1:10 start, on SNY. Going to try and pull down the stream since I'm working from home today.

WHAT DO WE DO WITH ALL THESE PRODUCTIVE OUTFIELDERS.

Travvy with an end-of-the-bat double down the RF line off a long, loopy swing.

Does that beard make Guillorme look 40 pounds heavier or is it me...

Centerfield Mar 05 2018 06:31 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

How does Harv look guys? It occurs to me he was mid 90's last fall, and he still stunk. More life on his pitches? Secondary stuff have any bite?

A Boy Named Seo Mar 05 2018 06:41 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

I've seen fastballs at 93, 94 and he just floated a slider at 86. Couple hard hit balls, in the 2nd, one a double, one a line out to right. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Edit: got a nice swinging K on some 80 MPH pitch to end the 2nd.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Mar 05 2018 06:43 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

Looks a little CAHNfident this year vs. last to me, that's encouraging. That said I put my doubts on hold early last year as well when he got off to a pretty good start but when he stopped trying the Mets cratered with him.

A Boy Named Seo Mar 05 2018 06:52 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

Zeile seems pretty alright by me. Decent insights and I like that he's not trying to be funny at all. Harv doesn't seem to be lighting up the gun today on the FB, but the slider is making dudes take poor swings.

In his last game last season, he was actually getting outs while being unable to get by on power, doing the old changing-speeds-alternating-sides-of-the-plate thing. I was actually impressed before he walked off in pain. Here's hoping he stops trying to rediscover his bazooka for a bit, pitches with his guile, and if the power returns, it'll be a blessing.

3 good innings for Hahhvey. Meaningless game, sure, but it makes me happy.

Centerfield Mar 05 2018 07:20 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

I'm reading 3 scoreless for Harv, sat between 92-95 mph. Threw a lot of off-speed stuff that seems better than last year.

Got a good stream from the Reddits, casting to my basement while I work. Not too shabby. This is how I hope to spend Opening Day as well.

Centerfield Mar 05 2018 07:32 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

Watched the Nimmo HR on my phone. I think Nimmo could round the bases twice in the time it takes Rickey Henderson to round them once.

Edgy MD Mar 05 2018 07:55 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

When I was kid, ST games always seemed to begin on or about March 5, so I'm mentally willing to write off the games that happen before then. But my constitution is incapable of declaring any game as "meaningless." And if there's any meaning to be drawn from the games to this point, it's that Brandon Nimmo is suddenly the team's best offensive player.

A Boy Named Seo Mar 05 2018 08:23 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

Last AB was a triple that died in the CF's glove, but Reyes has been absolutely scorching the ball today.

Tigers smashing away the shutout in Drew Smith's 2nd inning

Edgy MD Mar 05 2018 09:05 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

The meager six hits were augmented by five walks today. That's the winning stuff! Be like Nimmo!

John Cougar Lunchbucket Mar 05 2018 09:06 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

Ty Kelly makes a nice play to end it, Mets win the damn thing

d'Kong76 Mar 05 2018 09:11 PM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

Expect the Mets!

Edgy MD Mar 06 2018 03:55 AM Re: ST IGT March 5 DET at NYM

Hey, I'm watching the replay and I just realized Andres Gimenez was in the house and got to make his fake MLB debut, pinch-running for Luis Guillorme in the bottom of the eighth, and then taking over at shortstop for the ninth. The ball finds you. On the first play, a single got by him on a ball he deflected before it snuck into left-center. It could have gone for an error and maybe would have during the regular season. It was a hot shot, but he wasn't playing in or anything. And then a ball in his vicinity went for a double after it ricocheted off of David Thompson's glove, and he was forced to chase it into left. He was somewhat tentative over whether he or Borenstein should grab it, and Victor Reyes hustled into second with a double. Smith blew the shutout, but the kid gloves didn't do him any favors.

Very encouraged with Harvey. He seems calm, in shape and throwing free.
