Juan Lagares has been activated off the DL to replace the hole left by the Bruce trade.

Obi Juan Lagares is our only hope....

You wanted to see Dominic Smith tonight? Sandy doesn't give a rat's ass what you want.

So once again a 2B is at 3B, a SS is at 2B and a DH is at 1B.

I have a hard time seeing every move the Mets make as a reflection of how evil Sandy Alderson is.

Way to go, 2B at 3B, and DH at 1B! Let's get the SS at 2B into the act!

I'm going with Hank Aaron.

Finally got around to this and it's the seventh (!). On to pitch for the Phils is rookie/minor Impressionist Jesen Thierien.

That's an interesting question. I'm going to pick a random Phillies home run hitter and say Ryan Howard.

Close.

Man, Céspedes is a complete guess-hitter now, isn't he?

Re: IGT 08/10 - Mets at Phils - And on a Good Day... (l)

Conforto, who is looking like a hitter-hitter, goes KABOOM! down the right field line for three runs.

This is maybe what happens when you put your best hitter in the middle of your lineup.

Well, liner off the pitching arm for deGrom. That could be ... in no way good.

Must be Mike Schmitt.

Jim Thome was your answer.
Lots of HRs and lots of time as a Phillie -- should have been the obvious guess.

Yes. And it sometimes seems like he's a guess-fielder, too. It's sad.

Hey, like I said earlier, ~1/3 of the remaining schedule is against the Phils and Reds (combined .396 winning pct)
