for Trump and support Le Pen in France. Dusty Baker is so dumb... he makes Terry look like a great in-game strategist. Their mascot is an effeminate owl, who does that? Tonight's game is on MLBN but blacked out in DC which means mute or using the Hola! app to fool my computer into thinking that I'm elsewhere--anything to avoid listening to Dumb and Dumber, the MASN TV announcers. Their fans know nothing about baseball and I'm having lunch with 2 of them on Sunday so the pressure is on. In sum: F THE NATS, LETS GO METS!

No accounts?! Harvey hits a dude in the helmet. Bryce Harper, who has never touched him, hits a two-run homer. Conforto answers with a solo shot of his own to lead off for the Mets just as I'm posting our horrible leadoff numbers.

Rivera gets Wilmer Difo on a caught stealing. There's only room for ONE Wilmer in this town, Buddy, and HE'S got a staph infection!

Harvey strikes out Muh, and you can feel the momentum shifting.

Harvey just made a bad location pitch to Harper.
Other than that he's been fine except that he's headed for pitch-count prison pretty soon as he's been well over the 15/per threshold since the 1st inning.
By comparison, Roark's thrown about half as many.

I'd guess that too, but I just checked and there are 44 qualifying guys who have seen fewer pitches/plate appearance. So if he leads the league in one-pitch appearances, he must have a few nine-pitch trips to make up for it.

Gah! Extras.

MLBtv had me blocked for the Phils, Nats, Orioles, and Pirates. The only one that was really in my blackout zone was Philly, so I wrote to them and complained. They agreed, apologized, and now only the Phils are blocked.

Giolito, Lopez... and the third guy in the Eaton trade is no slouch, either. Dane Dunning was one of their first-rounders, and he's got three electric starts and a ridiculous 26-to-1 K/BB ratio under his belt to start the season.

If Eaton doesn't end up putting up All-Star numbers, this might look like the Dickey trade in a couple of seasons.
