Marquez is a 22 y/o rookie RH'er who's made 17 starts so far this year and reportedly throws hard. That's all I got. Just six more games out of the eastern time zone after this one: three in Houston Sept 1-3 (8:00, 7:00, 2:00) and three in Chicago Sept 12-14 (all 8:00). The only other "late" game from here on out is this Sunday where we're shunted off to ESPN-land vs the Dodgers.

Methinks he intends to make a joke about how overmatched the Mets will be compared to the evening's star attractions.

I wouldn't be surprised if Nimmo starts getting starts only once the Mets aren't playing contenders.

Let's GO Mets!

This was his chance to put on a show for Moms and Pops like Conforto did in Seattle!! He had EXTRA MOTIVATION!! What's the use?!! Can I somehow post loud enough for Terry to hear me?!! I don't THINK I CAN!!

at work so just checking in occasionally, but this is a very Coors game.

We're setting ourselves up for another walk-off loss. We're 4-7 in walk-offs this year.

d'Kong76 Aug 03 2017 10:01 PM Re: IGT 08/03 Mets at Rockies - Afternoon Flippy Floppy

4-4 bottom of the 9th. Got that sinking-coors-vibe thing going.

Chad Ochoseis Aug 03 2017 10:14 PM Re: IGT 08/03 Mets at Rockies - Afternoon Flippy Floppy

My goodness, that was awful.

d'Kong76 Aug 03 2017 10:14 PM Re: IGT 08/03 Mets at Rockies - Afternoon Flippy Floppy

Oops, that was a little embarrassing for Hansel.

Frayed Knot Aug 03 2017 10:45 PM Re: IGT 08/03 Mets at Rockies - Afternoon Flippy Floppy

Just when you thought is was safe to go back to the Robles. He throws an 8-pitch 1-2-3 8th ... but then in the 9th he hits the leadoff hitter after getting up 2 strikes, then, following a Sac Bunt and IW, walks each of the next two with the final one after also getting the first two strikes. The fact that the final pitch of the game hit the Durham Bull mascot didn't help matters either.

The radio said that Robles said he felt numbness in his fingers. So why did he keep pitching?

Ashie62 Aug 04 2017 12:05 AM Re: IGT 08/03 Mets at Rockies - Afternoon Flippy Floppy

A bases loaded walk. ouch.

Liked the first movie.

Centerfield Aug 04 2017 04:06 AM Re: IGT 08/03 Mets at Rockies - Afternoon Flippy Floppy

Is numbness contagious? He must have sat between Familia and Harvey.

Fman99 Aug 04 2017 11:31 AM Re: IGT 08/03 Mets at Rockies - Afternoon Flippy Floppy

I watched it on the replay. Which means I was sad, only, way later in the day.
