If I ever have more kids I’m naming them all Nimmo.

So the Vargas era continues to not go particularly well.

The Mets stake Vargas out to a 5-3 lead and Vargas promptly goes out and gives up an absolute bomb to Aguilar.

Rockin' Doc May 26 2018 09:31 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

Following the HR by Aguilar, Vargas gives up a double to Shaw and a single by Saladino to tie the game.

Rockin' Doc May 26 2018 09:56 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

Rhame comes in and picks up where Vargas left off. The last three Brewers have gone walk, triple, and single. Now Braun steals second to get into scoring position.

Frayed Knot May 26 2018 09:59 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

It's Rhaming on my parade.

Rockin' Doc May 26 2018 10:23 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

What a surprise, Ramos gives up two runs without surviving a single inning. There just isn't much relief available in the Mets bullpen.

Gwreck May 26 2018 10:23 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

Wait. AJ Ramos was allowed to pitch in what was a close game? Has Mickey fallen and hit his head?

Centerfield May 26 2018 10:26 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

Ramos sucking is the least surprising thing in the world.

DocTee May 26 2018 10:31 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

When the hell is Swarzak available? Or any of those half-dozen minor league middle relievers we acquired at the trade deadline?

Swarzak got hurt in ST and then hurt again after briefly appearing for the Mets. I read that he's slowly making his way back. Edgy knows better than I do but none of the "bounty" that the Mets genius GM acquired last season for Bruce, Granderson and Reed are any good (other than one guy who is in A ball). Meanwhile, what are they going to do with Vargas and Ramos? They aren't going to send them down or cut them because that would mean Sandy would be admitting two mistakes.

Edgy MD May 26 2018 10:44 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

I think there's plenty of good there. Meanwhile, I've never seen a 1-2-5 double-play before.

Rockin' Doc May 26 2018 10:46 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

With the bases loaded with Brewers (what a surprise), The Mets turn the rare 1-2-5 DP.

If any quality is found there, it’s by accident. The intent wasn’t to get talent. It was to unload salary. If any of them turn into anything it will be fortuitous.

Edgy MD May 26 2018 11:00 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

Cabrera doesn't look like his legs are OK.

Of course it isn't by accident. Lots of teams that are losing trade expensive veterans in the last year of their contract. They still look for talent. It happens all the time.

Centerfield May 26 2018 11:07 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

Some prioritize talent. Some prioritize dumping salary. We know which category the Mets fall into.

Centerfield May 26 2018 11:15 PM Re: IGT 5/26 Mets-Brewers Vargas v. Anderson Vargas day! 4:1

It’s pretty well determined that the Mets could have brought back better talent had they eaten salary. They chose not to. They could have had better talent this winter but elected to sign Vargas.

After the last two games, I'm actually glad that MLB blocks me for Atlanta games. I'm pretty sure I can find something more constructive to do with my time than to sit and watch the mess that the Mets have become.

I was complimenting your knowledge of the Mets farm system and you replied with condescension. Learn to take a compliment.

Rhame closed out the Mets game one victory in this series with a scoreless ninth just two days before. He had been un-scored upon in 4 1/3 innings covering four games since his his recall.
